The Bradford Literature Festival begins…
We love @BradfordLitFest and all the people involved in making it work. Here we see the tech heroes – making sure the stuff we can't even hope to understand works. I did offer to say 'one two' for a bit but they had that covered too… pic.twitter.com/p2hNUf30dz
