A sunny, cold morning in Windsor. A very enjoyable micro-break, with the girls away on a Guides trip.

Having a full-on “dad dancing” moment at the TikTok News: Next Generation event at Soho House.

A man with gray hair is sitting at a table in a café or restaurant with cups and plates, while a woman standing behind him appears to be speaking or eating.

A paper held up displays the phrase THE FORMAT CAN CHANGE. THE FUNDAMENTALS DON'T. against a backdrop of overlapping black circles.

I think it’s fair to say that Autumn is properly here.

Farewell, old comrade. You and I spent many conferences together, and also enjoyed many long walks.We even made a few movies together. Whomever replaces you will undoubtedly be more expensive.

Dragged myself out of the house, to the beach, and actually enjoyed the blustery weather. I’m on the mend, I think. I took the time to do a #2minutebeachclean

Nice memento to take home from the Isle of Wight. One to save for a dreary October evening, when work is piling up, and a Benedictine ale will bring blessed relief.

As I load the shelves on my new home office, I am being rather forcefully reminder of the old adage that buying books and reading books are two separate, and only loosely connected, hobbies.

A bookshelf containing a variety of books, including titles about nature, wildlife, and environmental subjects.

A bookshelf filled with a variety of books arranged both horizontally and vertically, covering topics from history and nature to personal growth and literature.
