Would rather be at home with a cup of tea and a good book.
You could go AS Muriel Spark…? 💁🏻‍♂️

@timdowling.bsky.social has been adventuring with jelly and it looks like Pertwee-era Doctor Who communing with an alien ambassador who might be a baddie.

I’ve just finished Havoc by Rebecca Wait; an utter hoot, clever, thoughtful, really rather tender, awfully well written and did I mention it’s a hoot?

Do read it. Although if it turns out you don’t love Louise Adler with every fibre of your being I’m afraid we can never be friends.

It’s still amazing to me that they really thought they were making a high-art piece of wrenching drama. I mean, if it had been a John Waters film with Divine as Joan Crawford it could not have been more camp. Love it so.

I picked this up in a charity shop yesterday (it includes A Woman of No Importance) and it’s nigh impossible to imagine anyone speaking his words better. 😥

Maybe there’s a film about being confined to bed with an ankle injury he could watch?

In honour of the equinox and the evenings getting cooler: I give you one of my friend Lucy’s dogs getting winter-ready (and possibly dreaming of roast chicken).

That thing where everyone waves lighters in tribute but it’s for Sorcha at this difficult time.

OK I'm going to gush for a little minute here because this 👇 is an astoundingly good recording of The Desert Music by @stevereich.bsky.social - to my mind, the only one in 40 years to rival the original and definitive Nonesuch version. It's a concert performance [...]

Ordered my FOURTH recording of The Desert Music @stevereich.bsky.social - high hopes for this one (although the original Michael Tilson Thomas / Brooklyn Philharmonic has proven very hard to beat).

One of the first pieces of his I fell in love with impossibly long ago, as transcendant now as then.
