Ah! The joy of an open top bus tour, when you’re on a crammed bus but get the last two seats on the top to see the scenery as you go round the coastline…. (And then a sudden cloud burst, it pours down and you get soaked to the skin and you fear your hat is ruined)

Not a bad view as I sip my Negroni on a roof-top restaurant overlooking Valletta harbour… #Malta

Despite being normally untouched by mosquitos and the like, here in Malta, I am a veritable open buffet for the buggers. I am bathed in TCP, insect repellent and smell like a pharmacy… #Malta

I have my suspicions that the #Radio4 afternoon play is a new twist on ‘The Turn of the Screw’ despite being told it’s a new psychological thriller set in the future.

Actually cold in bed last night so I am making an executive decision to put the summer weight duvet back on the bed. I completely realise that this means my house will now reach the temperature of the sun by the weekend.

E. Jean Carroll officially receives more than $5M from Trump in sexual abuse and defamation judgment

I’m feeling a little bit bad-ass today. Dressed in my best rock’n’roll mosh-pit black gear, I’m blasting out #LedZeppelin very loudly at my desk. Cats have fled into the garden and I may have to apologise to the neighbours.

And today in #Florence I’ve visited #PittiPalace and found more contemporaries while looking at #Art. 1. #JeremySinden - he’s annoyed about something but won’t tell you.

I’m in #Florence and have spent hours in the marvellous #Uffizi seeing all the art from #BCE onwards. Amazing to find images and representations of our contemporaries among the galleries! 1. #SirRoyStrong - if he was a redhead

In a quiet moment during world events I can say it truly is Spring. There are polka dots of cherry blossoms on the pavements, the sun is shining, spring flowers are blooming and there are butterflies in the garden. Take a second to embrace it, breathe deeply in and enjoy it all. #Reset #Spring

At BHX for my flight to Funchal. My hand luggage has been flagged for checking. It turns out to be my latest copy of Vogue tightly furled up…. I can only assume that Birmingham is unaware of this reading matter

My Gentleman Caller is back tomorrow and I have 24 hours to lose the Xmas weight. I think I’ll pretend there’s a power cut, light candles and ply him with cocktails. Bonus of looking 10 years younger in dim lighting too…
