Marlene Dietrich in Morocco (1930). Just radiating out of the scteen, equal parts swagger and softness (well, maybe 60/40 on the swagger). 😍

For the board gamers: played Forest Shuffle for the first time this weekend. Lovely vibe - there’s something soothing about games based on nature. Simple basic mechanic; emergent complexity. Lots of iconography so it can be hard to follow everything. A lot of fun! (Pic from BoardGameGeek)

For the board gamers among you: our first game of Hegemony. It’s superb. Looks sooo complex but the gameplay is straightforward once you get going, and there are great interactions between players with different strategies. 😍

Here’s some London snow from last weekend. We now have Somerset snow too ⛄️
I can highly recommend the Electric Dreams exhibition at the Tate Modern and the F1 exhibition at Excel, if you’re in the Big Smoke any time soon 😀

This was Thursday. My beloved Bellatrix bandmates and I took the stage at the Cheese and Grain, Frome (the bar stage, not the main stage, not quite yet) and played a bunch of rowdy angry girl songs.
Thanks to all who came to boogie 💕💕

Hello, new people!! Gosh, there are quite a few of you… here’s a random photo of a moody side street in Rome, to promote your creative imaginings or your holiday longings. Also pictured, the best pizza I’ve ever had (Pompei, 2024)

I spent most of today staring at a computer, some rooftops and a lame attempt at snow.
As none of those were particularly stimulating for the old visual cortex, here’s a picture of some tiramisu.
You’re welcome.
