Just reread this. For the 10th time. And it only gets better with age… Loved the vinyl-feel of this edition. #happyplace

Just joined substack @guytmartland. Both BlueSky and Substack seem much more positive places than the other platforms. So I’ve binned Twitter and now thinking of dumping meta too… #heretostay

Just finished Dodie Smith’s masterpiece. Loved every word. Cannot recommend this highly enough.

Been reading Calvino episodically, travelling through each city like an unhurried tourist. Taking snapshots, making notes. So many details, so much worldbuilding on every page.

Taken over the jukebox again. The bar is emptying to the sounds of Bela Logusi’s Dead.

Word of the day is a favourite, from old Scots.

To ‘tartle’ is to hesitate while introducing someone because you have completely forgotten their name.

May I mention that I have a new book out? Arthurian with a twist, from NewCon Press. The Book of Gaheris.
