In other news, scaffolding going to come down on the back of the house, newly re-rendered in lime and painted. The things you do whilst waiting for the next visit to London and theatre!!

Email came reminding me of my upcoming theatre visit. I’d completely forgotten about it so mad dash to London and now going to 4 shows over 3 days rather than just Richard 2 at the Bridge. First up Oliver! Palette cleanser after Elektra (last visit). Standout brilliant performance by Simon Lipkin.

Here I react to the shameful behavior of American leaders and media toward the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share. snyder.substack.com/p/five-failu...

Holy smokes. The Mail, a staunchly RIGHT-WING newspaper in the UK, slammed”‘bully” Trump and called for his state visit to be cancelled. Trump is now the laughingstock of the entire world.

This is absolutely vile behaviour from @realDonaldTrump and his acolyte, utterly demeaning to the office. Hold fast @ZelenskyyUa We stand with you against bullies like Trump and Putin #SlavaUkraïni

Trump is simply repeating a Putin talking point here. Russia has insisted on intervening in basic issues of Ukrainian sovereignty for more than a decade. Now Trump is doing Putin’s PR work, making unsustainable arguments for an unjustifiable invasion. www.axios.com/2025/02/18/t...

Trump levels stunning criticisms against Zelensky after Russia talks
Trump's comments about Ukraine's domestic politics will likely put more pressure on Zelensky ahead of possible negotiations to end the war.

Need to regroup from doomscrolling. So here are some flowers from a market stall in Wrocław taken on a wonderful European Interrail trip a couple of years ago. Lovely places, museums, galleries, opera, theatre, friends, scenery, Christmas lights and markets, and a snow bomb to end with. Fabulous!

We need to listen to what Trump and Vance are telling us.
The Transatlantic alliance is collapsing. This may have been the biggest moment for European security since 1991 if not 1945.

How to lose friends… we will never trust the USA again with the betrayal of Ukraine and the proposed ethnic cleansing of Gaza for a ‘development opportunity’. There’s a moral vacuum at the heart of the American government and their names are Trump and Musk. They’ll live in infamy.

#Aida at ROH richly rewarded a second viewing:more rarely than ought to be the case, this director had an idea and has followed it through thoroughly.The Triumphal March played whilst homage is paid to the war dead in a scene redolent of both North Korean and American imagery was unnerving. 5 stars!

Reflecting on #Elektra last night, I can now confidently assert that it is the worst production I have yet witnessed in a lifetime of theatregoing.Unlike the Dresden staging of the opera last year and the fabulous Strong/Manville #Oedipus it offers no insight into Greek myth or morality.I’m so cross

Looking on aghast. It’s quite something to enact the dismantling of the USA and international norms within a few days of inauguration. It’s a coup taking place in plain sight. Turns out having a written constitution provides no bulwark against authoritarianism.We weep for you, USA

Taking joy on the small things, and trying to not obsess about the orange buffoon, is my resolution for the next several years. But it’s much harder than it sounds!! Today though, just loving living in Cornwall. Photos from down west in the summer; today was a cosy pub lunch type of day 🙂
