Hello, friends of Bluesky. It's been an age. I have news. I've started doing an English Literature degree at an actual university. I am unbelievably pleased about it. I will be more regular in my updates, and you can enjoy a housekeeper returning to study in her 50s.

The women of my family have been making a Christmas pudding to this recipe for six generations. All those Christmasses, a little light, persisting.
