“Solastalgia is a neologism that is becoming commonplace. It describes a feeling of homesickness while still being at home. It is a sense of loss, but also a feeling of confusion: the planet that we think we live on no longer exists. In a warming world, words become unmoored from their meanings.”

Breakfast with the scrap, now the schools are on holiday.

A girl eating poached eggs on toast. A breakfast bagel at Laughing Dog, Worthing.


This morning I shall mainly be monitoring streaming bandwidth.

Restream.io analytics on an iPad Pro in church.

First day of the school summer holiday, obviously.

A rainy Sussex afternoon.

A happy transatlantic delivery.
