It’s 22 years since we last saw a mesmeric Thom Yorke and Radiohead live, and this time tomorrow, we’ll be leaving this year’s tour. Literally can’t wait!

Just been reflecting on how the demise of the landline may have quite a bit to do with the end of just calling friends without making an appointment. You knew that someone would not be out and about or at some appointment. I quite miss those days.

I love that we can see all the fireworks displays of southeast London and Kent from our loft window! Here’s a timelapse of about a minute’s worth.

A fascinating day at Tate Britain seeing the work of two artists: Lee Miller, the fashion turned war photographer, plus the paintings of Edward Burra. The common thread was that their lives were never quite the same after living through war.
Tempted to make one of Lee Miller’s “unusual” recipes.

The miniature railway, derek jarman’s cottage. The strangest general store I’ve ever been to. It was like it was frozen in the 1980s - though that may have been in greatstone.

I feel like the possibility of doing it imminently is underpriced. Though the London times says it “understands” Trump is looking for an off-ramp, amid concern about Iran’s ability to strike US assets in the region. The bit of the article here doesn’t indicate the source of that understanding.

We decided my Dad’s 86th birthday weekend was a good moment to open this, which was a gift sometime around 1990. The clarity of the port is remarkable, and it is absolutely delicious! Quite remarkable that a liquid 62 years old is so drinkable.
