Or it could just be an ironic commentary on where England is heading.

High risk of a catastrophic leak caused by house keys in your pocket. This would be disastrous as you sit down on the train. Hour and a half to Euston sitting in a gradually spreading puddle.

Politics, media. Media, politics. An endless spin cycle (in both senses) which achieves absolutely NOTHING. And what seeps into this vacuum? A general decline. When does the progress begin?

Well, there's my morning cultural reorientation. I never thought of "avant-garde" as particularly phallic. Can't unsee this now, of course. 🌞

An artwork that! I love the contrast primary colours. Such an intricate creature on what looks like a vast curled fabric. (And shame you don't really come across the given name "Ena" anymore).

Things like this make me think the planet just might have a chance. Firstly, there is the fact of a successful species reintroduction per se; then the strong motivation of some special people to want to make this happen. A good day. 🌞

"Very confused foreign couple". To be fair, you try making that distinction if your ticket is not printed in English.

All I need is an age pedal: one that can actually step me back to 16. Nice sound, Dan. 🌞

So it really was theatre. Touch of Joe Orton.

Could be worse. She might have stopped at the comma. At least this way you've got something to work on. Mind you, leaving Franz will be tough.

Well, I never. Who'd have thought it? The Noperthedron. A strangely cathartic venture into higher dimensional parameter space. Never thought I'd go there. Just got to work out how to get back. 🌞

Worry not. It's such a hyper connected world we now inhabit that one can hardly imagine not having come across some reference to something before. I imagine academia is highly sensitised to this. However, it is possible, maybe even likely, that bright minds think up the same thing independently.🌞

Andrew is somewhat tangential (although related) to the republic question. It is clear that he has extremely serious, the most serious, questions to answer. This is a legal matter. The question of a republic does not rely upon the alleged appalling behaviour of individuals; it is about democracy.

Yes, we do need that overdue conversation. I don't doubt that current events will, to some extent, provoke one. However, the fundamental arguments in favour of a republic remain unchanged by Andrew's conduct. They are clear, substantive and do not depend upon how one feels about individuals. 1/2

I know I'm asking too much, but it would be great if the wine glass neon were in strips, on a timer, and gradually switched off as the night wore on. (Sorry. I think I need some help).

Which is a big investment in time for a blowfly. Clearly meditating on the one that got away. Great photo.
