The late Tabitha as I knew her from 4yrs ago. Brings back fond memories. So incredibly missed. Sound for purrs (and inane remarks from me!).

@fugitiveink I forgot one other visitor! The Pharmacy Delivery driver with loads of prescribed meds. (I have a diabetic foot ulcer which has brought about all this attention!). Thank you as always for your kind words. I have no pain or discomfort so that's something.

@NicholasDougl17 Gosh — that does sound a bit much — I can't blame Endora! It must be a relief for her when it's just the two of you again. I hope all that "flagging up" is just precautionary and that you're in calmer waters soon.

I just had one of those weird encounters where someone — calling round to return something — insisted on asking (twice) how I was feeling, wanted to know if I had any health issues, and then enquired whether I was spooked by being here alone at the moment. Um, thanks for that.

@SimoninSuffolk What a beautiful window Simon! Thanks for reminding us of this tragic event. I HAD remembered that tomorrow is the Anniversary of the 1746 Battle of Culloden- the last full battle to be fought on British soil though.

The Titanic sank #OTD 15 April 1912. A detail of glass at St Helen, Chipping Ongar, Essex: 'Pray for the soul of Rev Thomas Byles for 8 years Rector of this mission, whose heroic death in the disaster to SS Titanic April 15 1912 earnestly devoting his last moments to the religious consolation of his fellow passengers, this window commemorates'

@fugitiveink Almost forgot what solitude was yesterday when besides my twice daily carer visits, I had my friend Chris (shopping) + 2 District Nurses (1 + trainee in tow). Seems my health is "flagging up" concerns at the moment. Poor Endora runs off each time!!

@GAYNORPRICEJON1 I do actually get asked that occasionally — possibly because some people are frightened of old houses and can't imagine spending a few nights alone in one of them. Whereas, anyone who knows me realises I actually rather cherish my occasional moments of solitude!

@rickygervais I hope you’re not corrupting the world’s children more than they already have been. Hoping. Hoping. Because that’s what we do.

Netflix are currently subtitling & translating “Alley Cats” into 160 languages. Still no premier date yet but I can’t wait for you to see it. As with everything I’ve done, many won’t like it, many will actively hate it, but some of you will fucking love it.

@SimoninSuffolk Very much a train fan account this! Put "Captions" on for extra "nerdy" content or mute sound if you wish. Described by some as "Most beautiful line in England". Hope you like it Simon. Nick. youtu.be/ZeDLGGoqAkY?si…

@SimoninSuffolk @sly010101 A line I always wanted to travel on. Too late now as I am housebound so content myself with virtual outings. There is a good one which follows the whole route from the driver's perspective with lots of detail supplied. Will send a link if you're interested!!

@NicholasDougl17 @WalkerMarcus It’s by Paul Delaroche: Cinq-Mars (a young dashing noble who plotted against the Cardinal) is towed to execution in the boat aft of the dying Richelieu who has condemned him and his companion. It is a commentary on old age clinging vainly to power.

Should you wish to pray. tonight , here are two suggestions:,’Give peace in our time, O Lord, for there is none other that fighteth for us, but only thou, O God’ and ‘Give light to them that sit in darkness, and in the shadow of death; and guide our feet into the way of peace’.

@NicholasDougl17 One of the ferals. She's the spitting image of her father (Daddy Long Legs) who's been dropping by for years. I mistook her for him until at end of November she brought four kittens to the back step and looked sorrowfully at me.

@fugitiveink So kind of you for saying that Barendina! You are absolutely correct about the joys afforded by sites such as this whilst acknowledging the obvious disadvantages as well. On balance I think we mutually agree that the two can mutually exist with due diligence.

Because I’m researching an article for @TheCriticMag, I’ve spent the last few hours in the studio of a very interesting artist, discussing painting, portraiture, politicians and quite a lot besides. Bliss!
