What a splendid read, as always! I want to learn how to enjoy the quiet moments more - appreciate the sound of the rain, the sound pages make being turned when I’m reading in bed, or the frantic boiling of the kettle.
What a great newsie today - from the transcribed reel to horse's philosophical moment it was all a win for me. If I could learn one thing it would be an African language. As a white South African I feel hugely fraudulent not being able to speak a native tongue. How rockstar to be able to converse in Xhosa or Zulu...
Enkosi Maja 🙏🏼🙏🏼 From my small attempts at Xhosa, even a few words can help bring you closer to those around you. If a limited vocab brings positive energy, I’d love to experience fluency.
Shoutout to Di, needed that for this week ahead. I would be so interested to try that method with country music because I can probably count the number of country songs I like on one hand and maybe that would change.
PS Am a huge F1 fan thanks to Drive to Survive. Loved your story. I took over the lease of an apartment in Oxford from Fernando Alonso back in the day, so I feel like family 🤣🤣
Gulp, this feels a bit like a healthy confession. I would REALLY like to master Excel beyond sum, insert, delete and alphabetise….. I feel such a fraud actually using Excel.

I can’t lie, Clare… but me too. I wish I knew enough to give you some excellent lessons 🧮
