Sad to hear that Reader's Digest has gone to the wall. "To Venice with Love" was a book of the month and they gave me a lovely review. I was, and am, very grateful for that.
It’s a lovely day. Good morning #Venice!

Spring is here! And so, for a couple of weeks only, we can get asparagus, broad beans and fresh peas at the same time. Which makes for a lovely pasta dish.
Desperately sad news. CJ Sansom was an absolute giant of the genre.

"Nicolas Roeg's 'Don't Look Now' (1973) is a very strange movie. It is very much about death; but at first, you’re not aware that that’s really the subject matter. It’s a love story, but its really a story about love & death." --- David Cronenberg
I see Renato Sanches is trending...

Dinner tonight - linguine with swordfish, Messina-style. Now, my favourite way with swordfish is probably still griddled with a big plate of crispy chips on the side. But this is definitely my second favourite way. It's a lovely dish. Grazie, @racheleats !

Great thread comparing two of my favourite shows 😊
Another thing that I love about Robin of Sherwood is how elegantly it stepped into the gap recently left by a certain other classic series about a band of outlaws. Blake’s 7 was obviously Robin Hood in space, but the parallels are never clearer than here. So... another 🧵 1/11
@ellygriffiths I loved both series until I rewatched Robin of Sherwood a couple of years ago and realised that my younger self clearly have a vastly different view of things to me now. Blake's Seven however remains eminently watchable. Could take those scripts word for word to redo now. Love B7
