Yes, true
I can't believe it's 30 years 😮

This Life rerun

The best news! I shall rewatch.

Nothing has ever beaten this feat of televisual genius

(Discounting, of course, the terrible reunion)

With me, it does, yes

I've got some like this I've been redrafting for 10 years now....

Buns have kindly created a viewing portal in their hidey box

Emannuel Litvinoff

Yes! I also bought a book in @bricklanebookshop.bsky.social
Will visit Libreria next time

Wandered and wondered
It's all the same after all

Found a perfect dress
Wondered amongst the objects
Had a great coffee
Walked the streets my grandparents grew up in

What a fine morning

Should already have known this, but Brick Lane is vintage heaven ✨️

Huge disappointment that this shop does not offer what it promises

Portrait of Anna Akhmatova (1915)
by Nathan Altman

Funny you should say that.....

Exactly so
I think Rufus would even be jealous

Or perhaps I am him in my past or future life. Either way, it moves me

Almost certainly we had a passionate affair in a past life or will do in a future life.

L'homme endormi Carolas-Duran

I saw this painting a few years ago in Lille and think of it often

Poets are a Midas that turns anything on a poem

Midas
Doris Kareva

All that he touches turns to poetry.
And tears lump in the throat.

Indeed! 'My self-portrait' would be an excellent writing prompt as well....

Self-Portrait Between the computer, a pencil, and a typewriter

I’m truly not a child of the ocean,
as Antonio Machado wrote about himself,
but a child of air, mint and cello

And the best part: it's FREE

I went recently and liked it a lot. As others have said - small screens, good sound. I'd add nice bar.

I've got time for wry smile too though, don't get me wrong

What's your flavour?
Mine is contemplative
