Because given the state of things I'd rather be at home with a few good books and a cup of tea. Now with added @niallmurray.bsky.social

@MarinaHyde I asked for this as a birthday present last year on your recommendation and loved it precisely as much as you would have wished! What a good book and what a fine and funny man.

Hello! On March 8th I am talking on stage to the brilliant Owain Mulligan, whose book about his Iraq War tour is - somehow - completely hilarious. The whole thing is in aid of the wonderful charity War Child, and it will be FUN if you feel like coming along. Details here fane.co.uk/owain-mulligan

Today started with someone threatening to beat me up on the train and ended with a cheerful interaction about football scores and horses as I waited for fish and chips. Been quite the day.

@LucyMangan Get your sister on the case? Because whatever it’s going to be I’m going to want to read it. 💁🏻‍♂️ Also can I ask, is there any chance of you heading over to Blu- Sorry, the ‘Azure Vault of Heaven’ place that must not be mentioned here? Sooooooo much more civilised.

Trying to set up a Substack. You might as well ask an eel to pick a lock or squeeze a blackhead. Why am I so stupid? The WILD incompetence that is happening 🤯

@Oh_Lets_Not Goodness. I love to think of a time when the cockroach people will think it's interesting to document the human civilization's cat obsession and so will need data about a long forgotten classicist 🤣

Away on an orchestra course. Woke up. Realised weak point of argument in article. Am without laptop or a notebook, so the ideas are now scrawled in blunt pencil over the blank pages at the back of Les Liaisons Dangereuses, making this copy a less valuable book.

@sacha_coward Alright but what if we tell you afterwards? Or is that just as bad / worse (because retrospective cringe…?) or - We need an etiquette guide, basically.

In A&E having gashed my head on an awning. I am FUCKING SICK of everything being designed for people under six foot. A doctor is going to waste time examining and stitching me just because things at street level are bloody dangerous.

BBC reporter just now covering commemoration of Dunkirk. Out on the water. Remarking that some of the ships are very old and have had basically all their parts replaced. Reaching for a turn of phrase to describe this phenomenon he plumps for… Trigger’s Broom.
