Freshly unearthed in a box of old cassettes: damn, even at the age of eleven I was king of the mixtape. The one glaring omission among the artists means that I can date this to between 9 March 1979 (when Cool For Cats was released), and 23 April 1979 (when Kenny Everett gave me my Bowie epiphany).

A smart, packed, sophisticated novel, which gives @markdonaldson.bsky.social and I a chance to discuss history, perception and the two can collide dramatically in modern times.

Not long now until I sow my new favourite tomato. Clou is blight resistant & grew outside last year as an experiment. I planted it out in March under a plastic water bottle cloche & it was still fruiting away in November. Fabulous tasty variety. Just larger than a cherry tomato 💛 🌱

Fascinating chart with one outlier: Warren Buffett.
At the low end, giving 0.06% of one's wealth is equivalent to:
Net worth -> Lifetime Giving
50K->$30
100K->$60
500K->$300
$1M->$600
Most folks give far more by % in a *single year*.

Movie Monday—'The Bellboy.' It’s a madcap adventure in the hospitality industry that ends up in the most beautifully choreographed fight in a foiled bank robbery.

We took a long walk, got mud soaked shoes, thoroughly drenched, bought a lemon curd cake at a farm shop and now cutting it into giant wedges with the strongest tea possible. I think this is what makes me English, not waving a silly little flag 💪

We took daughters and some friends to a pottery painting session where you pick an item, paint with glaze and they fire it for you. 16 year old daughter freehanded this amazing #Tolkien mug.

Plenty to discuss this week as Blake’s 7 goes all Star Trek in Duel.
What separates Blake and Travis as commanders? Is this the best Travis episode? How well does Jenna do in this one?
