It's one of those things that we always knew was coming, I think, but we all chose to believe it wouldn't catch up with us. Next up: climate change ...

Thak you! Most of my stuff
Posted on Mon, 30 Mar 2020
Thak you! Most of my stuff is sitting on someone's desk mopping up coffee stains, I think. And perhaps the world is suffering enough at the moment.

And so glad to know I'm not the only one! I watched a bit of that very same Poirot, and then had a conversation with the cushions about Suchet vs Ustinov vs Finney vs the upstart John Malkovich.

I actually don't respond to
Posted on Wed, 25 Mar 2020
I don't really respond to much on social media, unless it's from people I actually know, mainly because I can't be arsed, and also because I feel it's a clumsy way to have a good discussion. So I come on here, where I'm amongst friends, and...
