NORTH STAR RISING A THREAD
After the #PodBibleListeningParty I binged the rest of ‘ #northstarrising’ by @mikebithell. It was an immersive experience which offered me an escape from the monotony of lockdown.
The next day I listened again in full.

“I didn’t see Earth on there.”

“Grunk,” began Otis, “I want to tell you a story. It’s a story about a friend of mine, Steve. Steve and me used to work at Computer Planet. Weekends, back when I was at sixth form.”
