If you ignored the cold, it was almost spring-like in Westgate Gardens earlier. Has this blossom got confused?

Went to Christmas drinks at the weekend & the host sent me home with a sausage roll for Lexi. She even wrapped it in a Christmas napkin! Here's Lexi's face when she smelled it!

One thing I love about walking round Canterbury is the glimpses of the cathedral that emerge at intervals. Morning!

Lovely, rabbity wander around the woods at the university. Lexi's known these paths and trees since she was a puppy. Love watching her taking it all in 10+ years later.

What's interesting about this trend for book marketing AI companies—who secure £Xmil in seed funding, get a write-up in the Bookseller, and will now wither away, leaving only a slime trail of AI generated goop across the surface of culture—is mainly what it says about capital’s engagement with books
