We've spared no expense this episode as dino disaster flick #JurassicPark (1993) sinks its teeth into franchise reset #JurassicWorld (2015). Who'll be left a tyrannosaurs wreck?!

Clowns are sinister, you say? Don't know where you got that idea. These anonymous clowns hail from either the early 20th century or your nightmares, take your pick.

Never noticed the small plaques in the ground beside the Clarendon Dock Pump House. Worth a visit when out for a socially distant walk or cycle! @StJoesBelfast

54 years ago, the village we serve, was torn apart. Today, like every year, we remember the children and teachers who never made it home from school on 21st October 1966, and everyone else affected by the events of that awful day. We will never forget. #Aberfan

#AndyWarhol commissioned #robertmapplethorpe to shoot me for #interviewmagazine. An ex-girlfriend took the photograph when she moved out of my apartment. A gentlemen bought it at auction and returned a pristine copy to me. It will hang on my wall again after 32 years

Sarah Biffen, painter, died #onthisday in 1850. Though born without limbs, Biffen held her paintbrush in her mouth. Initially exploited as a sideshow attraction, she eventually became a favourite of Queen Victoria and is mentioned in three works by Dickens. #gloriousGeorgians

It's #WorldReadAloudDay - in Tudor times reading aloud wasn't just for children, but was considered a suitable occupation for aristocratic women, even the Queen and her ladies would read texts aloud - perhaps all of us could take a leaf out of their book?

The trouble about working in #HeritageInterpretation is you can never go to an #exhibition without cross examining the interpretation! Despite its leanings to Hollywood, @TutankhamunLDN really works @saatchi_gallery #Excellent
