Happy New Beer 🍻🍷🍹🎈🎇✨

 


Welcome to the amazing world of 2022. What new wonders will it bring? The Water Tiger will be splashing your way soon. Do you have any predictions? Resolutions? Revolutions? Left-over Christmas Cracker jokes? 

 

Happy New Rear! May it be fruitful for you and yours. 

A few weeks back I mentioned that Arthur Koestler lived in these parts for a time. Visitors included George Orwell. A friend pointed out where it is, not that far from my house, though it is obscured by a rocky hill and small wood. Her husband has memories of "Mr Koestler" living there.

Still on the property beat, I used to pop into East Greenwich Library to check stuff. 

The  Moomins newspaper strip ran in the Evening News, written and drawn by Jasson's brother at that point I think? However, my first steps into Moominland were most likely when they read one of the novels on Jackanory. So there is a fond nostalgia with this Radio 4 version of Moominland Winter. Bonus: More Moomin stuff.

I'm stuck at work. How are you kicking off the next lap round the sun?
