I'd like to announce some personal growth. I got the winter tyres changed in October, well before, rather than after, the first snow of the year.

Właśnie wróciłem ze wspaniałego tygodnia na Podlasiu i byłem nim całkowicie oczarowany. Przyroda, jedzenie, historia - nie chciałem wracać do Warszawy!

Perfectly captures what it's like to be faced with a critically ill child and their long term disability. Raw and reflective - an essential read.
I wrote for the Guardian’s Saturday magazine about my son Max, who changed how I see the world. Took ages. More jokes after the first bit.
Thanks Merope Mills for being the most patient and generous editor.

The boy who came back: the near-death, and changed life, of my son Max
It was, we were told, a case of sudden infant death syndrome interrupted. What followed would transform my understanding of parenting, disability and the breadth of what makes a meaningful life

To najpiękniejszy czas w roku, kiedy kwitną bzy i jemy bezy, ale także kiedy przypominam sobie, dlaczego kocham język polski

Gorące pozdrowienia z Kryspinów pod Krakowem - pokazuje, że Kryspin (nawet Kryspijan?) to także polskie imię!

I finally got round to watching a 'A Real Pain' and it's as beautiful and heartbreaking as everyone said it is. It speaks powerfully to my own experience of returning to Poland as the grandchild of Polish survivors of the war. notesfrompoland.com/2024/11/05/m...

I always put this up on NYE - just a beautiful vignette of Auld Lang Syne, it's meaning and why we we're here because we're here

Cieszę się, że mogłem wziąć udział w obchodach 15. rocznicy Fundacji Ukrainski Dom dołączając do nich, aby docenić wyjątkowe dzieci ukraińskie w Polsce i wesprzeć ich ambicje na przyszłość.

Popped to one of my faves Syrena Irena for sour mushroom soup, pierogi, and fruit kompot. The Syrena (mermaid) is the symbol of Warsaw, so it always reminds me of my own grandmother Irena, who herself was a Warsaw icon in her day. Flawless, except that the English menu refers to 'Pierogies'

The tram has arrived near my house and now I'm 100% team tram. In fact I'm a bit obsessed - quick, spacious frequent, what's not to like? @warszawa.bsky.social

Looking forward to learning more about Poland's EU presidency at a conference organised by @visegradinsight.bsky.social and others. We live in unprecedented times, not least because this is a Jagiellonian University event organised at the University of Warsaw! #polishppc
