Sayonara, misty Tokyo. See you again in six weeks' time.
I've never eaten sushi. Principally because I don't eat fish. But last night, I took my daughter to a vegan sushi bar in Kabukicho, Tokyo and had some of the best food I've ever tasted. Astonishingly good. Babylon Sushi Bar, if you're ever in the area. #vegansushi #foodofthegods
Snow on Easter Sunday, Jesus Christ in reverse I tell ya, the Dutch are weeping in four languages at least #FallFriday youtu.be/rVtzzc_zZLw?...

Relatively grey day brightened up immeasurably by the arrival of a @weare1of100.bsky.social silver package of joy. #lovelylinen #handytshirt

Didn't expect Sean Johnson to get in on the #FallFriday action...
Met someone earlier this evening who told me she works 60 hours a week and all I could think of was stone toilet back gardens. #FallFriday youtu.be/skSfmmnbw5k?...

Heightened levels of cluelessness on display at Terminal 3 security, with several people seemingly unable to grasp the fairly simple concept of 'empty pockets'. #dickheads #getoutofmyway
I'll tell you what's up, Bluesky. My out of office is on for a week. That's what's up. Big annual rave-up in a castle in Carcassonne incoming. Then a couple of days in a thermal springs spa town in the Pyrenees by way of recovery. Bring it #convenanza #hotwater #alovefromouterspa
Convenanza week, so of course I can't fucking sleep. Must procure some sleeping aids. #convenanza #insomnia #insomnanza

Piddington sounds like someone from the old South African neo Nazi Afriikaner Weerstandsbeweging party saying 'Paddington', which is kinda appropriate really.
Big thanks to @europeanbarguide.bsky.social for the heads up about Bar Picchio. Have spent a delightful afternoon here wasting time before heading to the airport. A terrific old school bar I could easily spend far too long in. #milan #bars #waitingroom
Ok, so Birrificio Lambrate is fucking great, isn't it? Cheers.
I had to sing at a festival... boo hoo #FallFriday youtu.be/qy-LvUepEbA
