Just another number in the great herd of independent minds. Travel, History, Astronomy, Mountains and other distractions. I also survived being a constituent of Boris, 2015-2023, so everything afterwards is a bonus.

Just back from a week of sea kayaking around Ithaca, Greece. Wonderful, beautiful, restorative.

Taking a few days out of the London rat race. Visiting Feshiebridge and the evocative, abandoned Frank Bruce sculpture trail, which is returning to nature as he intended.

The An Teallach traverse is the most beautiful and impressive mountain day in the United Kingdom - and today was a stunning revisit after 15 plus years.

A Bhutan Society evening hearing all about Education and Hidden valleys. Politics meets Gross National Happiness meets Sustainable development in an Ask Local, think Global Big P policy framework. You could get optimistic about this stuff.

I’m in Kyoto on holiday. This is the Temple of the Dragon at Peace, also known as Ryoan-ji. The OG of Zen gardens. Take a moment to pause and contemplate the inexpressible amongst the doomscrolling.
