I’m thinking about starting a British version of the NYT connections puzzle designed to be unsolvable by Americans. Sample row: England players who missed a penalty.

Just learned that Keats had a younger brother who emigrated to America. His son, Keats’ nephew lived until 1917, into the age of cars and planes and world war.

I’ve just watched Die Hard for the first time. It was less Christmassy than I’d been expecting.

My kids woke up so excited this morning for the first night of Hannukah and now yet again we have a festival where I’m very conflicted about whether it’s safe to take them to synagogue to celebrate. Communities shouldn’t have to live like this.

I’d hoped it would be Tom Sutcliffe but Misha Glenny is a fine choice.

My experience of jury duty was exactly this. In the end one juror summed up the key points and got us over the line to a verdict. Turned out in his day job he was a
