Scotland’s a sense of change, an endless
becoming for which there was never a kind
of wholeness or ultimate category.
Scotland’s an attitude of mind.

Changed trains at St Erth multiple times last month, but on relistening to the Flanders and Swann 'Slow Train' yesterday, was surprised 'St Erth to St Ives' featured in it. Was it at some point axed in the Beeching cuts and brought back later? 🤔

His response to a letter from Harold Pinter canvassing support for a proposal to have the Comedy Theatre in London rechristened the Pinter Theatre, “Have you thought, instead, of changing your name to Harold Comedy?”

An 1894-95 electricity sub-station whose design was based on the Strozzi Palace (1489) 😯🤩
Florence thinks it’s the business with its Strozzi Palace, but Cheltenham has one anyway so there’s no need to go to Tuscany…
