Awesome Eric Idle song interrupted by bits of @ProfBrianCox



The BBC are very good at this sort of thing. Personally I prefer the I Am The Walrus vid from a few years ago, though:



... but it's nice to see old Eric keeping his hand in.

[personal profile] amazing_holly's bedtime song

Those of you who have been following my adventures in parenthood will know that one of the things [personal profile] amazing_holly likes best is stars. She loved George's Secret Key to the Universe, and she has a bunch of books about stars from Zoo in the Sky to Cosmos, and she likes to sleep with her blind open so that she can look out at them at night.

Her lullaby, therefore, for many years now, has been Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.

Tonight, however, she decided she wanted something different, and she asked for something funny. I thought for a few minutes, and then I came up with this:



She loved it. I think it'll be a little while before I let her see the video, though.

Happy Birthday Monty Python

Most politics geeks will be celebrating with this video:

I know it's a cliché, but Python are a huge part of my growing up. I am very glad they are still considered to be worth watching. Happy birthday boys (and the occasional girl).
