Having woken me at 2:30 and 3:30 to go into the garden for a comfort break #sophiefromromania needed a snooze but as dawn broke I persuaded her out for a walk

A somewhat anxious #sophiefromromania had to be persuaded to complete our park walk this morning but we decided we all deserved a #bigbreakfast

Waking to another Trump outrage as he bails out his pal in the Kremlin by buying his diesel oil just in time for a winter offensive against Ukraine. This just weeks after tough new sanctions on anyone who buys Russian oil. But for the Times this llatest betrayal is not big news, just fifth story

Now listen #sophiefromromania it’s too cold this morning for a game of "Do I or don't I want to come in from the garden?"

Heading home after three days with the prof in Spain. Relaxing for me but the prof had to talk about the economics of AI with Spain’s deputy PM who had to leave early for a crucial vote in Madrid which the government lost. Oh - and she also went to a private dinner with the King

#Sophiefromromania and I were out early on an autumnal morning - the prof left for Cambridge and @sociabledog.bsky.social to the airport on his way home even earlier. Sophie and I are a bit sad but we’ve got plenty to keep us busy

Had an evening of ecstasy and agony at Grand Cru.saders benefit for Cure Parkinson’s - ecstasy because what’s not to like about an excellent meal with fine wines followed by a wine auction raising a six figure sum? Agony because my new (so far useless)sleep medication means I’m forbidden alcohol

Tough morning: bad back, hardly slept despite new drug meant to sort that, and found #sophiefromromania had left a little puddle on the hall carpet . Despite that, pleasant walk, and in a little while, I've got a very jolly piece on my Substack about how Hitler's diary ended up in my BBC notebook.
