Exciting news! the "Yellow Book Of Poems Volume 2" (by me) is now available from lulu.com only £4.85 + p&p for 149 pages. Everybody should buy it, although it's not as good as my first book.

Today I watched (for the umpteenth time) #TinkerTailorSoldierSpy #TTSS (the 2011 film version).

On 20th September 2012 I met, and shook hands with, Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla. On 13th November 2026 I met, and shook hands with, King Charles III. On both occasions it was in Surrey Street Market; on both occasions I didn't know in advance that he was going to be there.
Today I went to Surrey Street to celebrate the 750th anniversary of Surrey Street Market, which first got its royal charter in 1276. There I bought some buns and potato cakes, listened to some music, and shook hands with the King.
#Adolescence was very good but not as exceptionally brilliant as the hype. The 4 episodes were each from a different perspective (not all centred on Jamie) and the final outcome (the trial) was implied rather than explicitly shown. Great achievement in the single-shot technique.
