Boring weirdo. (Son's view.) All my views are my own. Not his. Or my employer's.
Mainly classical music, concrete buildings, politics, The Archers. Hodgkin Lymphoma Club, Isle of Wight (no you don't need a passport, yes it is the most expensive...)

I was in London yesterday. Forced to go as Saddiq has monopoly on 'world's greatest classical music festival' #BBCProms. They made me eat this biscuit - pistachio which was spiked with 'matcha'. I had to Google it to make sure it wasn't a class A drug. (They're trying to get you hooked.)

This isn't new though and/or an outcome of recent changes. This is from Dec 2022 at RFH (which struck me as potentially problematic then, hence picture taken).

It looks very much like the Hot Walls/Square Tower and Saluting Platform on entry to Portsmouth Harbour. Looks similar today, but shelters not there from memory. Bit of structure left.

I went to a concert at Cadoggan Hall and was sat next to this filth. Surely malevolent intentions.

I love library parts. This is the best life advice to pass on to your children, from a 1st Violin part (Sibelius??)

@quietriotpod.bsky.social interesting section on IHT and farmers. I was struck by this in our local paper in which demonstrators don't mention IHT, but seem proud of the food bank. What are they actually demonstrating against?

I loved it too. Also love the real thing - Science Museum in London (not easy to find - stairwell on right hand side). Great video, but...
