No matter how much I want to be a primrose, this says more about me as a profile pic: it’s food and wine, it’s France, it’s near a stunning Romanesque church, it’s on the route to Compostella, it’s in the shade on a sunny day, it’s the elements of the Eucharist. #OldProfilePic

Fascinating: Beethoven played Mozart's D minor concerto in Vienna at a concert organised by Constanze, shortly after Mozart's death. How was it? Or Brahms playing the Schumann concerto; Taneyev the Brahms D minor; Rachmaninov an all-Scriabin recital; etc, etc. They all happened!

These are the only electric outlets in my hotel room. How likely am I to go to the loo in middle of night and forget my phone is on charge (because of the mirror frame the adapter & charger don’t fit in the top socket, which may have been marginally safer)?

Next, a bank of lockers outside the supermarket where you can pick up your groceries 24 hours a day (click & collect even when the shop is closed), but there was one bank of lockers which were suitable for deep frozen food -ideal for midnight ice cream cravings.

Supermarket here (Finistère) has two fabulous add-ons 🧵 Firstly, a doggy shower. You put your laundry on in one room and pop next door to soap your canine friend. Seems ideal (& there was a vending machine to give added value: shampoo, brushes, bows)

I enjoy the life-sized Breton porch apostles and am happiest when I’ve spotted Andrew, fisherman patron of my homeland.

I offer my Offices today, and Vespers each day this Suicide Prevention Month, for those weighed down by despair, for families who grieve lives lost to suicide, and for all who walk the long road of survival. May hope find its way into every shadowed place.

An #Otwituary for fashion designer #GiorgioArmani My suit does not wear me, but it is empty without me. I stoop to tie my lace; it bends with me. At day’s end, we climb the stairs, undress, and hang each other in the dark wardrobe of sleep.
