On International Workers Memorial Day - recalling the Marcinelle mining disaster of 1956; the deadliest day in the history of Belgian coal mining. Fire swept through the pit, claiming 262 lives, of whom 136 were Italian guest workers. One English miner was also among the dead.
🇹🇷 🤩
I’m reading Chosen Country by John Dos Passos. Much of it is about the attractions of Paris to Americans who had served in the Great War and stayed on. When I wrote 1923, that was a small recurring theme. I like this passage - the main protagonist falling for the French capital.
I went to see @danteordie's excellent production Kiss Marry Kill at the frankly astonishing Stone Nest venue last night. All these years of walking past this little doorway in the West End not realising what glories lay behind it.

Got a nice bit of pre-filming for ITV's TdF coverage set up - a feature for one of the rest days. Won't say any more, but I think you'll enjoy it. July will come around fast.
The Expressionist exhibit @Tate Modern is awesome.. this work by genius Fran’s Marc was killed in WW1 prompting the German government to set up the German Artist war Artist scheme… that saved Fran’s Marc’s friend Paul Klee who spent the end of WW1 painting camouflage on aircraft
So I had a chat with the guys from Spring. They’re pretty tied up now, something to do with snagging on the March job. But they reckon they might be able to pop round and do us a quote in a couple of weeks. I’m thinking let’s sack them off and just wait for the Summer lot.

Despite the sending-off, the penalty and the result, it was something special to be with my daughter in a crowd of 39,000 at Stamford Bridge this evening to see Chelsea vs Barcelona in the semi-final of the women’s Champions League.
@nedboulting I have finished Germinal today. Woah that was a tough read but i’m grateful that you introduced me to it. I may look into this now!
Who knew @nedboulting had a spiky side? Found his performance on #FightingTalk this morning quite refreshing, apart from apologising on behalf of all cyclists of course; you'll get some flak for that from the small but militant #cyclingtwitter community Ned. @FightingTalk316
Enjoyed @nedboulting on #FightingTalk . 'Digital incel'. 'Tech charlatan.' 100pc correct on radio's idiotic obsession with hitting the news junctions. Up there with the untoppable Bob Mills.
@nedboulting Upstairs driver’s seat, Ned. Always the best seat on the bus. ❤️
@nedboulting Looks like you’ve secured prime position- the upstairs pretend drivers seat. There should really be a toy steering wheel up there.
@nedboulting If those were the criteria then there'd be nothing on this site at all.
@nedboulting I have got on it. Booked tickets, I'm now off it in case anyone else wants to. In other news I have just read in Fignon's autobiography: 'within every champion there is a streak of spite, brutality, violence, the urge to dominate'. This echoes your 'all Tdf winners are bastards'
Jack and I have a lot in common...according to some!
@M1ckBennett I have two. Actually, I have three. Two kittens (Billy and Mary) and an old curmudgeon called Jack.
@nedboulting Fantastic! It will be brilliant! I will not miss it!
@nedboulting Sorry Ned, what were you saying? I was distracted by Billy the Cat 😸 I now have an even higher opinion of you because you have a cat. I'm surprised you get any work done, given cats and keyboards.
@nedboulting I've just seen it advertised - in Ilkley! And it's on my birthday! Yay!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
@nedboulting Oh, sorry. That was me. I'll click the 'uncancel' button.
@nedboulting I hope Hertford Theatre re-opens in time.
