He is a complete Tuesday.
Christ. I was sufficiently traumatised when a young colleague pronounced herself entirely ignorant of The Beatles thirty years ago ...
'Oh thank god'. The best and cruellest line.
Roland! What treats in store.
Chicken legs anointed with oil & lemon, on a bed of potatoes, garlic & rosemary, green beans, ratatouille made by @shaunwhiteside.bsky.social.
White wine.
A small good deed in an increasingly naughty world. Our young friend John, living in Beirut, has set up a fundraiser to help provide meals for the many thousands displaced by the attacks on that city. Do give if you can.

Poster for All My Sons at Wyndham's Theatre
Well this was, as all the reviews suggested, bloody wonderful. Last night but it is coming to cinemas soon. #allmysons
Contact @drlornagibb.bsky.social who wrote an excellent biography of West.
You should. Read le tout Waugh in my mid-teens and properly read SoH in my late twenties. It’s superb. Not re-read Brideshead for decades but at one point could recite much of it.
May not happen now as last-minute drinks invite from visiting US friend just landed ...
Oh god, I hope they're fully braced.
Pasta and broccoli. Wine.
Just peeled out of our bedroom window to see a Dalmatian, a pirate and various caped persons. Lovely.
This is the loveliest thread. Proper cheering in these bleak times. Thank you @nicmiller.bsky.social
I now have this brilliant glove which stops such horrors. www.boroughkitchen.com/products/mic...
Mandoline guard. You spear the thing you're slicing with the spikes and slice without risk to your fingers. I threw mine away as it's functionally useless.
Yes. Former colleague moved there.
Have you ever made Richard Olney's pork loin with wild fennel? A faff but SO good and normal fat fennel fronds are just dandy if it's all you can find.
Love fennel!
Leftover couscous with leftover chimichurri and extra chopped toms stirred through with fried fillet of bream and a fennel salad.
Yes.
Just watching our 6pm news and thinking pretty much that.
It was through Paul that I met her.
Offs!
She was wonderful - on the page and in person.
That pic is Bernice Rubens, isn't it?
Everything being even more awful than usual, I’m going to go and get my hands dirty in the garden.
I gave you false hope. I fear Lady Lavery must have fallen victim to a book cull. So sorry.
If I can find it, I will try ...
Bit of skirt steak, flash fried so it stays rare, sort of chimichurri sauce, home-made sweet potato fries, bit of salad. Wine.
