Did a thing. Not entirely serious but...ya know xD holmesian.wordpress.com/2025… #SherlockHolmes #ArthurConanDoyle #JacktheRipper

It's interesting, there's a lot of resources and advice out there for avoiding burnout or recognising the signs...but very little on what recovery is like. I'm still recovering 3yrs later.

I guess you’ll have heard the news, that 2025 is to be ITV’s last Tour de France. Surprised (no free-to-air for London 2027??). Slightly in shock. No Gary presenting the Tour. Hard to believe.

Germany: here's a Deutschland Ticket, you can use any train except for the ICE. Enjoy it. UK: Oh under normal circumstances yes this ticket would be valid BUT today is the first sunny Wednesday since two week after St Swithen's day. Prison for you, and we're killing your dog.

Apparently, chatting to the pigeons at Euston is weird. I think it's weirder if you don’t chat to them as they try to steal you lunch

Many career women who worked in Britain’s secret services shied away from having their photograph taken & destroyed personal papers shortly before their deaths. We will never know their real faces, but I have ensured their names are known & their lives recognized in my debut book #HerSecretService out 24 October @wnbooks @orionbooks These include several MI6 women - Olive Montgomery, Beatrice Peters, Muriel Jones & the youngest woman employed at the age of 14, Gladys Lincoln. #WeRemember #herstory #spyhistory
