I only know "When does the bus arrive?" "Which bus?" "The bus with those people." "What people?" "The people who are interested in this?" Or short just: Wann kommt der Bus?

Queens, Princesses and Duchesses wore their precious jewels. The Cartier exhibition at Victoria & Albert Museum explores high craftsmenship and creativity.

The efforts people make to win the 'Decorate your chimney top' competition are impressive.

Creditors at Orange Tree Theatre What a delightfully vile play about a vindictive man destroying his ex-wife's marriage with a web of hints, allegations, insults. Was the joy in this cruelty fuelled by Strindberg's unhappy marriage? Strong trio Nicholas Farrell, Geraldine James, Charles Dance

Can't wait to see this.

At my age you get tendinosis before reaching the year.

I was wondering who he was, standing so lonely on a pedestal, when I stayed just opposite.

Thank you to the cast and author of #JuniperBlood at #Donmar for their time, for signing the rehearsal photos and for my photos with #SamTroughton #HattieMorahan #JonathanSlinger
A spell-binding production.

#TheGatheredLeaves at #ParkTheatre A dreaded family reunion, a despot father, sibling fights, old wounds reopened, spirits stifled by high expectations. #ChrisLarkin's Giles moved me deeply as the soothing voice in the verbal battles.

#GoodNightOscar the fine line between genius and madness is blurred for Oscar Levant. #SeanHayes is wonderfully vulnerable with manic energy.He misses the admired Gershwin, conjurs up his ghost, alluring #DaveBurnett.

#AWintersTale at @the-rsc.bsky.social is no tale of black & white. Bertie Carvel and John Light point out that both "brothers" have their demons. A strong Paulina and a pure Perdita move events towards reconciliation. Magical bear fight. Mystic sound carpet by Rhianna Compton.

All my good wishes for the surgery.

The same happened in Germany in 1974 after the crash of Herstatt Bank that also involved Hans Gerling's insurance imperium. The public's trust in banks and insurances was shattered forever. James Graham's play wonderfully explains the cascade of wrong decisions that damaged the financial markets.

Saying goodbye to #Edinburgh, 31h later than booked, but I made good use of the extra time and sunshine.

My flight was cancelled, so I had more time for visiting places mentioned in the play MAKE IT HAPPEN by James Graham. After Calton Hill, here are the former RBS Building in St Andrews Square and the statues of Smith and Hume in Old Town. The play breathes Edinburgh through and through.

I struggled uphill, but what a splendid view over Edinburgh from Calton Hill.

The Museum of Magic and Witchcraft in Edinburgh shows spooky exhibits from all over the world. Where will I find a dried bat to fight off evil spirits from my home?

Enjoying the world premiere of Make It Happen by James Graham, a perfect portrayal. Goodwin's hubris is supported by our modern financial tools. It mirrors the arrogance of the golden boy traders who brought Herstatt Bank down in Germany and echoes the Lehman's urge for growth. They never learn.

Do you believe in love at first sight? I know these mystical water spirits want to take you down with them, but the Kelpies Duke and Baron are beautiful, majestic, mysterious. HelixPark Edinburgh

James Graham you had me at "Greek Furies". This horror is timeless. Hubris and thirst for power destroy livelihoods, shake the financial markets. No remorse, no accountability. Sandy Grierson is marvellous as Goodwin, Brian Cox adds welcome humour. Make It Happen, Edinburgh

The Museum Of Childhood shows many of the toys we had, Monopoly, watercolour box, Scrabble, the real Lego, construction kit, the dreaded Struwwelpeter. All comes back, I am 10 again. Edinburgh

Narrow passages, endless staircases, beautiful signs, the Closes and Courts leading from one main street to a parallel one. I met the Plague Doctor at Mary King's Close. Edinburgh

Hello, I am a chambermaid in a thriller. Whenever I carry a full breakfast tray upstairs, you know I am about to find a murder victim, drop the tray and scream.

Congratulations to the Lionesses. Great match.

In German we would say something like "it misses my backside by an inch", "das geht mir am Ar*** vorbei".

Tiny little pearl skulls arranged in a pattern that resembles a heart.

The Japanese artist Shinji Nakaba is a master of creating skulls and other anatomical forms from pearls no larger than the end of a finger tip. Nakaba considers these works “wearable sculptures,” as each pearl takes the form of a ring, necklace, or pin.

Great news. A chance to revisit RSC Twelfth Night with Sam West and Freema Agyeman at the Barbican.

It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose “no” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.
