I've just finished this final book by Martin Cruz Smith - and was so saddened to hear of his passing. What a true talent he was.

NEW: A searing editorial in the The Kyiv Independent.

“It’s time to say it plainly. America’s leadership has switched sides in the war. The American people have not, and they should speak up.

“A president just disrespected America in the Oval Office. It wasn’t Zelensky.”

Fast-forward four years and there's no legitimate outcome that could keep Trump in power. Watch the GOP bend itself in half to try and make that happen.

Just "Tooth and nail" to go! @ianrankin1.bsky.social - I kindly received the early years edition of the first three, but that felt like cheating adding it here.

Operation dad-bod - Day 44: I had 3 rest-days (Christmas Day, Boxing Day, and New Year's Day) but I've been rowing 5km for every other day. I have a gym induction tomorrow for a six-week blitz to try and take my health routines to the next level.

Day 42 - operation dad-bod: I think I've figured out the trick to continuous rowing over the 3km and 2km distances I row: try not to row the entire distance in the first two minutes! I've started to add other bits of exercise to the routine too.

T-minus 3 and counting by my reckoning - New Year's plan is to buy a bookshelf for the man cave and transfer them all upstairs. @ianrankin1.bsky.social - last update before Christmas!

Final Rebus collection update: The Black Book arrived today. Just four more to go @ianrankin1.bsky.social - this is me done until the New Year when I can resume my hunt for those I don't have.
December 21, 2024 at 1:29 PM
20 and counting! Will I have the remainder by Christmas?!

Day 31 - operation dad-bod - report: after slacking off on the weekend I decided to row 6km this morning to make up for the gap. Sessions of 3km, 2km and 1km were met with no wheezing, coughing or urges to catch my breath! Definite progress 😎 #concept2rowing

Thought I was talking with a bona fide author of some repute. He asked me which books of mine were on Amazon (zero - just our own website) he then replied "please send me sales statistics of your Amazon sales to date..." #block

Day 22 of Operation Six Pack - a 2km row and some light floor work is starting to make a positive difference. My shoulders are "back", my posture is better and my body clock resembles that of a normal person and not that of a student! #concept2rowing
