@1917FilmUK is a brilliantly exhausting and yet compelling film which beautifully captures the raw, visceral, blunt, oh so determined and yet so very tender comradeship of soldiers on a hard, unforgiving battlefield. A privilege to see it early @bfcyprus 1/2

Today, it was my honour to host Général Pierre @CEMAT_FR and accompany TRH The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh and @AmbDuchene at the Anglo-French Changing of the Guard, marking 120 years of Entente Cordiale. We remain two nations ‘linked together in their cause and in their need.’

I first posted the below just over two years ago. I will continue to repost it from time to time. This morning is one such time.

Test cricket is intellectually, morally, aesthetically, spiritually, emotionally, dramatically, artistically, physically, mentally, historically, consistently, decisively, dumbfoundingly, globally, unapologetically, unquestionably superior to every other game yet invented

Loved this wonderfully perceptive take on the high life and the low life (as well as everything in between) of waiters in the city of light. Beautifully observed. Poetically written. Read in double quick time - always a very good sign. #Paris Bravo! @ChisholmEdward
