24.06.2025 23:31 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Boarding the Eurostar at St Pancras is not like taking the train down to London from Downton. Chaos, crowds, colourful roll-on baggage!

12.06.2025 15:14 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Wonderful gamelan concert last Saturday here in Vancouver. Note to self: gamelan is best heard outside or in a very large hall. 21 people hammering and drumming away in a 150 seat capacity facility make a LOT of noise...

A favourite author. We did a road trip in Australia with her Miss Phryne novels (all the published ones at the time) as our sound track.
Headlines like these make me wonder if Canada will have to demand proof of vaccination from US citizens trying to visit as their country turns away from science, research and public health.
