If you need a timeline cleanse you should know that Dexter Sol Ansell who plays Egg on A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms went to school as Egg for World Book Day.

Book Group

The last Thursday of every month was Book Group,
when the books would gather together to discuss Brian.

β€œIt’s no fun here any more,” remarked Bleak House, glumly.β€¨β€œWhy doesn’t he read us?” whined the Grapes of Wrath. β€œIt makes me so angry!” β€¨β€œI’m sure he only bought me so he can show me off to his friends,”
complained Ulysses, in a stream of self-consciousness.

β€œI bet he can’t even remember my name, The Idiot,”
muttered a voice from the Russian literature section.β€¨β€œThat’s because he avoids you like The Plague,” said another.β€¨β€œC’est vrai!” came a cry. β€œIt is like I do not exist.”

β€œLet’s not give up on him yet.” It was Brave New World.
After some Persuasion, they agreed to give him one last chance.β€¨β€œBe quiet!” cried Waiting for Godot with Great Expectations.β€¨β€œHere he comes now!”

Brian entered the room, with his phone.
He sat down and watched some videos of baby pandas falling over.
After an hour or so, he started googling cats dressed as celebrities.

On the shelf, the books waited with uncracked spines,
their silence speaking volumes.

A black and white image of a canal in winter, looking towards an old bridge, through which you can see stone steps leading up the side of a lock gate.

When I did activist training back in the neolithic era we were taught "don't give them an easy reason to dislike you: always push leaflets right through the letterbox, always carefully close gates"

The 21st century version of this, @libdems.org.uk, is USE ALT TEXT. It's not difficult.

Ink drawing with pencil colours on white paper. God, I don't make it easy for myself with these descriptions. Right then: in the foreground, a stripey floor from one end of the picture to the other, which is pink, light purple, dark purple and white. Not far into the picture, this ground arrives at a fence which is also the length of the picture. The top of it shaped like a row of curved mountains of different heights, and the stripes from the floor carry on up the fence. The middle section of the fence is being held up by a rope leading out of the top of the frame. Through this revealed square we can see four hills in the distance, alternately purple and yellow. Above this we see a kind-of comet - it's a person's head with an eye patch on, the other eye closed, and their hair is a stylised small cluster of blue and purple hills. Around this head is a yellow aura which becomes a trailing tail on the left. At the opening of the fence we can see four people, tiny compared to everything else and in silhouette. Apparently watching the comet, and one of them has their arms raised. Stood on the fence, either side of the opening, are two tall blue ghosts. Their bodies are long triangles and heads like upside down tear drops. The only details on them both are eye holes and a brown bow tie. The one on the left looks off into the distance, the one on the right glances down at the people.
