Seville travel hack: if you are tired of the usual sights in the city, go and visit this modern art centre. It's fascinating, thoughtful and in a beautiful building. www.caac.es

Confession time. I'd let this account lie fallow for a while. My humble apologies for those who I hadn't followed back. Hopefully I'm all caught up and I'll play on here more often - promise.

In the theatre seeing a play about the Brontë sisters playing a game of Checkov's disco ball. Will it be used? Oh the tension.

Oxford and Cambridge boat race crews have been warned not to jump in the Thames because it's been contaminated by toxic parasites, also known as water companies.

Well goodbye Athens, I shall miss you. Not the daily attempts by thieves to break into our apartment of course, but in general it's been great.

Just visited the Acropolis museum. Reading about pre-democracy Hellenic city-states & I can't help but wonder if Johnson had something like this in mind when designing his great free-port revolution.

I used to work with someone who voted Tory. His wife was a teacher, and his son had special needs. So whenever he voted, he denied his wife a pay rise and cut the budget for his son’s education. That’s how stupid and selfish Tory voters are. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Tories absolutely love to claim that anyone who despises Brexit or the lost decade of terrible governance they’ve delivered, must hate Britain, what they will always fail to understand though is that we love Britain, we just fucking hate their fuck awful shitshow of fucking doom.

Perhaps they're compensating for something? I always felt that the Chrysler Crossfire was a most apt name for an American car.

Nor should they. I assume these charges are for preparation and presentation by the agent.

Mine is that in the UK the place where the British customs department operates is known as a "Custom House", not a "Customs House".

None of these charges existed before Brexit. Every business will have to pass them on in higher prices.

Friendly traveller tip guys. If booking an Airbnb in Athens do not book in the Omonia region (like we did). Unless you like sharing the road with drug addicts and prostitutes.
