Read lots of Czech literature before I went to Prague and read but 3 more there. I read Nezval's A Prague Flâneur while sat under a photo of Nezval at Cafe Slavia. I went to the Smichov district to read Brabcova's Aviaries and then spent a couple of days in Žižkov reading Hodrova's City of Torment.

#gonggong225088 returns this Saturday!

It’s been far too long since Yorgos, Camila and I have hit the stage together. I deeply appreciate the imaginative flow, and the joyous, perpetual-motion energy of this trio—I look forward to the new things that each artist brings to the group on Saturday.

Saddened to hear of the the death of Graeme Phillips, former Artistic Director of @unitytheatre.bsky.social I worked with him for 8 years back in the 90s and saw some incredible pieces of theatre. It was only after leaving Unity that I realised how special it was and what it achieved under Graeme.

Recent reads. After finishing The Fortress this morning it made me think: when my redundancy comes through from Nottingham Uni how will I cope without the library? I found a receipt inside The Fortress from the last person to take it out in 2017. Who will love the forgotten when I am forgotten?
