Back and Utterly Off-Topic

In the Cotswolds this weekend for two remarkable events. First, a party the like of which I shall probably never have again. Thanks N & E - you astonish.

Second, the extraordinary 'Heracles to Alexander' exhibition at the Ashmolean. If you are in England, or can get to England, go and see this before it closes on August 29. When I was very young I queued for hours, and then struggled to avoid being crushed in order to see the Tutankhamun exhibition.  But I really think this one is the more amazing, the more stunning. Dazed partygoer that I am, I remain amazed.

Delay not a moment: clear your diary and book your tickets today.

Lamentation

Unhappy the man who spends his weekend moving into a new computer, only to discover on the morrow that all his xl file links need re-building.
