Just saw The Importance of Being Earnes with @stephenfry.bsky.social as Lady Bracknell and a wonderful cast. It’s a fantastic production, highly recommended.

I've just been fighting with PowerPoint slide sizing. If you select A3 it switches to a 4:3 aspect ratio. It knows what the dimensions should be but sets them to a 4:3 region within that. The way they present dimensions also seems designed to confuse. It does A4 better.

I can't help feeling that the outcome of a TV group interaction show isn't news.

I saw a sign-written van “Thomas Robinson, Electrician”. It hadn’t occurred to me that two abbreviations of the name could cause issues from opposite ends of politics.

Incidentally, I saw Tom Robinson a few months ago. Towards the end of the set he announced: “And now a medley of my hit”

It’s ages since I last listened to Jonathan Richman’s Rock and Roll with the Modern Lovers.

This Cornish church
Well known for a mermaid tale
Few take time to wonder
At the colours in the kneelers
Once crafted from animal, vegetable and mineral
Now synthesised
Remote from the nature they are used to portray

Staying in West Cornwall and Mrs E reminds me of this Brenda Wootton song about Humphrey Davey. Livelier than a Wikipedia article and I like the way she includes Faraday as one of his discoveries.
