@DAaronovitch It was fun interviewing PJ O’Rourke just now at #hayfestival. The final question was about Ukip. PJ was clear that he didn’t care for ‘em.

@GrewalNadhia If that was you in the Tata tent tonight @simon_schama you have got the groove!

@RachaelAttwood Packing my bag for the Hay festival. Books, hay fever tablets, tickets. In that order.

@StephsAlive Greg Proops absolutely smashed it tonight! One of the most ridiculously intelligent yet hilarious humans on this planet.

@abitaylor9 I think I’ve seen enough children under the age of 5 in Hunter wellies and Barbour jackets to last me a while… #hayfestival

@JillLawless  Thing I learned from Ray Davies event at #hayfestival – there’s a Gregorian chant influence in “You Really Got Me.”

@EHolland8 Great weekend at the Hay Festival, my brain feels enormous and enriched and I will definitely be back next year!

 ‏@Hannah_Furness  Lynn Barber brilliant at #HayFestival. The interviewer she most admires? “Me”
