I've spent a lot of time thinking about this fascinating exchange Colbert had with Dua Lipa, when she asked him about the role his faith plays in his comedy.

Oh yikes, good shout - I think I've been stressing about the problems with so many different sites that I've blanked that all out! But yes. Maybe even like Edith Hall, on a personal website? I dunno about the legalities...

Oh no, I’m so sad to see this. I have never laughed so hard when reading a book as at the scene with the paternoster in ‘Changing Places’. It is perfection.

Thank you so much! It sometimes feels like a lonely position to take, but I'm conscious that it is also one that is so much easier because I am in a secure job and have had wonderful travel opportunities in the past. It is time to let others have the long-distance adventures!
