"At times, indeed, almost ridiculous—
Almost, at times, the Fool."
God tried hard to make feet that would suit
And for waterfowl ones that looked cute
But his large stock of webbing
Very soon began ebbing
And ran out when he got to the coot

Then there's Frenzy: brilliant acting, great location shots of London, and very gripping.

Up betimes, and after dressing went forth into Beckenham, the morning somewhat rainy, and there stopped at @beckenhambookshop.bsky.social, where I did look over many publications, and bought one by @dannybate.bsky.social newly printed, which pleased me mightily. So home again, well contented.

Looking forward to reading my latest purchase from @beckenhambookshop.bsky.social recommended by a lovely lady I met on Eurostar.

Any mention of Trieste, takes me back to Jan Morris's book Trieste and the Meaning of Nowhere.

Who at the BBC thought this would be a good colour scheme?
