1/ So, a few words about my friends at @MathsGear - the most wonderful online store for nerds everywhere.
MathsGear is the brainchild of brilliant maths & science performers @standupmaths @MouldS @jamesgrime @stecks - who have adapted brilliantly to evaporation of audiences...
2/ Where else but @MathsGear can one buy non-transitive dice? (Yellow beats red, red beats green, green beats blue, blue beats purple... purple beats yellow...)

3/ And where else but @MathsGear can one buy skew dice, which look weird but are actually perfectly fair? (Hurry: these sell out fast.) mathsgear.co.uk/collections/di…
4/ But it's not just dice. @MathsGear sell SIGNED books by geek legends such as @FryRsquared @TimandraHarknes @Bobby_Seagull @robeastaway @SLSingh @helenarney and @alexbellos: mathsgear.co.uk/collections/bo…
5/ But perhaps you'd rather have a maths T-shirt? Or a maths game? Or a cheeseboard with a protractor engraved upon it, for cheese-angle precision? mathsgear.co.uk/collections/ki…
6/ At this point you may have questions, such as "Can I buy a clock where the numbers are mathematical constants?" (Yes: mathsgear.co.uk/collections/ki…)
Or "is Tim on commission?" (No.)
7/ But I do have an ulterior motive. @MathsGear allows you to pre-order signed copies of my book, "How To Make The World Add Up".

Originally we thought 500 copies would be enough, but we blew through that number. Woo hoo!
8/ Not to worry: I've signed a few more. If they sell out like a pair of skew dice, which they look like they will, then I'll do my best to brave the coronavirus rules at the warehouse and sign even more.
But safest to order now while stocks last...
