Barrister (regulatory, business crime, commercial). Avid if ageing capoeirista. Poor jazz piano player. Nerdish tendencies (Trek AND Wars, btw). Views not so much my own (who can honestly claim that?); but certainly my fault. Blogs at jcsj.uk.

Alongside the other billion and one reasons why my daughter is fabulous is telling me about this screensaver. That I’ve never noticed it before is mortifying. But as a 35-year Mac veteran, all the way back to System 6, this is Clarus-level joy for me. #hiChicago

Clearly a cat problem. Not a "my cat" problem.

This, from a piece by Tim Goodman about why professionals don’t vote Tory, is hilarious. Unrecognisable in its lack of connection with reality. A picture-perfect example of someone seeing their own biases and mistaking them for the outside world.

One of my most firmly-held beliefs is the critical importance of finding beauty in the small things. The view south-east from the platform at Milton Keynes Central just now. This alone makes the morning a thing to treasure.

The problem with this - from the FCA's CEO, in www.ft.com/content/8774... - is that it runs directly contrary to the FCA's previous stated estimate: that two thirds of its recently-opened investigations would be subject to the naming provisions. I don't think both statements can be true.

I’d love to crack some smart gag about my cat helping me work. But as anyone owned by cats knows, that’s bollocks. Rather, it’s: “bored and lazy. Need comfort and company. You’ll do. At least till I decide otherwise.” In the utter (and justified) confidence that spineless human will comply.
