The Goodies helped define my humour and view of the world as a child. This makes me unspeakably sad:

Tim Brooke-Taylor dies at 79 after contracting coronavirus, agent says

Tonight I am transcoding an Easter Service video, produced remotely by multiple local households, for best playback on Facebook. It’s already on YouTube.

And given the comfort it will bring to people in 12 weeks of self-isolation, this is time well-spent.

Prepping a video for the local church. Not how I expected to be using this kit…

Two children in martial arts uniforms appear to be having an online video session with an adult displayed on a tablet placed on a bookshelf.

Funny how my plans for the year have now largely boiled down to:

  1. Don’t die.
  2. Don’t go bankrupt.

Everything beyond that is a bonus right now…
