I'm delighted to be here at the British Library to celebrate the publication of my latest book. I have illustrated one of my favourite ever children's books, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll. The original Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was illustrated by Sir John Tenniel, one of my favourite illustrators. He was born 200 years ago, so it's a very special year. And we're going to have some readings from Alice in Wonderland, and I'm going to be doing some drawing. Curiosa and Curiosa cried Alice. She was so much surprised that for the moment she quite forgot how to speak good English. Now I'm opening out like the largest telescope there ever was. Goodbye, feet. For when she looked down at her feet, they seemed to be almost out of sight. They were getting so far off.  I wonder who will put on your shoes and stockings for you nowadays. I'm sure I shall be able. I shall be a great deal too far off to trouble myself about you. You must manage the best way you can, but I must be kind to them, thought Alice. Or perhaps they won't walk the way I want to go. Let me see. I'll give them a new pair of boots every Christmas. And she went on planning to herself how she would manage it. They must go by the carrier, she thought. And how funny it would seem sending presents to one's own feet, and how odd the directions will look. Just at this moment, her head struck against the roof of the hall. In fact, she was now rather more than nine feet high, and she at once took up the little golden key and hurried off to the garden door. Poor Alice. It was as much as she could do, lying down on one side to look through in the garden with one eye. But to get through was more hopeless than ever. She sat down and began to cry again. You ought to be ashamed of yourself, said Alice.  She might as well say this, to go on crying in this way.  But she went on all the same, shedding gallons of tears until there was a large pool around her, about four inches deep, and reaching halfway down the hall. After a time, she had a little pattering of feet in the distance, and she hastily dried her eyes to see what was coming.  He came trotting along in a great hurry, muttering to himself as he came. Oh, the Duchess. The Duchess. Oh, why didn't she be savage if I kept her waiting? Alice felt so desperate that she was ready to ask help of anyone. So when the rabbit came near her, she began in a low, timid voice. If you please, sir. The rabbit started violently, dropped the white kid gloves and the fan, and scurried away in the darkness as hard as he could go. Alice took up the fanning gloves, and as the hall was very hot, she kept fanning herself all the time, and she went on talking. Dear, dear, how queer. Everything is today, and yesterday things went on just as usual. I wonder if I've been changed in the night? Let me think. Was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think I can remember feeling a little different. But if I'm not the same, the next question is, who in the world am I? Oh, that's the great puzzle. And she began thinking over all the children she knew that were of the same age as herself to see if she could have been changed for any of them. I'm sure I'm not Ada, she said. For her head goes in such long ringlets, a mind doesn't go in ringlets at all. And I'm sure I can't be Mabel, for I know all sorts of things, and she. Oh, she knows such a very little. Besides, she's she, and I'm I.  I'll try if I know all the things I used to know. Let me see. 4 times 5 is 12, 4 times 6 is 13, and 4 times 7 is... Oh dear, I shall never get to 20 at that rate. However, the multiplication table doesn't signify. Let's try geography. London is the capital of Paris, and Paris is the capital of Rome, and Rome, no. That's all wrong. I'm certain. I must have changed for Mabel. I'll try and say, how doth the little? And she crossed her hands on her lap, as if she was saying lessons, and began to repeat it. But her voice sounded hoarse and strange, and the words did not come the same as they used to. How doth the little crocodile improve a shining tail, and pour the waters of the Nile on every golden scale? How cheerfully he seems to grin, how neatly he spreads his claws, and welcomes little fishes in, who've gently smiling jaws. Beautiful soup, so rich and green, waiting in a hot terrain, who for such dainties would not stoop? Soup of the evening, beautiful soup, soup of the evening, beautiful soup. Beautiful soup, beautiful soup, soup of the evening, beautiful, beautiful soup. Beautiful soup. Who cares for fish, game, or any other dish? Who would not give, or else, or to be, anywhere, only a beautiful soup? Anywhere, only a beautiful soup, beautiful soup, beautiful soup. Soup of the evening, beautiful, beautiful soup. There is the most fantastic tea party in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Alice takes directions from the Cheshire cat to the March Hare's house, and when she arrives she finds everyone sitting down to tea. There's their March Hare, the Hatter, and a very sleepy door mouse, all sitting down to tea. There was a table set out under a tree in front of the house, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea at it. A door mouse was sitting between them, fast asleep, and the other two were using it as a cushion, resting their elbows on it and talking over its head. Very uncomfortable for the door mouse, thought Alice, only as it's asleep, I suppose it doesn't mind. The table was a large one, but the three were all crowded together at one corner of it. No room, no room! They cried out when they saw Alice coming. There's plenty of room, said Alice indignantly, and she sat down in a large armchair at one end of the table. Have some wine, the March Hare said in an encouraging tone. Alice looked all round the table, but there was nothing on it but tea. I don't see any wine, she remarked. There isn't any, said the March Hare. Then it wasn't very civil of you to offer it, said Alice angrily. It wasn't very civil of you to sit down without being invited, said the March Hare. I didn't know it was your table, said Alice. It's laid for a great many more than three. Your hair needs cutting, said the Hatter. He had been looking at Alice for some time with great curiosity, and this was his first speech. You should learn not to make personal remarks, Alice said with some severity. It's very rude. The Hatter opened his eyes what very wide on hearing this, but all he said was, Why is a raven like a lighting desk? Come, we shall have some fun now, thought Alice. I'm glad they've begun asking riddles. I believe I can guess that, she added aloud. Do you mean that you think you can find out the answer to it, said the March Hare? Exactly so, said Alice. Then you should say what you mean, the March Hare went on. I do, Alice hastily replied. At least I mean what I say. That's the same thing, you know. Not the same thing a bit, said the Hatter. Why, you might just as well say, I see what I eat is the same thing as I eat what I see. You might just as well say, added the March Hare, That I like what I get is the same thing as I get what I like. You might just as well say, added the Door Mouse, who seemed to be talking in his sleep, That I breathe when I sleep is the same thing as I sleep when I breathe. It is the same thing with you, said the Hatter. And here the conversation dropped and the party sat silent for a minute while Alice thought over all she could remember about ravens and writing desks, which wasn't much. The Hatter was the first to break the silence. What day of the month is it, he said, turned to Alice. He had taken his watch out of his pocket and was looking at it uneasily, shaking it every now and then and holding it to his ear. Alice considered a little and said, the fourth. Two days wrong, sighed the Hatter. I told you, Butter wouldn't suit the works, he added, looking angrily at the March Hare. It was the best butter, the March Hare meekly replied. Yes, but some crumbs must have got in as well, the Hatter grumbled. You shouldn't have put his in with the bread knife. The March Hare took the watch and looked at it gloomily. Then he dipped it into his cup of tea and looked at it again. But he could think of nothing better to say than his first remark. It was the best butter, you know. Alice had been looking over his shoulder with some curiosity. What a funny watch, she remarked. It tells the day of the month and doesn't tell what a clock it is. Why should it, muttered the Hatter? Does your watch tell you what year it is? Of course not, Alice replied very readily. But that's because it stays the same year for such a long time together. Which is just the case with mine, said the Hatter. Alice felt dreadfully puzzled. The Hatter's remark seemed to her to have no sort of meaning in it, and yet it was certainly English. I don't quite understand you, she said, as politely as she could. The door mouse is asleep again, said the Hatter, and he poured a little hot tea onto its nose. The door mouse shook its head impatiently and said, without opening its eyes, Of course, of course, just what I was going to remark myself. Have you guessed the riddle yet? The Hatter said, turning to Alice again. No, I give it up, Alice replied. What's the answer? I haven't the slightest idea, said the Hatter. Nor I, said the March Hare. Alice sighed wearily. I think you might do something better with the time, she said, than wasting it in asking riddles that have no answers. You knew time as well as I do, said the Hatter. You wouldn't talk about wasting it, it's him. I don't know what you mean, said Alice. Of course you don't, the Hatter said, tossing his head contemptuously. I dare say you never even spoke to time. Perhaps not, Alice cautiously replied, but I know I have to beat time when I learn music. Well, that accounts for it, said the Hatter. He won't stand beating. Now, if you only kept on good terms with him, he'd do almost anything you liked with the clock. For instance, suppose it were nine o'clock in the morning, just time to begin lessons. You'd only have to whisper a hint to time and round goes the clock in a twinkling. Half past one, time for dinner. I only wish it was, the March Hairst said to itself in a whisper. That would be grand, certainly, said Alice thoughtfully. But then I shouldn't be hungry for it, you know. Not at first, perhaps, said the Hatter. But you could keep it to half past one as long as you liked. Is that the way you manage, Alice asked. The Hatter shook his head mournfully. Not I, he replied, re-quirrelled last March. Just before he went mad, you know. Pointing with his teaspoon at the March Hair. It was at the great concert given by the Queen of Hearts. And I had to sing, twinkle, twinkle, little badge. Oh, I wonder what you're writing. You know the song perhaps? I've heard something like it, said Alice. Well, it goes on, you know. The Hatter continued in this way. Up above the world you fly, like a tea tree in the square. Twinkle, twinkle. Here the door mouse shook itself and began singing in its sleep. Twinkled. And went on so long that they had to pinch it to make it stop. Well, I'd hardly finished the first verse, said the Hatter, when the Queen fall downed.  How dreadfully savage, exclaimed Alice. And ever since that, the Hatter went on in a mournful tone. Who won't do a thing I ask? It's always six o'clock now. A bright idea came into Alice's head. Is that the reason so many tea things are put out here? She asked. Yes, that's it, said the Hatter with a sigh. It's always tea time and we have no time to wash the things between wiles. Then you keep moving round, I suppose, said Alice. Exactly so, said the Hatter. As the things get used up. But what happens when you come to the beginning again, Alice ventured to ask? Suppose we change the subject, the March Hatter interrupts yawning. I'm getting tired of this. I thought the young leader tells us a story. I'm afraid I don't have one. I'm afraid I don't know one, said Alice, rather alarmed at the proposal. Then the door mouse shout, they both cried. Wake up, door mouse! And they pinched it on both sides at once. Now we're going to meet one of my favourite characters in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, and that is the Queen of Hearts. And the Queen of Hearts is very, very good at two things. Playing a very unusual sport involving flamingos and hedgehogs. It's called croquet. And ordering people's heads to be chopped off. When the procession came opposite to Alice, they all stopped and looked at her. And the Queen said severely, who is this? She said it to the neighbour of Hearts, who only bowed and smiled in reply.  And turning to Alice, she went on, What's your name, child? My name is Alice, so please, Your Majesty. Said Alice very politely, about she added to herself, Why, there are only a pack of cards after all. I needn't be afraid of them. And who are these? said the Queen, pointing to the three gardeners who were lying round the rose tree.  How should I know? said Alice, surprised at her own courage. It's no business of mine. The Queen turned crimson with fury and, after glaring at her for a moment like a wild beast, began screaming, Off with her nonsense, said Alice, very loudly and decidedly, and the Queen was silent. The King laid his hand upon her arm and timidly said, Consider, my dear, she is only a child. The Queen turned angrily away from him and said to the Nave, Turn them over! The Nave did so very carefully with one foot. Get up! said the Queen in a shrill, loud voice and the three gardeners instantly jumped up and began bowing to the King, the Queen, the Royal Children and everybody else. Leave off that, screamed the Queen. You make me giddy. And then, turning to the rose tree, she went on, What have you been doing here? May it please Your Majesty, said too, in a very humble tone, going down on one knee as he spoke. We were trying. I see, said the Queen, who had meanwhile been examining the roses. Off with their heads! And the procession moved on, three of the soldiers remaining behind to execute the unfortunate gardeners who ran to Alice for protection. You shan't be beheaded, said Alice, and she put them into a large flower pod that stood near. The three soldiers wandered about for a minute or two looking for them and then quietly marched off after the others. Are their heads off? shouted the Queen. Their heads are gone, if it please Your Majesty. The soldiers shouted in reply. That's right! shouted the Queen. Can you play croquet? The soldiers were silent and looked at Alice as the question was evidently meant for her. Yes, shouted Alice. Come on then, roared the Queen, and Alice joined the procession, wondering very much what would happen next. It's a very fine day, said a timid voice at her side.  Very, said Alice. Where's the Duchess? Hush, hush, said the rabbit in a low, hurried tone. He looked anxiously over his shoulders, he spoke, and then raised himself up on tiptoe, put his mouth close to her ear, and whispered, She's under sentence of execution. What for? said Alice. Say, what a pity! The rabbit asked. No, I didn't, said Alice. I don't think it's at all a pity. I said, what for? She boxed the Queen's ears. The rabbit began. Alice gave a little scream of laughter. Oh, hush! The rabbit whispered in a frightened tone. The Queen will hear you. You see, she came rather late, and the Queen said, Get to your places! shouted the Queen in a voice of thunder, and people began running about in all directions, tumbling up against each other. However, they got settled down in a minute or two, and the game began.  All ridges and furrows. The croquet balls were live hedgehogs, and the mallets live flamingos, and the soldiers had to double themselves up and stand on their hands and feet to make the arches. The chief difficulty Alice found at first was in managing her flamingo. She succeeded in getting its body tucked away comfortably enough under her arm, hanging down. But generally, just as she had got its neck nicely straightened out and was going to give the hedgehog a blow with its head, it would twist itself round and look up into her face with such a puzzled expression that she could not help bursting out laughing. And when she had got its head down and was going to begin again, it was very provoking to find that the hedgehog had unrolled itself and was in the act of crawling away. Besides all this, there was generally a ridge or a furrow in the way wherever she wanted to send the hedgehog to. And as the doubled-up soldiers were always getting up and walking off to other parts of the ground, Alice soon came to the conclusion that it was a very difficult game indeed. The players all played at once, without waiting for turns, quarreling all the while and fighting for the hedgehogs. And in a very short time, the queen was in a furious passion and went stamping about and shouting, off with his head, or off with her head, about once in a minute. Alice began to feel very uneasy. To be sure, she had not as yet had any dispute with the queen, but she knew that it might happen any minute. And then, thought she, what would become of me? They're dreadfully fond of beheading people here. The great wonder is that there's anyone left alive. She was looking about for some way of escape and wondering whether she could get away without being seen when she noticed a curious appearance in the air. It puzzled her very much at first, but after watching it a minute or two, she made it out to be a grin and said to herself, it's the Cheshire Cat. Now, I shall have somebody to talk to. How are you, Gadnan? Said the cat, as soon as there was mouth enough for it to speak with. Alice waited till the eyes appeared and then nodded. It's no use speaking to it, she thought, till its ears have come or at least one of them. In another minute, the whole head appeared and then Alice put down her flamingo and began an account of the game, feeling very glad she had someone to listen to her. The cat seemed to think that there was enough of it now in sight and no more of it appeared. I don't think they play at all fairly, Alice began, in rather a complaining tone and they all quarrelled so dreadfully one can't hear oneself speak and they don't seem to have any rules in particular, at least if there are, nobody attends to them and you've no idea how confusing it is, all the things being alive. For instance, there's the arch I've got to go through next, walking about at the other end of the ground and I should have croaked the queen's hedgehog just now, only it ran away when it saw mine coming. How do you like the queen? Said the cat in a low voice. Not at all, said Alice. She's so extremely just then she noticed the queen was close behind her, listening. Though she went on, likely to win that it's hardly worthwhile finishing the game. The queen smiled and passed on. Who are you talking to? Said the king, coming up to Alice and looking at the cat's head with great curiosity. It's a friend of mine, a Cheshire cat, said Alice. Allow me to introduce it. I don't like the look of it at all. Said the king. However, it may kiss my hand if it likes. I'd rather not, the cat remarked. Don't be impertinent, said the king, and don't look at me like that. He got behind Alice as he spoke. A cat may look at a king, said Alice. I've read that in some book, but I don't remember where. Well, it must be removed, said the king very decidedly and he called to the queen who was passing at the moment. My dear, you would have this cut removed. The queen had only one way of settling all difficulties, grade or small. Off with his head, she said, without even looking round.  There's a porpoise close behind us and he's treading on my tail. See how eagerly the lobsters and the turtles will advance. They are waiting for the shingle. Will you join the dance? Will you, won't you? Will you, won't you? Won't you join the dance? Will you, won't you? Won't you, won't you? Won't you join the dance? You can really have no notion how delightful it will be when they take us up and throw us with the lobsters out to sea. But the snail applied too far, too far and gave a look at the scars. So he thanked the whiting kindly who would not join the dance. Would not, could not, would not, could not, would not join the dance. Would not, could not, would not, could not, could not join the dance. What matters it how far we go, his scaly friend replied. There's another shore, you know, upon the other side. The further off from England, the nearest is to France. Then turn our tail, the lost snail, come and join the dance. Will you, won't you? Will you, won't you? Will you join the dance? Will you, won't you? Won't you, won't you join the dance? Wake up, Alice dear, said her sister. Why, what a long sleep you've had. Oh, I've had such a curious dream, said Alice. And she told her sister, as well as she could remember them, all the strange adventures of hers she'd just been reading about. And when she had finished, her sister kissed her and said, it was a curious dream dear, certainly, but now run into your tea, it's getting late. So Alice got up and ran off, thinking while she ran as well she might, what a wonderful dream it had been. Welcome to this live section of the event. I really hope that you enjoyed about as much as I did. There were some wonderful readings from Chris. So we've got some questions, but we've always got time for a few more. So if anyone would like to send some in, please do. You can use the Q&A button on the bottom of the screen. So Chris, first question, and it must be a popular one. What is your favourite character from Alice in Wonderland? Who is your favourite character? Oh goodness Helen, good afternoon. I was loving the sound effects. At one point there was a thunderstorm that seemed to break, with a lovely rolling thunder. And that was during the reading about my favourite character. I think I might have said that. And that is the Queen of Hearts. A little bit terrifying. She's one of these sort of characters with sort of quite dark hair and usually anyone with sort of very dark hair can be a little bit intimidating, Helen. I don't know whether you've found this. I couldn't possibly say no. No, no, no, not myself. Though that might be a personal thing. I'm going to turn on my camera. And you can see here this is some of the drawings and they speeded up the drawings as I was going. And I've just done a few. And here we are. There is a Queen of Hearts or possibly Helen. And I loved your I think that was my son. My son just came along and just had a little look in the corner behind you. Just where your laundry is, Helen. Yes, that is true. Yeah. It's nice to be immortalised. He'll be very excited to know that he's been on the screen. And we have another question, actually, which is a really interesting one. And when I was thinking of when I was watching you, which is what advice would you give someone who wanted to start work as a book illustrator? That is an excellent question, Helen. And this is my advice. I actually have it right here. This is my advice. Get one of these. It's a notebook. I get mine. I don't want to recommend maybe other stations. But I always go to Paper Chase. That's one of my favourite places. And this is a Paper Chase one. It's got brown paper on the cover. And when I was at school, I used to get into terrible trouble drawing on my exercise books. And they used to say to me, Chris, you'll never get anywhere doing that sort of thing and how true they were. But I love notebooks. Particularly brown paper ones that I can draw on.  Just get into that habit. I always start my notebooks with a drawing of a mouse in a raincoat. Just something I do. When notebooks are so lovely, you don't want to spoil them. You've got to do your best drawings in them. Well, I pre-spoil all my notebooks just by drawing a mouse. And then I feel free just to draw anything that comes into my head. And I think that's one of the lovely things about sketchbooks is that they can be sort of personal spaces where you can just draw for the sheer fun of it. And ideas and stories can come into your mind as you draw. But just get into that habit. Be that really interesting person who's sitting somewhere on a park bench or in a coffee shop. Be that interesting person with a notebook and people can think, I wonder what that person is thinking. Don't they look interesting? So keep a notebook. Draw on it every day. Oh, very lovely. Thanks, Chris, for really, really lovely illustrations. Our next question is asking you how did you go about reimagining the iconic scenes from Alice in Wonderland? Was there anything in particular that inspired you? Did you? Well, here is the book that arrived actually this morning. Helen, isn't that fantastic? It arrived this morning. It is very heavy. And you know, it's very difficult because as a great fan of Alice in Wonderland I got to say I was a little bit nervous about attempting to illustrate a book that I had loved ever since I was very little. And so what I tried to do is not to think too much about the drawings I loved done by the great Sir John Tennille and try and just imagine what Alice might look like a book as if Lewis Carroll had just written this book and had sent it to me and said, Chris, would you mind illustrating this book? So I tried to imagine what a book like this might look like now. And so really my Alice is a great big picture book. And I just wanted to really fill it up with as many pictures as I could. So it begins, I love the way it begins with Lewis Carroll going on a picnic with the three little girls they're off to on one of those lovely Sunday picnics and he tells the story. And it all begins with the white rabbit and I wanted to fill it up with as many pictures as I could going all the way through. So just a very quick turning of the pages. You'll see I've illustrated almost every single page of the story and there are some really iconic scenes. This is one of my favourites where Alice can't actually get into the garden through the hall she's looking through a tiny door and she feels a little bit sad which is why she does begin to cry and a pool of her own tears forms and that becomes the way that she actually gets into Wonderland and here you have that little address that Alice is imagining writing so that she can send parcels to herself because she's grown so big. And just going to I suppose one of the most iconic scenes in the book and one of my favourites is the mad tea party with the March Hare and the Hatter there and I couldn't draw the Hatter looking anything like John Tenniel's Hatter because I loved John Tenniel's drawing of the Hatter so much and I thought how can I do something completely different and so I decided that my Hatter would be a girl she's a bit of a mad Hatter so why not and the minute I did that that sort of freed me from worrying too much about past books and one of the wonderful things about Alice is that it is I suppose one of the first ever picture books of first ever children's books in a sense and so it's been given to all of us as illustrators and readers to reinterpret and it's still as fresh and as strange and wonderful today as it was all those years ago when it first came out. Yes it's wonderful I have to say I have a question for myself here so I've just asked myself this question but it fits quite well with what we've been looking at with your illustrations the question is asking what my favourite object was in the library's exhibition of Alice in Wonderland and I feel like I have to say or I do feel that the original manuscript the so Lewis Cowell's original manuscript and what was part of the reason I love it is because he obviously really struggled with the illustration he was determined to illustrate it himself in that first version that he gave to Alice Lydell but it was incredibly difficult and it took him an awfully long time to do it and I noticed I don't know if it's just a coincidence or but your Alice looks very much like Alice Lydell as she appears in the original manuscript in the manuscript she has quite a similar kind of bobbed hair and it reminded me a little bit of his Alice and I don't know if the viewers will have seen but the Alice in the original manuscript is a a photograph because Lewis Cowell was a very keen early photographer and he photographed her and he actually stuck the photograph on top of something and it was only about 30 years ago that we realised that actually underneath he'd also drawn an illustration of her so it's I love the manuscript because it's the original manuscript obviously but I also love it because it shows how hard it was for him to create that it was a I think telling the story he probably found quite easy but as a non and not very confident illustrator anyway I think you found it a particular challenge I found Helen the photographs that Lewis Cowell took of Alice and her sisters was a wonderful starting point for me to reimagine the story as if told to these three little girls and it made Alice seem like a real character for me because in my head and I'm sure for so many of us the Alice we all imagine is the fair-haired girl that John Tenniel drew and she's wonderful but what I loved about the actual Alice Little who listened to Charles Dodson, Lewis Cowell tell the original story is that she's got she looks rather contemporary and she does look like a little girl who in a sense doesn't have a sense of of her sisters but she has this rather singular hairstyle almost as if she's quite a character and isn't conforming to the stereotypes and I love that about her and I think some of that comes across in the way that Lewis Cowell sort of tells the story Yes, that's a very good point actually as you say you feel like the story was told for her so she must have been both an inspiration for it so this is another good follow-on question actually which is were the characters in the original story based on real people and did you base any of your illustrations on your friends and family? That is an excellent excellent thought I think that I obviously if you've ever sort of met my daughter sort of Katie in the mornings you can probably imagine there is more than the look of a door mouse I think thank goodness she's not actually listening to this otherwise I'd get into trouble rather than a tea party I think Katie probably needs a cup of coffee to wake up in the mornings I did love drawing the door mouse a lot I better hide that before I get into trouble but I suppose the other sort of characters that inhabit the book I rather loved drawing the difference of playing cards and they're each different but the gardeners who are rather love the fact that they are in fact spades because they're gardeners so they are sort of the suit that does those sort of work and of course the soldiers are in fact clubs because they carry clubs so there's a nice sort of order to the wonderland hierarchy in the playing cards and I think when I came to draw the card people possibly and this happens I think to a lot of illustrators I know as well that we slightly accidentally include people we might know so I think a few of those gardeners possibly might look like friends of mine but Helen I'm not going to be more specific OK that's fine thank you we've had a question actually from Charlotte Harrison and Charlotte asks which piece of advice will be best suited to these very strange times in which we find ourselves hmm well possibly not following instructions like eat me and drink me because quite frankly that can just cause all sorts of problems particularly if there's a sort of cleaning product or something around you really don't want to put it into oh hang on a minute I've just flipped out there oh dear OK I better move on very quickly but that's actually I think that he might actually be a very good wonderland character I wonder if sort of Donald Trump could make a very good Queen of Hearts what a thought I'm going to put that away no I think I think that one quote from Alice that I absolutely love and she says what is the point of a book without good conversations and pictures and as an illustrator I can't think of a better motto so for me I love to put lots and lots of pictures into all the books that I do because I agree with Alice what is the point of a book without good conversations and pictures in them and Alice in Wonderland I think is a book of just great conversations and I think that came across from the readings that we were just listening to they are wonderful conversations being held by very very sort of colourful and eccentric characters who are just fantastic to draw so it's just one that I think is a real reason why I think this book is a great classic wonderful thank you now we've had a question here from Grace who's six thank you for your question Grace she says could you tell me more about the cow turtle right well the I think the mock turtle in the book is a rather wonderful creation because it's it's sort of drawn in a way to represent the original Victorian mock turtle soup which was actually I think had extraordinary ingredients in it I think it had sort of parts of a cow in it possibly calves foot jelly might have formed part of this mock turtle soup and so I think it's quite interesting that notion maybe Lewis Carroll was one of the first people to I'm sure he was the first person to do this to imagine what food might look like if it was a sort of character so the mock turtle is the ingredient to mock turtle soup and I just wonder what you know what other sort of characters might look like in this sort of world if they actually did come to life so this is possibly a hot noodle that's possibly I think that might be that and a possibly I don't know this is getting into another sort of area this could be a a big Mac no I'm going to stop wonderful thank you and Joshua asks what was your favourite part of the book to illustrate oh I'm sorry what was your yes sorry what was your favourite part to illustrate from the book well let me see I had a lot of fun with this episode in the book and I'm just going to turn to the page that has it and this is after Alice has swum through the lake of her own tears which must be an extraordinary thing to do here she is swimming through the lake of her own tears and she arrives on the shore of Wonderland and the mouse tells an extremely long dry story about Anglo-Saxon archbishop in order I think the mouse thinks of it tells a very dry story everyone will come dry listening to it which is an interesting concept I've been to those author events and my favourite I think was this which is the caucus race and here we have this lovely sort of it's a double page so it gave me lots and lots of room and I really enjoyed drawing the different animals there's a dodo running the wonderful dodo the duck there's a hedgehog but the other thing the other thing I really enjoyed doing is putting my own animals in because very conveniently Lewis Carroll mentions a number of the animals and then says there were other animals of all sorts so we've got a guinea pig but I enjoyed putting in a koala bear why not a koala bear and there's a ring-tailed lemur just because I thought that would be fun and there is an ibis who I first saw in Sydney as I was at the Sydney Writers Festival and everywhere in the parks there were ibis and they're like our London pigeons and they look so extraordinary and they go around with their great long beaks pecking in the undergrowth in the parks wandering around and they look so extraordinary and everyone in Sydney just walks past doesn't even notice them now so there's a toucan I enjoyed putting a toucan in as well and it was a lot of fun with this because I got to draw lots and lots of animals in a caucus race it looks like the American presidential election maybe that's just me Arthur's question is in a question and he asks which character did you find the most difficult to draw now in a way I think I've already just sub-mentioned this I think it was the Mad Hatter and I think the Mad Hatter for me is so iconic and that's a challenge for any illustrator to try and get away if you're going to do your version of such an iconic children's book as Alice in Wonderland I suppose the challenge is to try and do something just a little bit different and so yes I thought the Hatter was the most difficult to draw and then I started to think about the Hatter and I thought about the wonderful 10-year-old illustration where the Hatter has a top hat and it's a lovely top hat and so I thought my Hatter would also have when at the Tea Party would have a top hat as well but I thought it could also double up as a bit of a flower pot so we could have a few flowers at the top there and also I thought why not make it almost as if it's the beginnings of a top hat before the fabric is put on it so it's because the Hatter is a hat maker and then I thought well when we see the Hatter again there's no reason for her to have the same hat because she's got lots of hats because she makes them and she wears the things that she makes so the next time we see the Hatter in my version she's got a green hat on just because she's got many different hats that she can wear and it's got another price in it instead of 10 and 6 because lots of her hats have different prices and I think that maybe if I got to draw the Hatter many many times she can have lots and lots of different crazy hats that she could be modelling and in fact a little while ago I just did just for fun I did a little book that I published myself and it's called the hats of Norfolk because I have a cottage in Norfolk that I go to and in fact I worked on Alice in Wonderland last year in Norfolk so I was thinking about hats and I did a little book called the hats of Norfolk and they're just crazy hats named after Norfolk villages around me so that's one for the collectors and I like to think that the Hatter maybe originally came from a little village just outside Norwich that's my theory that's my contribution to Lewis Carroll Scholarship that's great thank you Claire has sent in a question and asked did you have to go to art school to become an illustrator I did go to art school I didn't have to go to it I love that it sounds like this is sort of an edict you have to go to art school in fact for me it was the exact opposite I sort of felt that I had to go to university I thought that was an important thing for me to do to do something academic and then my art teacher said to me he said Chris you like drawing don't you and I said yes I love it so why don't you go to art school and I said can I he said I don't see why not why not go to art school and so I did and it was the best thing I ever did because it just meant I could draw and draw and draw the whole time which I just absolutely loved so I went to art school I went to Brighton art school and my tutor was a wonderful man called Raymond Briggs and it's because of Raymond that I decided what I wanted to do was become an illustrator because Raymond just did these brilliant brilliant books that's not Raymond by the way that's the snowman which is one of Raymond's most famous books and Raymond was fantastic because he was just very very encouraging and he was the person who taught me to keep a sketch book and to draw on it every day so thanks to Raymond I became an illustrator and started to write my own books but it's been lovely actually to get the chance to illustrate a classic book like Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and what I'm going to do after we finish here is I'm going to go back to my studio at the bottom of my garden where I'm working at the moment and I'm going to carry on working on my next project which is through the looking glass and what Alice found there and I'm having a lot of fun this time instead of card people with chess pieces and imagining what the world of the looking glass world looks like so I'm drawing a great big patchwork landscape of all the places that Alice goes to when she steps through the looking glass Great, wow that sounds like a very exciting project and something good to get your teeth into as we go into autumn and dark and nice and cold weather so thank you so much Chris that's wonderful I particularly enjoyed a drawing of my clothes which are clean behind me on my bed but thank you so much thank you for your drawing and your answering questions but also for your involvement with the filming of the library it's wonderful thank you also to Elf and Vivi and Stephen and Helen, it's been great to have those readings today thank you to the director Kate Gollidge and just a little bit of a plug for me you can get some copies of Chris's lovely book he just showed us on the screen if you go via the British Library Shop and you can click a little button with this video we would also love your feedback online events are still a reasonably new thing for us and we'd love to find out what you think of them Helen, can I just say very quickly, a big big thank you to the British Library which is one of my absolute favourite places in London I always pop into people watch in the British Library I hope that we are going to be able to do that again very soon and the British Library is such a special place and I think now more than ever we need libraries we need these amazing places where we can go into the world of books and we can explore the fantastic world of literature so let's not forget libraries at this very difficult time and try and support them as much as we can absolutely I could not I could not agree more, thank you so much Chris for bringing it up and a very special thank you to all of you who tuned in today for your wonderful questions a special hello to those joining us via the Living Knowledge Network which is a network of libraries across the UK and we hope to see you again soon thank you thank you

No the fractured Jamal must see all the buyer Munich The problem is is like sports releases keep happening. Yeah, so usually we break that there's not like a release that we're trying to like You know Yeah, I'm gonna force for a golden generation for Leipzig We got um, I mean they're in stock for personal so yeah We have a couple customers who buy a lot of personals of it. I'm a Bella Coach at peers of tomorrow Bochum Yeah, I also were the last time he listed a couple of them. They were they were there They were like pulling teeth to fill them. Yeah college your college jury refractor for Augsburg That's another thing is like if if we see things not not feeling we just won't listen for a bit And then maybe give it a little time. Yeah, I'll feel easier. Oh nice a blue Erling Hollands Numbered 146 of 150 for Borussia Dortmunds Dortmunds had a great break Good stuff there auto coming up.  I don't think I can do it. I don't think I can do it Whoo fryberg rookie super fractor auto Kevin Shadda one of one Gigantic hit congrats fryberg What a card He's got a sick auto to congrats on that That's a biggie. He's pretty solid man Andrew s Andrew Andrew is in chat. I know he was oh Man oh Man that is absolutely phenomenal. That's gorgeous Stickers a little slanted that is that is right Andrew there is What a hit Auto is completely on the sticker though. It's clean too. Yeah, that's sick. What a freaking monster SC fryberg Kevin Shadda rookie super fractor auto right there Congrats Andrew That's a pretty good one man He doesn't have rookie cards on all their products, but he's pretty he's pretty decent got Eklund camp refractor for her at the Berlin Prism Arne Meyer Augsburg 46 of 199 Grab a box and wrapper. I'm not sure Stick was kind of slanted. I'm not sure does that affect greed. I don't think so usually well might Centering it wouldn't affect auto because the auto itself. Yeah, it's completely fine golden generation. You want a sector? But we'll set a box Andrew. I like I said, I'm not sure and then in that situation. What would have what tops would do? Give you some of the free. I don't know Magenta Leon Gretzka for Bayern Munich 180 of 399. Yeah, I mean he should he should also I mean, yeah He should move leagues In the next like year too and he should also be able to play for the German national team I would think refractor Alfonso Davis or Brian Munich. So And and and then and then if I mean if they if Friberg didn't sell I mean that means that Friberg Jamal busy all that means he's probably worth more. Yeah interesting. Yeah, I mean a super fractors good But a rookie auto super factor. Yeah, heck. Yeah, dude Watching pristine, maybe you'll hit a super fracture and pristine too. I'll take over he hears that tomorrow for Union Berlin Thanks for joining our baseball breaks and and our breaks over here, man. Congrats on the hit Refractor Kasunu labor Q's in yeah, he might not get a ton. He should be you know in the mix though They just have a lot of young talent currently coming through Should definitely be Switching clubs, maybe a better club not that Friberg isn't good for Bundesliga, but Bigger in the scheme of things in the scheme of Europe, I guess Got that one camp here is the tomorrow Last box everybody sandwich Soccer sandwich, that's right Every day we do soccer sandwich every day now Rafael Geek, which refractor for Augsburg Thursdays to do soccer sandwiches. That's what we'll do Also raking Saturdays do Saturday soccer sandwich Last auto the break here refractor auto Manuel Riemann.

Congrats Andrew. Thanks again everybody. We've got museum collection baseball coming up next


Hi, my name is Alexandre Bourgen. I work at 10scores.com with my two great partners over there. And I've given part of my code to type fast to Rory for the previous presentation. But I'll put mine on debug mode, so that I'll try to do it fast, but it might have some errors. So this presentation is about Ansible, which is a great deployment solution. It's written in Python. We're going to have some Python code, but it's really some, it tries to be language-anostic. So this is, who knows Puppet? Raise your hand if you know Puppet. Raise your hand if you know Chef. CF engine. It's of that category. It's to do deployment in machines or instances or servers. Things like that. It's very cool. It's written by the guy named MpDahan, which wrote Cobbler. And he worked at Puppet Labs, went out of there, and wrote something awesome. That's Ansible. So written in Python, the only dependency you have on your machine is actually Python YAML and Python GINJA for the templates. And it runs in a push mode, on the contrary of Puppet. So it pushes through SSH, so you don't need to deploy another PKI, through SSH. And the only dependencies on the nodes is actually Python itself, because it's going to push the modules, execute them, and interact using JSON. So it's completely language independent in the sense how the modules are written. So we're going to try to go that. It's going to be a demo. And we're going to use, if you have any question, you stop me, and I've named Rory, if he doesn't understand, he screams and says, I don't understand. So you have a responsibility. Thank you. So the installation, so I'm going to go in zoo. That's where we're going to work. And we normally get cloned. I'm going to copy the Ansible checkout here. Whoops. OK, move. Yes. OK, I have Ansible checkout. So I would get cloned. That's what I'd get. And that's mostly all I need to have Ansible installed on my machine. And I would need, though, to have Python, YAML, and Python JINJ as a dependency. Those two things, if we want to speed up things and deploy to a lot more servers faster, we don't get into that. They're not required for starter. And then that's how we'll activate, it's a simple environment, change the path. And that'll activate the Ansible environment. So if we try that, it would be like Ansible checkout, hacking, and sit up.  So Ansible's to develop and test modules. Ansible Playbook is what you use to deploy. The Playbook is like the Chef cookbook thing, or puppet smush, I don't remember. So Playbook is going to run thing. You can reverse the pattern with Ansible pull. We're not going to go into that today. So to start, we're going to create, actually I'm going to copy the little activate script here. Vim, no. So that's a little script we can use to set the host's file. And that host file is our inventory. That's where we have our list of servers. And we can even have a script that goes and pulls that from EC2. And then you'll have variables and all the hosts set in the inventory. Then we activate, we change the PS, and we'll load the insecure private. I'm going to use Vagrant just to provision the virtual machine, OK? Not used to that one. And I have a little Vagrant file here. The only thing I need, shoot, see? There's a debug mode here. So I change precise, and I have downloaded that. So I can just use Vagrant up when the machine launches. And so it launches a new machine plane. So we can test a lot of iteration of our Ansible. We're not going to do that much today. And now it's booting. It's going to forward port 2222 on local hosts. I can connect to it. And we're going to write our first host file, zoo hosts. And so the host file, we're going to call that moonodes, OK? Or no, zoo nodes, so that it's better. And the machine is going to be here. And I can set variables 123bo. And also, I want to have a special SSH port variable that will tell that machine to connect on that port. That's used internally. So we could use this way, or we could define variables for that group in vars, OK? And that way, we'd be able to connect to that machine. Everyone, all that group through port 2222, OK? Now, next thing, we want a playbook. That's the simplest thing you can get. The playbook we're going to call zoo nodes a playbook. You don't need the playbook extension. It's just that to differentiate. OK, so an empty, it's good. OK, so here, we're going to specify zoo nodes. That means this play here, you see that's YAML. Who doesn't know YAML syntax? OK, good. You go read about it. So the dash, that means that there's a list. This is the first play, which is an ordered sequence of tasks that are going to be run to ensure, in a depth-potent way, what's going to be on the remote server. So we're going to define hosts here. We're going to say we want to execute sudo but connect as vagrant user, OK? And we're going to have a series of tasks here. First one, let's say write to slash tmp. And the action will be shell echo boo. And let's say I want to push there, myvar. A lot of oo stuff, huh? So that's what we have here, myvar. And that's going to all bubble up and stack. If you have variables attached to the instance and into the group, then other variables will gather all the way. And that will be usable inside your playbook. But it's all managed from the central node, which pushes action over there, OK? And what do we want to do right now? Ansible playbook and zoo nodes. Do you think it's going to work? Password. Password. What are you talking about? OK, so zoo nodes. Zoo nodes doesn't work. See, I changed one thing and then it's out. So let me show you. We can here connect zoo vagrant SSH. Now we're in the box, OK? If you go to slash tmp, there's nothing there. Play, recap, hosudo. Oh, wait a minute there. Sorry? Sorry. So you define a host called zoo nodes. Yep. And then you pass the playbook in and da, da, da, da. Sorry. You define a host called zoo nodes. You pass the playbook in and it identifies you have the host zoo nodes and it reads the playbook to figure out what to do with the zoo nodes. Ansible playbook. Sorry, I'm not listening to you. OK, let's try this. I didn't activate the thing. So I'm going to activate it. So actually, it'll use the host file in the current directory. Otherwise, it uses ansible. You can have slash etc slash ansible. So right now, I'm going to use the current host. Sorry for that. So this is going to run, connect to the first step. It's going to gather facts, then run the task, write the thing over there, and then. So you'll see that. We're going to get into that. So first step, see, we didn't specify anything for gathering. In fact, it's implied. We can disable that by going to the playbook here and say gather facts false. This way, next time, it's not going to be run. And see that task, it wrote change because it returned that it did a modification. But let's look at that gather change step. It's actually a simple step. That's a zoo node. That's how we test one module. That gather step step, gather fact step, is the setup module. And we're going to tell on the command line to use sudo and use vagran because we're not going through the playbook here. We're testing the module directly. And that will return. See, it'll connect to the machine, run the setup module. And that will return a series of facts. See, that's the protocol. Any module that returns things is going to be JSON. And the specific thing about ansible facts is that it's going to add all these variables to the inventory so that you can use that. In every place, you can use them in some variables. In 10 places, you're going to deploy. So let's say we want to modify. So all these variables are there. And you have also the information about the module. Did it change something or not? That's how you ensure it in potency. So each module will verify things. Does it need to change anything? It'll change and return. It has changed. Otherwise, it'll say, nothing's changed. So what we could do here, we could have another step and say write MOTD and action. Let's say we'll say templates. So recently, we could get rid off of the action. Because you notice here, shell is actually the module name and the rest of the parameters. So we can nowadays use shell directly here. So we can take out action just so you're not confused when you see other things. So SRC is going to be template. And MOTD and destination is going to be ATC and MOTD. Got it? Templates, we're going to create that little file here, make the directory templates. And we could say welcome to our machine. And then we'll have many things here. OK. So let's say we'll see we have in the list all sorts like Ansible LSB. That's what normally we get in MOTD, the number of the machine. We want to keep those information because they're important. So we're going to fetch them and inject them back into the MOTD. So Ansible LSB. So note here, this is Jinja2, simply. So it uses semantics of Jinja2, and Ansible system, and then Ansible kernel, and then Ansible, what is that, architecture. You got that? So you're being controlled by Ansible. OK, a problem called Alex. Something like that. And then we're going to push that. Did I add the step? Yes. So normally that template thing is going to run it as a template, inject variables, parse them, and then push that over there. And what if I run it first time, not this one? So see? That's bad, oh, typo. LSB is undefined. Oh, you know why? I disabled gather facts. So it doesn't go and grab those variables and inject them. So if I take that out, it'll go, gather the facts, and then those variables will be available to be injected in the template. So you might have those kind of dependencies. Run that. It says change for MOTD. But if I log out and log back in, see welcome, you're being controlled, problem Alex. OK, we have these things. And that'll reflect the information from that particular machine. Got it? If I run that again, next time, see MOTD changed. No, it's OK. It verified, check MD5 hash on both sides. I don't need to upload, so it didn't transfer anything. So that's where you get the idempitency. Have any questions? No, there's no pseudo-password. OK. So he was asking, where's the pseudo-password? That Vagrant machine has admin privileges, so it gives you, just like Ubuntu machines on EC2, you don't have to provide a password. Otherwise, we'd be using SSH keys instead. We're not going to use that password-patching thing. Can you set the ownership and permissions of the file? Yeah, of course. So the template here, if I show you Ansible Module template, it has all those things and also the file, which you can set with the permissions and everything. It'll ensure, even the file hasn't changed. It'll ensure the permission with chmod. It looks like that, chmod, and then owner, and then all those things. So you can set those things and they'll be fixed. So that would be done with most especially file, but template supports that as a kind of fallback. It extends the thing. So no more questions right now? After, sorry. So we'll have, let me just show you NTP, we'll say action pkg NTP. And we'll tell the state here. And then action service, we'll say name NTP. That's how we specify things. Enabled, yes, state started. Oops. And then we'd have, for example, name create abrogé user, and we'd have user, and we say name abrogé. And over here, we could authorize, authorize, whoosh. See the demo. It's a beta version of his software. You're on location, and it's not OK? Yeah? OK, we'll check that. So abrogé, and we'll say the key here. We can specify that special who ha. And it'll go and grab the file on the disk. It'll push that as a parameter, just like I typed it in here. So it's going to read it. And what do you think it's going to work? I'm not sure. Let's try that. Nope. So name is for documentation purpose. If you don't put a name, it's going to use the full line. So I suggest you base that out a little bit because people are going to need to maintain that. And say, give out your intention.  Never remember. So that'll install NTP. It'll use the apt thing and send everything there. So can I go and SSH to that local machine? It was a blank machine, so obviously didn't have that, port 2222. See, I can log in right now, and I'm being controlled. OK? And NTP. See? It's running. Great. OK, so next step. Any questions? That apt command, that's built-in to answer? Yeah, so those things are built-in. The only dependency on the node part I said it was Python, that's if you want to use the standard modules. Otherwise, you can have a series of bash modules that you'll use to fit your purpose. There's a yum module there. There's a full list I can show you at the end, or you can read your own on your own. OK, good question, boy. OK, now let's write a little module. That's the interesting part. So see that module? It goes over there. How can you write something like that? I would like to have something that says, like, set the hostname, buddy, OK? And then we'll say set hostname, and a hostname will be Zoomoo Boo. OK, that's a great one. So how would we make that? Set hostname doesn't exist with Ansible. So we're going to write it. We're going to put that in library underneath our thing. And we'll say set hostname, OK? Directory. OK, I have a little snippet. You grab that piece of code. That's where Python has a little advantage here. OK, Python mode. OK, you can inject a little part of Ansible's code right into your, see those comments here? When Ansible reads that, it'll inject that module common, which declares Ansible module. It has the logic to decipher the JSON, and then has a simple thing to transfer JSON. So it does help you with required, and it returns error messages. Please set that thing. And it has a couple of things. So that's kind of a stub you can get. And if you use Ansible-doc, you can define some documentation and send it out to Ansible for your own purposes. OK, so what we do here will be quite simple. We want one parameter, right? Hostname. First thing we want to do, we want to know, what's the actual hostname? So we're going to fetch data. Look, do we need to change anything? Change it. Otherwise, well, not change it, but alert the control center that we don't want to do that. So current hostname would be kind of run hostname, right? And then we're going to grab standard outputs, strip the rest. And wanted hostname will grab from the module, param's hostname. So that's the one here. And then we could verify if current hostname equals wanted hostname, then we'll output something. Say change false. Got it? Otherwise, exit, that's loaded here by the module. Otherwise, we'll run actually hostname with the one we want. So wanted, OK, run, boom. And we'll module exit JSON, change true with message, change hostname, format hostname, wanted. Got it? You think that will run? I mean, it's quite simple, right? You check. That's all you need for idempotency. It's very simple. And you can write that in any language. Let's try that. You think it'll work? Whoa, changed, OK. What about the hostname in there? So it's zoomuboo. What if I do it again? Great, so it did not change this time. You saw that going? First time changed. Second time, OK, don't need to change anything. OK, any questions? I thought I'd be finished by then. No questions? Yeah, of course. So if you have a set of hosts, you'll go into your host. Let's say I want to do that and replicate that one here. We have this one here, and then, I don't know, poomoo zoo. And if you run this, it'll run on both in parallel. So obviously, you might write concurrent stuff here, but it'll go everything in parallel. And you can have a kind of a rotate thing. So if you have 30 hosts, you can say, I want to do that by batch. Run the full thing for 15 hosts, then continue with the 15 next hosts. So there's also ways to tag your things. You can, so let me show you in the zoo modes. Oh, one thing, that could get pretty full pretty fast, right? So what we'll do, we can put that in common.yaml, OK? And copy all those tasks, put them here. How many space do you think? Three? OK, good. And then, we'll have here an include, task common. So here, nothing has changed. But you can regroup things, and you call those ordered set of tasks one place, OK? Now, if you want to tag your things, you could say, OK, I want to repeat this one here. You could say, OK, when I update my app, I want to do that. Or you have a git module that's going to pull out a git. If you want to update your app, you don't want to go back and install all its dependencies and compile everything. Just update, I don't know, the git repository. So you'd tag certain steps, and on the command line, you could go here and say tags, update app. It's going to run only things, except gather facts, that are tagged in there. So you can select just a subset of things to do certain operations, which is pretty cool. So this blows away fabric and all its funniness. Also, if you want to install many things, let's say, or we could say with items, boo, moo, zoo. And then use that here as item. And what will happen, so I'll do that without the tags, it'll go and execute these steps many times. See, and that'll be executed many times. And you can have full Python structure there. So the animal thing. So you can have dot item, dot, blah, blah, blah, and have full construct of data structures. Yes? Yeah, there's a dot if I decide. I didn't go over there. So there's a system that has handlers. You can say handlers, whoops, handlers, and then include or define name or restart Bob. And that's going to be an action like service name, name Bob, state restarted, OK, something like that. And then at some place, you can have the task to say notify, or like a shell, boo, something like that. And then notify, restart Bob. And that'll keep the order of notifications and at the end of the playbook is going to call all those restarters. And only once if they've been notified many times, OK? Otherwise, you can hand code that with in your common things. You could say, OK, the output from that or the output from, I don't know, authorize, cure, create user, you can say register to this long variable. And after that step, I don't know if you can see that, after that step, you'll be able to use dollar this long variable to introspect anything that was inside the JSON. So dot change, for example. And in the next step, there's another little tag like that specific, that's only if. And you could put any Python conditional there and you can verify, oh, do I need, has that changed or that changed, then have conditionals to execute or not, like a shell to restart, a command, a simple command. So there's a lot of flexibility there. OK, I think that's going to be it, unless there's some very, yes, fast. Error handling, if you want to debug, and then you can test your own modules. So you see everything, it's scp-ing, running over there, downloading, you can have all the details, and you normally test the module itself. So you can have the JSON output or any output, as a matter of fact, going through a standard out. You can do that remote or locally also. It's pretty well designed. The guy's pretty awesome. Yes, yes, am I all right? OK, fast, fast.


Today we spend the wheel of weights. We will go position by position and each player must line up with the weight that we land on the wheel. So if my left guard needs to be 165 pounds, I guess my left guard will be Tyreek Hill. Additionally, the wheel has a burger and a salad. The burger is a 250 plus pound jackpot and the salad is a jackpot, but 250 pounds or lighter. Our quarterback will come in at a whopping, oh, this is great. That's a little light actually. It's a little like 175 pounds. Okay, yeah, listen, I'm glad it's not 315. I don't think Big Ben's in the game anymore, you know? Now the weights that I can use are anywhere between this weight and the next highest. So 175 pounds up to 184 pounds. If they're 185 though, I cannot use them. Keep in mind, I don't care what you or I personally think a player's weight is, I'm gonna be using what is on their Madden card. What is Lamar Jackson weighs? He 205? 212. Okay. The lucky Lamar was like 175, but not a massive shocker here. The absolute lightest quarterback in the game is Kyler Murray, but he's so much heavier than people give him credit for. He's also taller. I know compared to really tall guys like Trevor Lawrence, he is, but he's 5'10, 207. 90 overall Kyler Murray, 5'10, 207 pounds. It's actually pretty nice card. It came out a long time ago, but it's still pretty nice. Next up, we're gonna take a half back. I'm starting out with the two most important. Oh, this is such a good weight for a half. Oh, it might be a little heavy. Wait, burger, burger! Oh no, AJ Dillon. Oh dude, this AJ Dillon is so, so, so good, but he's 247. Like he's right there, he's three pounds off. 250, dude, 250 plus for a half back.  I wonder what King Henry is. You think King Henry's over that? King Henry's 250, I have to go King Henry. This is King Henry right here, 96 overall. 255 pounds, he's got 96 speed, he's got 97 break tackle. None of that's really all that important. What's important is his ability freight train King Henry. For four or five plays, it's on, and then it needs a little charge up time, but he just dominates everybody with this ability.  You don't need any of it, like you don't need goal lineback. You can get tank for one AP and bruiser for free. I usually don't worry about abilities this early in the game, but I just wanted you guys to understand why I can't take Vita Vaya, even though I'd love to. This King Henry puts every other half back in this game to shape. Next up is a fullback. We wanna be high in the weights here as well. Am I gonna double burger? Am I really gonna double burger? Oh, oh, oh, I was so close right there. That's still a really good weight for a fullback. The heaviest fullback in the game is William Perry, the refrigerator at 335 pounds. Is a Koye 255? Oh, Nigerian nightmare's 253. We can't take Christian and Koye, one of my favorite fullbacks. However, there is a new fullback who I've never used. Not to say a lot of teams in the NFL don't even use fullbacks anymore. It's a dying position. Either way, there is a brand new Jacob Johnson veteran, six foot three and 255 on the dots. He's got 87 lead block, 87 impact, 88 run block. He's no Nigerian nightmare. I'll have to do. Why don't we do wide receivers next? I'll start my wide receiver one who's gonna be a big, big boy. 275? See, I think of a guy like Megatron, right? But Megatron could not have been more than 240 pounds. The absolute heaviest wide receiver in the game is Chase Claypool at 238. The next heaviest is why I just mentioned Megatron at 236 which means I am gonna have to take Chase Claypool here. There is not a single Chase Claypool on the entire auction house. And Jamar Chase's best card is a 92. I don't know who works for EA, but they should be fired. Also today's video is sponsored by SeatGeek and with over 28 million downloads, SeatGeek is the number one rated ticketing app. And I'm really excited to go to some Phoenix Suns games coming up. Here's Clippers at Suns as low as $21 a ticket. Green is well priced tickets and red is bad. In this example, there's a lot of good deals. When looking for the best ticket, SeatGeek even ranks each ticket price. Green is good and red is bad. So I have a lot of good options for this game. And you can use my code MMG for $20 off your first order at SeatGeek. That's $20 off your first purchase with promo code MMG. Enjoy the rest of the video. On a bummer, you guys, there's not a single Chase Claypool. Looks like we're gonna have to get Calvin Johnson. Look, I don't make the rules, you guys. He's not on the auction house. I don't know what to say. 94 overall, Calvin Johnson is my wide receiver. Do not mind if I do. He's two pounds off. He's one cheeseburger away from Claypool anyway, all right? All right, our wide receiver one is the biggest possible wide receiver two. He's gonna be small, but he could be fast. Actually, I take that back. 185 might be a very optimal wide receiver size. Who's the lightest wide receiver? The lightest wide receiver is Tutu Atwell, five foot nine, 160. You know who's 185 pounds on the dot? Which is really impressive, by the way. I don't know if this is accurate. Tyreek Hill. The Cheetah, 96 overall, five foot nine, 185, 97. Speed, the absolute fastest car in the game, and it ain't close. It's 185 pounds on the dot. It doesn't get any better than that, gentlemen. We got Cheetah and Megatron. And you know what? I'll make my wide receiver three Chase Claypool. My wide receivers are cracked. I don't want to cheat. I'll use Chase Claypool at wide receiver three. All right, that moves us to our left tackle. All right, if we ever wanted some heavy boys, it would be right now. Is there even gonna be a 205 pound left? There's no way. You can't be a left tackle in the NFL in way this much. Okay, our left tackle, since it's literally impossible to get anyone as light as they wanted, we're on the heaviest end. This has gotta be good, I assume, 355. Okay, Jordan Milada is 365, so we can't get him, but we're in the right zone here. Orlando Brown's the only one in there. He has an 88 overall, but it doesn't exist right now. We're gonna have to go with 78 overall, Orlando Brown. However, they're way different amounts.  So this Orlando Brown is 345. The other one is 363. What did he put on 18 pounds in between the cards getting made? I don't believe that. We have only one more option. Mackay back then, there's one on the auction house. He's 67, 364. He perfectly fits here as well. All right, it moves us to left guard. This is gonna be tough. The old lineman on this is gonna be tough unless I stay in the heavy range. 345 feels better. After seeing how thin 355 was, I like this better for left guards. But I don't know, I feel like left guards are a lot smaller. The absolute heaviest left guard is Landon Dickerson at 332. I find that interesting. 91 overall, Landon Dickerson, the six foot six, 332 pound left guard. It is massive for a guard. Six foot six is crazy. I feel like most guards are like 6'3. Onto center next. I bet you're the perfect weight to get for a center be like 305. I'm cracked. I'm actually cracked. 315 for our center. The heaviest center is Bradley Bozeman at 325. John Feliciano is 325 as well. Oh my God. Look who is 380 and 19 pounds. Ryan Jensen, the right tornado, the best center in the game. If you guys aren't familiar with this card, he has his own chemistry. It makes your left and right guard have plus seven agility, plus four speed, plus seven excel, and plus one run block finesse. It's so good. That could not have gotten any better an absolute jackpot at center for 315. Let's get it. All right, that moves us to our right guard. Dude, I'm actually clutching up so hard on this. Right guard's gonna be 335. It's a little heavy for a right guard. Larry Allen is 330 pounds, the greatest right guard of all time. Larry Allen, 94 overall. Larry Allen, six foot three, 335 on the dot. Dude, I needed this. I needed this luck for quarterback. I don't need this luck for my own line. Beautiful spins here. I got Kyler to show for it. Our final offensive line position is right tackle. We've been great thus far. It's gonna be huge. He's gonna be massive. 365 right tackle, that could be, there's gonna be like one right tackle is just super heavy and he's gonna throw this whole thing off. Daniel Falele is the heaviest guy in the league. He weighed in at 410 at one point, but Madden has him at 390. My only option at right tackle is not that bad, but it could certainly be better is 85 overall, Trent Brown. And there's not a single Trent Brown on the auction house. I'm gonna have to go Daniel Falele. Dude, I know I'm not saying that name right. I don't know how you say buddy's name. You know what? This is actually sick for the wheel of weights, the absolute heaviest player in the entire league. My boy Daniel right here at 6'8", 390.  He's horrible. So the right side dude, if they've got anybody halfway decent coming off the edge, I'm smoked. The last position on offense is our tight end. Now that I say it out loud, I don't know how heavy tight ends are.  Dude, we are just camping in the 300s right now. I think there's a Dexter Lawrence tight end. The absolute heaviest tight end of the game is Dexter Lawrence. 90 overall coming in at 342. There's a Taylor Decker at 318. And I have to go over, which means my tight end is Dexter Lawrence.  But it is Dexter Lawrence my boy. And his blocking stats are crazy. 95 run block. We've just built a dominant run game team. We could even run, you know, we could pull out some read option with Kyler Murray. 90 overall tight end promoted to starting tight end. All right, for the wheel of weights, this is our half time. We're gonna take a look at our offense then we'll move on to defense. All right gentlemen, here is the offense. The interior of my line is cracked. Jensen's boosted to a 97. He boosts Larry Allen to a 96. And Dickerson to a 93. I also have a strategy at it for my old line. So that's why everybody's boosted. But my tackles arguably the most important are Horrible, Mackay Bekton and Daniel Folele. I don't think that's his name. I don't care. This is Dexter Lawrence, Megatron Cheetah as our wide receiver one and two, which is incredible Chase Claypool, not so great. The best hat back in the game undisputed, the best center in the game undisputed, the fastest wide receiver in the game, a mediocre quarterback and an all right fullback. This is an interesting offense. I'll say that. All right, here's the final head count. Yak him up Cheetah and short in elite. King Henry with tank, bruiser and freight train. Larry Allen with nasty streak and puller elite. Landon Dickerson with post up. Kyler Murray with dashing dead eye. And Dexter Lawrence with Vanguard, post up.  I'm excited. And puts my offense at a 90 overall. Let's go on to defense.  So, oh boy. I'm gonna have one of these smallest detackles in the league at 245. It's gotta be an out of position detackler. This is hardly gonna be possible. The heaviest detackle is 366. The lightest detackle is Brian Cowart at 300 pounds. So they're all, they're all between 300 and 366 and look at just, look at this nightmare. There's a 94 Jeffrey Simmons, he's 300 and one.  There's another guy at 300 pounds. It's Jonathan Allen. This is the best car Jonathan Allen has. That's so crazy to me. He is tied for the absolute lightest detackle at 300 pounds. So as I will have to do, I can't really put anyone else there. All right at left end. I honestly wouldn't mind 245 here. Oh my God. Oh my God. Okay. I'm him. 245 pounds. Brian Burns is 249. DeNeal Hunter falls in that range at 252. We're going Brian Burns. I really like the special team of the wheat cards. It's like the Matthew Berry selections or whatever. I don't really know anything about it. They're kind of fire. This is a 91 Brian Burns at 249 pounds. He's just gonna be a speed rusher off the edge and he can contain really fast QBs like Lamar. So let's grab our right end. Our left end is locked up. Our right end is gonna come in at a, whoa, this is good. Actually, is this good or is that too heavy for a right end? I don't know. There is one perfect right end for us fits in nicely and a solid 93 overall is Harrison Phillips. Harrison Phillips 63307. He's got what looks like a detackle build to me but I guess we'll call them a right end and throw them on the squad. All right onto our user middle linebacker. Very important position. I'd prefer they weren't 345 pounds. No, why does this exist? Oh my God, why does this exist? I thought for sure I'd get to re-spin because there's no middle linebacker even in the vicinity of 300 pounds. But of course I'd be dead wrong. There's a 90 overall middle linebacker. Joe Thomas at six foot six, 312 pounds. He has 85 speed, I guess. That's actually a lot better than I thought. What's his change of direction? 81.  We need elite address. You're like a super lead address. I don't know about Harrison Phillips. This is huge. Burger it, burger it, burger it, burger it. Don't even need a burger because 265 is great. That is a great size. That's another team of the week and not the best option. But we'll take what we can get and what we can get is 91 overall right outside linebacker Zidarius Smith 64272.  That's a huge linebacker. But he's added to the squad Joe Thomas and Zidarius Smith at linebackers right now. All right, next up is left outside linebacker. They're like 215's the sweet spot. See, I don't want to be this heavy. I don't want to be this heavy to 95. That's huge for a left outside linebacker that is absolutely massive. Absolutely clutched up. This is huge. Dude, I thought this was gonna be a nightmare. We got saved by the heaviest left outside linebacker in the game. Carlos Dunlap has a 91 overall left outside linebacker six foot six, 285, 89 speed, 92 excel. My linebackers are 90, 91, 91. It's, we actually kind of got out of there safe for how heavy those wheel spins were. Now where we're really in trouble, I think is my secondary. Dude, we've gotten like no light wheel spins and we're gonna need a strong safety here. Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit, sit, sit, sit. I don't think anyone's gonna be 165 because that is so small, but this is way better than super heavy. The absolute lightest strong safety in the lead is Rodney McLeod. If you gave me a hundred guesses, I never would have guessed this. 88 strong safety Rodney McLeod. 5, 10, 183, not a stud by any means, but we're gonna make doing what we got here. Our free safety could be a user. Oh yes, oh salad, salad, salad. I haven't got a salad yet. Yes! Oh, we needed that so bad. Let's go! All right, any free safety 250 or less, that's virtually every free safety. In fact, it may be every single free safety. This may just straight up be a free safety jackpot. Heaviest free safety in the entire game is Julius Pepper's free safety, who's 295. So it's not an entire jackpot. There's also free safety Derek Henry, who's 255, but I can take anybody else. I think I have a pretty obvious buy here. My absolute favorite safety of all time, one AP crusher, 94 overall, 217 pound Steve Atwater. This is a nostalgic guy for me. He's also a top 10 safety. There are better safeties, you know, there's a 96 honey badger, there's a 96 Thomas Davis, 95 Rodney Lott, but he's still the best player on my defense right now, and I'm very happy to have him. Free safety is great, we're gonna go to corners next. We need light. Even, you know what, 175 is fine here. 165, I'm a little worried about.  Okay, Mike Hilton played such a good playoffs. He's such an underrated stud corner. I love Mike Hilton. I'm a Mike Hilton sexual. He's 59184, which means he has one pound underweight and he makes this weight class. 59 like sucks, it does, but I am excited to use Mike Hilton.  Although that could be good because it might be Carmichael. Carmichael might be the closest to this. I have to imagine he is, he's not. There's a 90 overall slot corner. Who's 340 pounds? Are you shitting me? Sam Adams? Dude, shouldn't you be like founding the United States? Shouldn't you be writing the Declaration of Independence? Dude, 94 Excel 88 speed? He might actually be kind of cracked.  His hip power is 93. Okay, that is our corner two. Our final corner, it's actually really important. Our slot corner is very important. They're gonna be a great weight. This is like Rod Woodson, Charles Woodson. Spectacular final spin, 205 pound. Spectacular spin, 205 is gotta be the money way for corners, man. I don't think it gets much better than that.  A strong tackling physical corner at six foot 205. Mike Hilton, Rod Woodson, Sam Adams. Quite the secondary. Dude, I literally will personally hand any of you a million dollars if you ever go up against Sam Adams, Rod Woodson, and Mike Hilton in an online head to head game. All right, defense, what are we looking at? Oh, and by the way, sorry guys, I lost the footage, but I did do a spin for punter and I happened to land right on 207 pounds. So I got the Scottish hammer. You know, it was the only option available at 207 pounds. I just took them, you know, throw away really. I didn't even think about it. Offense is 12 out of 12, defense is 12 out of 12. The wheel of weights has built us an interesting team. Let's see if we can get a win with it. Cunningham, actually that is such a good top three to see as far as this deep in the game. This is gonna be a fair matchup. These are the grossest uniforms I've ever seen. His and mine, what are we doing here? We're doing here gentlemen. I guess Joe Thomas just gotta clamp up the middle. Ooh, dude low key. If I pick you off with Joe Thomas, no lurker bro, it's time to uninstall. All right, play action, do it, do it. Oh, Joey, Joey, Joey. He literally can't even get lurker. That's such an interception. Any safety picks that off. All right, let's split boys. I'm standing at water at this QB. I don't care who he's guarding. Oh, he's running it. That's good for us. Maybe not. Joey, Joey, let's not get, let's not let him do this to us. CJ2K back there wreaking havoc.  Oh wait, that wasn't, it was Harrison Phillips. Harrison Phillips blew that up. All right, everybody's got a blitz. We gotta get there. Let's go at water. It's play action. I gotta go back. No, go Mike. Mike Hilton got torch. No. Wait, why did you sack him? Oh my God, he was standing in the QB's face and he didn't sack him. Why did you?   He's going to feel the wrath of the Quad Father, bro. I can't wait to run. Hatback dives seven times and then score. A few moments later. Oh my God. I don't have Quad Father. I have King Henry. Whatever. It doesn't matter. You know exactly what I mean. Seven hatback stretches for King Henry. Let's go. Edge, 1,000% broken tackle. Another one. Ooh, way to go low. Smart man. There's one. We're going to motion out Jacob Johnson to kind of get a crack back block here. Should be easier for him to just kind of light up that linebacker.  Broken. Ooh, bad animation. All right, that's two. Broken. Ooh, but I'm not there yet. It's fourth and one. All right, Kyler, we're going to pass here. How's Cheetah not open? No! I had a wide open A, but he got to me so fast. Wait, am I dogwatered? Question mark, am I trash? You didn't have to say it. He's going to go with the stretch again. Joe Thomas. There's no way he runs this ball again. Okay. There is a way he runs it again, but Joe Thomas is there. Once it lights him up. And he's going to get positive yards on. That is ultra tilting. I can't believe that just happened. Oh, Joey. Joey Thomas, it's fourth and one. Now we're there. We're there. We're there. Look at Mikey Mike. Kilton said, not this time, buddy. Not this time. Oh, keep going, Hilton. Keep going, Hilton. Spin. Mike Hilton wasn't about to get torched like that. That's five. Nine. Mike Hilton on six, five megatron. Hell of a play. Now let's switch it up. First and 10. I see the cheat. I'm going to him. Great catch. Dude, we got to get Dexter Lawrence in here to block. What am I doing? I got to go single back, wing tight stretch. This should go right to Dexter Lawrence's side. Yeah, I like this actually. Is it too heavy over there though? Is it too overloaded? Not if you cut it back, I suppose. Second and seven. King Henry wide open, beautiful catch. Nice truck. Always got to go low on that, man. Great blocks, gentlemen. Oh, I need a better block on that. I said great blocks a little preemptively there. Well, clearly what we have to do is throw to Dexter Lawrence. That's what I've been doing wrong. Here's Dexter Lawrence. What did I tell you?  Dexter Lawrence caught that. Ooh, I just got it off too. Two minute warning, we are in field goal range. Just going to give it to him. I might have been able to keep that with Kyler. I didn't really read that. I'm going for it. I don't believe in field goals. They're a myth perpetrated by the government.  God, that pressure's hot, dude. I need those tackles. I got no right tackles. Ooh, Hendricks, the nice play. Second and six. All right, let's send a blitz. He's going to go play action. Hey, look who got home. Carlos Dunlap, third and six.  Look who's there again, Carlos Dunlap. More than six from his own 24. I'm sticking in cover three sky. We're killing him right now with this. We're there! Don't drop back or Joe! Get through him! Big boy! Don't tell us. Elite MLB plays. Elite drop back. Dude, we got to scramble with Kyler.  Look at that. Look at that line. Absolutely collapse up there. I'm going to go King Henry. I don't know if I would have gotten it anyway. Oh, Cheetah. Cheetah got him. Hell of a move, Cheetah! Fourth and one! I'm going for it. I'm going to use this whole clock, though. He's getting ready for me to do that exact same thing. Ooh, he's kind of like off sides right now. There's nothing open. Absolutely nothing. Full win coverage. Hey, we got fast boys there to make the tackle. He doesn't have enough time to score, I don't think.  Maybe I should have ran that ball. I got King Henry for one yard. I should probably run the bomb. Looking like the Seahawks out here. I got to beat this man cover somehow. Kyler's got to get cooking here. How does Cheetah look here? Ah, that was a zone, actually. That was zone coverage. He still is in zone. So let's go King Henry, break the first tackle, as always. This drive looks and feels better already. We're playing smarter and slower. Let's go get some points. Let's bring it a whip rod out of Cheetah if he's in man. Ooh, beauty. Great throw, Kyler. Tyreek's ability is kind of sick. Breaking all these tackles. Now let's run the ball. Let's keep him on his toes. Dude, wow.  I couldn't buy a yard. I'm going to go out route on Cheetah. Jesus, are you kidding me? Dude, Cheetah just rubbed straight into his man. Oh, that was horrible over there. So much bumping, and he can't get it. Oh, this is a pitiful offense right now. I've learned blowing him up. Dude, if I could just pick up a fumble, I'd feel a lot better. If I just took field goals, actually, if I believed in field goals, hell of a play. We have him bottled. He's got like 2.2 yards per carry. All right, this is play action. I'm just going to go get the quarterback. Yup, let's go. 4th and 20. I'm just going to blitz heavy. 4th and 20. I'm just not going to give him time. Get there. Got to make that. There's absolutely no way. What a hit. Oh, what a bomber. CJ2K is still bottled, but he's just chewing clock now. Maybe another play action. Could be the exact same play. Let me use your at water. Try and get a lurk here. Left side might be open. He's got nothing. That might have pulled him on a field goal range. I'm going to call it a timeout. Third and 13. We know this is a pass. Ooh. That was a feed, and I missed. And I missed again. Bomber. All right, let's see if Megatron and Cheetah. Oh, it's not man. Tampa two. Little play action, a little rifle to the slot receiver, Hines Award. Nice catch. She can put Megatron on a whip. There he is. Probably not the time to figure out how to play offense. Slash not throw interceptions, but you got to start somewhere, right? Cheetah, beauty. Please don't fumble. Let's go. Okay, keep it simple. Now I'm going to score now. It's just whether or not I can stop my defense. Ooh, it's a man. Cheetah on the one. No, I'm going to get stood up on the one again. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I have an insane interior. I have Derek Henry. Dexter Lawrence pole blocks here. This is a touchdown. It has to be. That's an offside, sir.  I'm going to get stood up again. Cheetah, I need you, buddy. What a catch.  Fully bailed, fully bailed. But I'll take it. I only have one timeout. He also has a two minute warning. Big one, Woodson.  He's taking so many crusher hits. Oh, Joey.  He's already fumbled twice. I seem to fumble again. Oh, he checked down. He doesn't want it. One more, Woodson. You got one more in you? Damn it. Hey, GGs, pitiful offense, but hey, the wheel of weights didn't quite pay off, but I had a good time building the squad. I never got to see a Sam Adams acrobat. I got to see a Sam Adams acrobat. It would have been a different story. Hey, well, appreciate you guys for watching as always. I hope you enjoyed. I'll see you in the next one. Peace.
