Every time I think I'm too blinkered about English exceptionalism, we get the likes of #InteriorDesignMasters last night. An international arts festival in the seat of our FUCKEN government and it's all gags about deep fried Mars bars, haggis and Deacon Blue, whose first album is named for Glasgow.

Frasier's Darkest Moment
When the show turned a C-plot into a meditation on grief and compassion.

I have had the great fortune to eat many extraordinary meals at many extraordinary venues, but I honestly cannot recall a single dish which was improved by the addition of truffles.

The older I get, the more I wonder at those who capture the blunt, angry numbness of grief. Not just the sorrow; the emptiness, the rage. The tiring, tedious business of running on the spot.
I wish Brian comfort, and only hope he knows how many people his words will reach, and help.
