Over 100 brightly painted eggs have turned up in Covent Garden - and are about to be scattered over London for an arty Easter egg hunt πŸ₯š

On World Book Day, here are the six books that I've read so far this year. They were all good reads, but I especially recommend Nightwatching. #worldbookday

I really enjoyed looking round the Stained Glass Museum in Ely today. It's fantastic to be able to get up so close to these beautiful pieces.

The Coat of Hopes at Ely Cathedral. A patchwork coat made, worn and walked by hundreds of people during its pilgrimage through the UK. #patchwork #craftivism #embroidery

I thoroughly recommend September 5. It built the tension right from the first few minutes and it kept me gripped to the end. #september5 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Azud...

Another fantastic show from Luxmuralis at Ely Cathedral

Education was different in the 80s

So the secret is out. The ITV team that made Mr Bates vs the Post Office has been making a drama about the phone-hacking scandal. Featuring David Tennant as Nick Davies. And Mr Bates himself (aka Toby Jones) as me. An altogether less heroic role for Toby, but he’s brilliant as always

Emotionally drained (in the very best way) after seeing Sir Matthew Bourne's New Adventures production of Swan Lake. Just as wonderful now as it was when I saw it for the first time 20 years ago. #SwanLake #ballet

Apple TV+ is offering free access from 3-5 January. I thoroughly recommend Ted Lasso. I have zero interest in football and I loved it! #tedlasso #appletv www.apple.com/tv-pr/news/2...

Thank you Birmingham Royal Ballet for a fabulous production of The Nutcracker at my favourite festive place

I finished making the last of my Christmas wreaths today. I had quite a few bits left over so I made this, which is now hanging on the shed. #gardening #inmygarden #wreath #christmaswreath

Last of my Christmas wreaths completed. Everything, including the base, has come from my garden. No wire used, so can go straight in the green bin/compost when it's past its best. #gardening #wreath #christmaswreath
