Very happy to announce the publication today of our third book of a series devoted to the plays of Jean Racine, this one on Bajazet and Mithridate. It contains pieces by a wonderful range of scholars. Please order it for yourselves or for your library! brill.com/display/title/…
Paris's Moulin Rouge windmill wings collapse overnight. The wings of the iconic French landmark fell off for reasons not yet known. No injuries were reported.
Here comes the rain again ........ 🙄
Thanks to @OperaVision_eu, I've just watched @bruno_ravella's @IrishNatOpera Salome, a thoughtful piece of theatre with the focus psychological detail, and often all the more alarming for its very restraint. Sinéad Campbell Wallace is the real thing in the title role, too
A genuine low point for Britain. Let it be the lowest. Getting these abject sociopaths out of government will be the start, but only the start, of a long, long journey.

There will hopefully once again be a time when British politics is not, day in, day out, all about multi-millionnaires who life has treated very well being performatively cruel to all sorts of people it hasn't
A move into darkness. Sunak doubtless sees it as a right wing sop but he's detached from our reality. Rishi Sunak wants to ban our GPs from being able to sign us off when we're sick! Sign the petition now and demand these dangerous new plans are dropped. 38d.gs/ie_a
A fourth week and still coughing, though it's now going with tedious slowness in the right direction. Though my GP thinks whooping cough 'unlikely,' the symptoms suggest I may have caught it as an adult. Whatever, there's something nasty out there, so take care, good people
A much love doll, Olive, has just been lost on a train either at Doncaster or on the @LNER train from Doncaster to London. I have a devastated little girl and I’ve seen these sorts of posts work before.

Joseph Keilberth was born in Karlsruhe #OnThisDay in 1908. This is his 1963 Munich performance of Strauss's Intermezzo, with Hanny Steffek, Hermann Prey and Ferry Gruber, directed by Rudolf Hartmann. It's never, in my opinion, been bettered. youtube.com/watch?v=MSenGi…

This was the original site of Liverpool’s Bijou Opera House, which was originally a chapel. It then became The Yamen Cafe & suffragette centre, & in 1935 was converted into a car showroom. Quite some history, I have long wished to buy it and found the Bijou Opera Company…!

It's 6.39am, +2.3°C, overcast, no wind, length of day 15h 56min. Love these quiet moments over the morning tea before anyone else is up. Today joining some family for a Thai lunch and having coffee and cake afterwards at ours. Family is everything. Wonderful Saturday, all.

Tomorrow I'm going to the RFH for a quick afternoon concert. Starts at 3 pm and there's only one work so it should be over in plenty of time for tea. It's called (checks listing) Götterdämmerung. Hm... could be anything.
