If you fancy a digital detox I can recommend the North Devon coast which appears to have almost no mobile phone reception or free WiFi.

I don’t know what the answer is but I know that it’s definitely not Jeremy Corbyn.

They hate ‘modernism’ / brutalism because so much of it was funded by the state. It represents everything they are fighting so hard to destroy.

I’d probably agree although I had some pilsners in the Czech Republic and some decent ‘dunkelbier’ in Germany that might knock on the door of a top 5

Haven’t had the pleasure of trying either. Are they all British cask ales out of interest?

Go on: I’m curious now what are the other 5?

Ruben your 2020 portrait lives in my head rent free. When I see your artistic journey since then it makes me feel very emotional.

Nancy likes vampires and heavy metal music. She identifies as Slytherin. If you went back in time and asked Picasso to do a portrait that captured her spirit I don’t think he would do a better job.

Max: are those muscles or do you have 3 elbows on each arm? Also what’s the horizon line? Are you in water? Jumping up from behind a fence? Is it all just a dream?

Joshua and Charlie have drawn themselves in a box: that’s cool. I feel like there’s different things going on here though. Maybe Charlie’s on an actual piece of paper?

I’m going to go with the obvious questions first. Heron: it’s 2025 and you’re 9 years old: why are you wearing a top hat?

I also enjoyed Hyde Park which is a bit like a forest with the trees spaced out a bit. It’s a nice time of year just before the canopy appears so the trees still feel a bit like figures which intermingle with human ones: something I tried to capture here with an ancient oak in the foreground.

Went to see the Guiseppe Penone exhibition at the @serpentinegallery.bsky.social last week. I loved the drawings of undergrowth made from natural dyes and the trees cast from steel holding up rocks are 🤯

Wow! Why are you out in Northampton on a Friday night? Grabbing a nice dinner at Yates wine bar?
