Jeff Buckley died on this day in 1997 and I heard a guy on the radio earlier say that he was "probably best known for his cover of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah". Eh, no. This is what he was best known for. Pure musical genius.

What baffles me about age limit competitions is that it's the people OVER 40 or 50 or 60 that NEED the exposure. 20-year-olds have a lot more years ahead of them in which to be published.

Nice to see another female artist who - like Lee Miller and Man Ray or Dora Maar and Picasso - was overshadowed by her male counterparts finally getting recognition. "Ophelia resurfaces: pre-Raphaelite muse is recognised as a skilled artist"

Sickening - and quite sinister - to see the BBC kow-towing to the Tories and the far-right. "Match of the Day to air without presenter or pundits after Gary Lineker’s suspension"
