All of Matt’s articles in this series are fascinating, but I personally really enjoyed this one.

TV show pitch: ‘Tome Team’, where a group of rare books librarians and book historians are sent to investigate an uncatalogued library for interesting incunabula, marginalia and provenances - and they have just three days to do it.

The turnaround time between the European & Four Continents figure skating championships seems particularly brutal this year. Only time for very selective viewing. Working day not helping with 4CCs being nearly in my time zone.

My favourite TV show. Trying to keep an open mind about a reboot but makes me uneasy.

Grateful to have all the windows in the house open this morning after yesterday's 45C (113F) scorcher. And this is what the car showed after being parked in the street (under a tree) for a couple of hours. Nobody tell me climate change isn't real.

Christmas morning here in 'Straya. We've breakfasted, opened presents and Christmas lunch is in the oven (thank you husband!). Time to settle down and catch up on #DuvetKnowItsChristmas and be thankful our Christmas tradition is to be at home in our own house. My favourite so far:

Oh - Netflix Australia has Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries. That will do nicely as light viewing which I’ve seen before and enjoy but not a bazillion times.

Both arrived in today’s mail! Of course I’ve already read the Log several times when editing, but still, some light Christmas reading.

Picard writing tip: Getting your point across is more important than following archaic rules. It's okay to boldly split infinitives.

So not just me who would like to see this in a home renovation or real estate show just once.

Interesting. I'm not optimistic anything will come of this review, but perhaps it could turn into something longer term. There must be a way to put some structure around the rules to make the calling of elements more consistent.

Sydney - I know most of us don’t remember the last time we had trams, but I feel like we should know enough not to try & walk out in front of them, as observed several times today on a rare trip to the city.

Also not a fan of the show (though know way too much about it due to work) but this is comedy gold, and whoever made it definitely lived through the 1980s.

On the anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic, we thought we'd answer a question that's often asked, "If they raised the Mary Rose, why not raise the Titanic?" Allow our scaled diagram to explain...

A light blue diagram depicting the sea, with the water's surface at the top, and just below it is an outline of the Mary Rose, with the depth (12m, 40ft or 6.7 fathoms). There is a line showing the seabed, which takes a rapid dive into the vertical...
