I bought a Christmas pud in the Coop. Going cheap. So now there is Christmas pud.
No. I am not giving up anything in January… utter silliness in the most miserable time of the year…
Christmas pud and Brandy butter, no less.

Tonight's 🎥: Sunset Boulevard (1950, dir. Billy Wilder). The best film about films ever made? Undoubtedly. One of the all-time great movies, stuffed with an embarrassment of riches, from the writing to performances to production design, cinematography and direction. Savage, melancholy, brilliant.

Why do ICE agents carry guns?
Not one single report of them being shot at!!
Not one single story about apprehending anyone with a gun!!
Take the weapons away from the untrained, unrestrained, incompetent agents. Do it for public safety.

I mentioned earlier today that I had done a watercolour of the London Royal Courts of Justice in the Strand. This is it from 1993 (see alt text). I did several paintings wandering up and down the Strand and also in the Inns of Court.

But will you make America 'great' again...? I went to America for the first time in 2022 - took in the Hudson River, Saratoga Springs, Troy, New York, and Boston. I know this is the East Coast but America looked pretty great to me then... Good luck, my friend. I hope the US can find it's way again.
Protests are spreading across the country as Trump's thugs reveal their unconstrained violence.
We will not succumb to despair or doom, or become paralyzed with fear.
We will win and we will rebuild an America that upholds democracy and the rule of law.

Maybe I don't understand US politics - distinctly possible, I'm British.
I thought when Trump got in this time round, that's it. The US is a dictatorship. Project 2025 won. Nothing I've seen since then has convinced me I was wrong...
