Dazzling, eccentric, recherché, suave.
VERY unpopular opinion humans were never meant to be this busy that’s why everybody is anxious and depressed.
About to see London preview of MOTORHOME MARILYN @CamdenPT by my ace client Ben Weatherill, and starring the legend that is Michelle Collins.

Victoria Wood & Julie Walters - Shoe Shop sketch From Victoria Wood's classic series As Seen On TV. Naturally of its time but there are still many sketches that still work thanks to the comedic geniuses Victoria Wood & Julie Walters. National treasures & Victoria sorely missed.
I like the Scolt Head pub the Dalston/Islington hinterlands very much. Always very friendly and great food.
I’m very sad that the ace Duke of Richmond pub in Hackney is closing. The best place, the best food. But I’m also very happy that my lovely pals Meryl and Tom can have a well earned rest!
Iris Murdoch is one of my most favourite and most loved novelists. Just read this sentence by her: “To avoid the torment of social life at the launderette I had bought a washing machine.” From A WORD CHILD, 1975.
My brother is just applying Superglue to his foot. He says this is podiatrist approved.
Excited that there’s new music out from the brilliant @stereolabgroop
This is hugely deserved!
