Well thank you for reading them! I don't mind being read out of order. The later books are probably better than the early ones and I read out of order all the time.

My feeling is that every woman has a mental map of places they won’t go anymore and very few men think about it at all.

It’s just tiring, isn’t it? Bracing yourself and second-guessing.

There’s a lot of passing chat in London too - usually pleasant and polite. Yesterday was an off day!

Oh for sure. Having a highly engaged and literate population to borrow/buy books from well funded libraries and thriving bookshops, tax breaks, arts funding for festivals and individuals, loads of arts coverage on mainstream media - the whole ecosystem is designed to build careers.

Sadly that just reinforces the idea that anyone can do acting/writing/painting in their spare time, as a hobby, and it has no value beyond personal satisfaction. Look at how funding and professionalism transformed sport. Very little of that kind of money and support and pride goes to the arts.
