Serpentine thoughts as the Boa-like A30 loosens its constrictions for February and we can breathe for a few weeks, soon enough it will tighten its grip again and no-one will be able to move for the season. If not a boa constrictor then maybe snakes n ladders, I only came for a visit…

I've got a new long read for you, in which I climb Truro Cathedral, turn into a conspiracy theorist about church spires, and try really hard not to interrupt a Christmas carol concert.
It's packed with pretty pictures and you can read the whole thing here: jayhulmepoet.substack.com/p/truro-cath...

Just had a wild experience I'd like to share.
I tool the bike out for a while around the back roads of the Franklin district in Auckland to get some throttle therapy and fresh air. I was going at a decent, but legal pace, when I came upon a car stopped pretty much in the middle of the road 1/

But work emails *were* originally a pagan ritual, performed in honour of the god Replyall
