Mindlessly channel hopping, I just found an episode of The Good Old Days (BBC4) - Eartha Kitt! Roy Castle playing the bagpipes! Hinge & Bracket! What the feck were we all on back then?

Finally got to the Big Bookshop (hello, Hodges Figgis!) to spend a book token; I also chanced my arm with a pre-Covid loyalty card for โฌ10 which they very kindly honoured. Decided it was time I gave Anthony Trollope another go...I may be some time...

I had 30 mins to spare before a hospital appointment today, in a part of Dublin I don't really know. Found Blessington Street Basin - former reservoir that supplied the city from 1810. Now a nice wee park, even in heavy rain.

you've inspired me! I'm the on-call Super this week, and I've lighting works and gritting to mind over the next couple of nights. So I'm revisiting this old friend in a new format, to while away the hours waiting for something to happen.

This is going to be an excellent event - James is incredibly knowledgeable and interesting to listen to. It's a Zoom call, and tickets cost whatever you want to pay. Would very much recommend.

I was looking through a storage box for a couple of documents I needed, and discovered a file full of my O, A, and S level papers. Here are the maths A-level ones...I looked through them and now feel a) old and b) stupid. I passed this one in 1983.

At Pearse waiting for the Maynooth train; woman sat beside me is chatting on her phone. "Oh!" she says, "here's my train now!" She carries on detailing the intricacies of her life, and the train leaves. She doesn't seem to notice.

@russincheshire.bsky.social
's first novel, but probably not this. It's a cracker of a thriller, it's pacey & intriguing, and I kept having to put it down so I could y'know, eat, sleep, breathe. A great read & one to go back to at a more measured pace.

I'm reading a Golden Age detective novel: "Body Unidentified" by John Rhodes, published in January 1938. I came across this description of surface dressing on a rural road, which reads exactly as I expect his council contact said it...
