Great evening watching @marcusbrig.bsky.social at @nordenfarm.bsky.social #vitruvianmango - as the owner of the 18 year old in the audience I think the last time we saw you perform (in Norwich) was before we had her - 2006

If you are into whodunnits and in the UK I can recommend Cold Tapes on BBC sounds- clever concept that you are solving a murder remotely using the same evidence available to the police inspector by a series of recordings and interviews. Some very short some longer- rather like an epistolary novel.

This was one of the very best things to happen in 2025.

Off to watch Oliver! This pm in old London town…in the meantime who WILL buy this beautiful morning?

NEWBURY!

Do join me and @rory-stewart.bsky.social for a @therestpolitics.bsky.social LIVE on the Iran crisis at 930 www.youtube.com/live/dhrw4K6...

Quick #dragonfly rescue on the walk to a friend’s house this morning.

You beat me to it!

Spring springing all around. Apple orchards just coming into blossom and the bluebells in full heavily scented pelt. Both taken Good Friday #Berkshire

🔥 These are golden times for wealthy people with inside information related to the US government.

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

What a glorious spring day, it lifted a the spirits and gave hope after a week of political anxiety.

If you are at an event where someone on stage gives a Hitler salute and that person is not dragged off by security and kicked out, you are at a Nazi rally.

I cannot bear the nonsense that the eBay AI creates, it is all unhelpful - describing a dining chair as ‘this wonderful chair crafted in brown wood seats up to one person’ makes sense to a robot but doesn’t tell me about age, condition or anything useful and it would be surprising if if sat two!

Thanks to the excellent @johnfinnemore.bsky.social for a splendid show in #Oxford last night - much enjoyed #Sinceyouaskme

Sorry @themerl.bsky.social forgot to tag you!

Not that he’s fully ‘here’ yet compared to elsewhere but the talented Mr Hodgson is here too! 👌🏻

Brandenburg concertos on in the kitchen to counter the buffety, blustery and bleeding awful weather so far today. #BacktoBach

Bonnie Année!

Will THIS be the year a that I even begin (let alone finish) any of my ‘Things I’d like to do in my life’ list…?

👌🏻

I hadn’t clocked that #BillyandMolly was on Disney - having read a recent review. A beautiful watch #otters

Geeeeettttt…. DRESSED, you merry gentlemen, let nothing you dismay! For it is Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Christmas Day!

Mmm home made marzipan…

Just stumbled across ‘Three salons at the seaside’ on BBC4 - what an amazing thing it is. Absolutely beautiful, full of pathos and love and wonderful camera observation.

Today WOULD be the day. For picking up dd1 from uni - delaying until last possible so wind has come down at least a knot!

If any of you fabulous people happened to be watching BBC 2 this evening at 9.00pm, you will find a marvellous new documentary drama #RenaissanceTheBloodAndTheBeauty, starring myself and Charles Dance (sadly not together. I am mostly there to say Michelangelo was definitely gay.)

How lovely of you x

Optimist: The cup is half full. Pessimist: The cup is half empty. John Rutter: Let's take this cup up a semitone.

Here comes the sun Do tn do tn Just missed the ‘ red sky in the morning’ shot!

What a lovely exhibition at the V & A, amazing to see such beautiful #Mughal art up close (and it really does need close examination to see the intricate detail).

A frilly #flamenco log #fungi #berkshire

Who else does #StirupSunday over the phone / on FaceTime etc for more disparate family members?

Something you might not know - I crochet a lot. With the scrap yarn I make nests for my local wildlife hospital. Here’s a baby stoat in one, small enough to fit in your palm 😁 #nature #handmade #wildlife #craft #rehab #warm #nest #hospital #crochet #yarn

Can you imagine trying to give up smoking only to come home and find your partner has brought these new curtains...

Yes there are bits that don’t entirely add up in #Wicked, (mostly that any of the students is still young enough to be studying, but then, this is a magical place) but generally what joyous fun and beltingly sung by all!

For anybody else who inconceivably hasn’t either…or introduced it to their children #theprincessbride

Crikey all - advent in a few moments and John Rutter needs a few more followers methinks! We’ll be singing Carol of the Magi this Christmas with Cantorum Choir #cookham

It was an unexpected pleasure to be invited earlier this year by my young colleague Anna Lapwood to serve as recording producer for her new album with the excellent Pembroke College Girls' Choir. It's full of good things! JR annalapwood.lnk.to/TheWaitingSky
