We went to see Sentimental Value, after it won six European Film Awards last night, including best picture. I’m not sure I agree with lead actor Stellan Skarsgard’s description of it as light like a soufflé, but it is a masterful film. Very affecting.

I couldn’t find my restrictive covenants when you did a shoutout for them the other day, but did just manage to track them down.

I met up with a friend for lunch on the Aldwych and thought I might swing by the (I thought secret!) John Soane’s museum on Lincoln’s Inn Fields. Word clearly got out..!

Delighted to find again the most frictionless government service in the UK is probably passport renewal. I filled out the easy online form a week ago and posted my daughter’s documents the same day. This arrived this morning!
And we didn’t pay extra for the one week turnaround either.

Amazing photo. Do you know if it was staged (perhaps to boost morale) in much the same way this pic turned out to be the photographer’s assistant?

My 86-year-old Dad still runs his own business, and has just pulled this device out to help with his annual accounts! How’s that for a blast from the past?

I can’t remember who needs the credit for this revelation, but for those who love a Terry’s chocolate orange at this time of year, there’s a better way than smashing it on the counter to separate all those super segments!
Merry Christmas to all who celebrate!

I’ve been out in London quite a bit in the past week. The sense of joy as the festive season approaches has been palpable, and it makes me chuckle (and a bit sad) that so many people around the world have been persuaded that this is some sort of hellhole where phone theft or mugging are inevitable.

Who to trust (if any?!) I’m trying to figure out the teaspoon yield of ground cardamom from eight pods. ChatGPT, Gemini and Grok have quite different estimates!
