A blurred Quordle grid, showing that I solved the four words in five goes. You can just see that my opening word was 'gruel'.

There is a very small community out there who will be celebrating with me as I share the news that I solved today's #Quordle in 5 goes.

This always pairs with 'The Shores of Death', next one in the list on the 'Also by Michael Moorcock' page.

We pored over that list in the early 80s. Borrowing, trading, reading. Moorcock was a gateway to so much more.

The pay a bit more for an empty extra seat is such a great thing. With the bonus of being at the front giving you a great view

So while chatting with you last night I was watching Back to the Future. This is evidently a pic of the first test jump of Doc Brown's time machine.

That's right, the film is based on true events. And Einstein was a cavoodle.

A ruggedly handsome chap in his mid 50s holds up a copy of Curlews on Vulture Street, by Darryl Jones. The book has a blue cover featuring a Bush Stone Curlew, even more ruggedly handsome than the chap holding the book.

For any #birdoftheyear folk out there I can thoroughly recommend this book. Curlews on Vulture Street, by Prof Darryl Jones. Great stories about the birds who live where we do, and the science that has helped to understand them. @gingerandhoney.bsky.social

Just letting your body gently subside forwards till your head is resting on the table does the trick

The latest Intel asked @mrcoxy.bsky.social "What’s the one thing Australia could do to better address local conflict risks in our region?"

James’s experience in shaping global policy frameworks for fragile states informs his response this week.
