Conversation about books, often those featured on Backlisted Pod; usually reading several novels at the same time.
Also UK wild pond plants, and #WildflowerHour.
Possibly occasional cats.

Love this: Reeves tells Treasury: "I will judge my time in office a success if I know that, at the end of it, there are working-class kids from ordinary backgrounds living richer lives, their horizons expanded, and their potential realised."

Not many Greens on here? I arrived here as part of a mass exodus of book podcast followers and one of the things I miss from The Other Platform was seeing what Jenny Jones was up to in the HoL

Sounds perfect. this recipe uses round about 1 lb of blackcurrants, so it's great for a small crop.

Reporting in here from Herefordshire: just the two Bill Wiggin Tory posters around here and literally countless shedloads of Green posters. Target Constituency. This is getting interesting!

Exactly. I love “make yourself scarce”: both parents used it when sitting down for a moment’s peace with a book, or generally when one was meant to be somewhere else. Must use it more often.

There's been a really nasty cold going round, and they seem to hang about with coughs and sinus trouble. Even if it isn't covid it's not much fun. Wishing everybody better soon.

Enjoyed reading this article about favourite dystopian fiction. Pleased to see a mention of Woman on the Edge of Time - I remember a friend so loved this book he bought several copies to lend to friends!

I’ll be listening again to the vintage Backlisted Podcast episode on Prince of West End Avenue. Not untypical as a “Backlisted book”, being finely crafted, and with comedy and tragedy beautifully woven together throughout. Recommended.

Something’s Gotta Give, 2003. Diane Keaton & Jack Nicholson, in their 60s, playing people in their 60s: hurrah. He’s a bit corny but she is SO COOL. Plot veers into daft at times but this is forgiven for the joy of the age thing and the genuine humour. Also various films with Older Harrison Ford.
