Well, this is odd. We boarded a flight to Jerez but we’ve landed in Seville. At no point did they announce they were going to do that.

My biggest discovery of 2025: a podcast called Boring History for Sleep. Each episode is around six hours long and consists of some bloke droning on about history (and fire sounds, apparently, though I’ve never been awake for those).

I am making fish soup for tomorrow, and I bought a fish with an enormous eye. I mean, it would’ve been rude not to play with your food. Trigger warning:

Gorgeous day in Toledo. Birthday lunch at La Ermitaña, then a walk along the river into town, with a nice beer bar and a bloody fantastic cocktail bar.

I’m devastated that Spotify thinks I’m older than I really am. It says I’m 37.

Apparently, I listened to 26,041 minutes of the rest is history. I wonder how many of those I was awake for?
