"And saying buccaneering a lot." As a Europhile Brit, that drove me crazy: Lame slogans as a replacement for proper thinking.

Yes, I think it is going to. My impression is that many people in the US are getting tired of Trump's capricious and autocratic style of government.

Morning, Giles. I watched a few minutes of the BBC News on TV this morning. At the tickertape-style headlines at the bottom of the screen, it said that Elon Musk and Prince Andrew had been named in the Epstein files which have already been released. I think there are more files to come.

Charles Handy (author of Gods of Management, The Empty Raincoat etc) wrote about this nearly 50 years ago. He said many of us will not have full-time jobs but will have "portfolio careers" in which we divide our time between working in an office, working from home, doing voluntary work etc.

Yes, I wish the UK was still in the EU but my wife says that we have to deal with the world as it is; and not with the world as we would like to be.

I am a linguist. I speak German and French but I don't feel very European. I live on the coast and I know that we instinctively cling to our connections with Ireland, the US, Canada, Australia etc, where many of us have relatives. I have been ill for a long time so you may not remember me.

Danke sehr. Ich muss jetzt wieder sehr viel auf deutsch lesen!

Tut mir leid. Ich war etwa 5-Jahre-lang krank. Ich bin im Deutschen sehr ausser Uebung gekommen. Ich muss jetzt alles quasi neu wiederlerner. Ich werde daher leicht verwirrt!
