@JamesHalcrow Congratulations! Is the thesis all wrapped up now, or they can suggest changes etc? (In my mind, it’s like writing a book.)

After I submit my thesis in May I have booked a holiday to explore the Silk Road and see some of inner Mongolia to coincide with my birthday, I am not a restful person as you can tell and I can never sit still for long. It looks so beautiful though and I've been working hard🥲

Final sentence of conclusion written and templates and formatting all done well ahead of time. It's still 2 months until submission day and somehow I feel a lil emotional because I have spent 5 years of my whole life working towards this moment😭

@thewritertype I love his comedy. I found “Jeremy Hardy speaks to the nation” and listened to so many in a row. Take care ❤️

Seven years ago today we lost Jeremy Hardy. I miss him all the time.

There’s always a long line at Bar Leone since it was voted the best bar in the world.

Two things I had forgotten about the UK: - signs everywhere, mostly forbidding things - leaf mulch. All the leaf mulch in the world is gathered here

Turned into a bit of a filthy day in Glasgow, but redeemed by our visit to the Willow tea rooms.

I’m listening to Tea with Alice podcast and bought a pizza slice on the way home. I just clicked the pizza shop was called Alice Pizza. Is this priming?

Moby Dick was inspired by a whale called Mocha Dick. Maybe Melville's whale could have been called Cappuccino Dick.

Quick look at the ICC clothing regulations and I can't see that Australia's canary yellow collars are allowed in Test cricket. The shirt has to be white apart from specific exceptions, and the only exception on the collar is piping which has to be a thin strip.

I'm not going to do a big criticism of the performance of the White Ferns at the World Cup because they have played generally to their current standard which is some way below that of a semi-final contender. But I do have to ask why they chose to field first against India.

I was browsing in the Starbucks and actually just leaving when they called to me “James do you want a flat white?” I’m so impressed by them recognizing me that I bought a coffee anyway. Good community feeling.
