Criterion, Kino and Terracotta in the UK are pretty much the only folks I order discs from these days.

For Shakespeare, as a local boy, I've got to support the Tempest tho it has its issues. That said, if I was naming a playwright of the period other than Wobbledagger, I'd go Ben Johnson: The Alchemist. By far my favorite play, full stop.

I got a leather case from Nappa Dori in London when I was last in the UK; really like it. Not as colorful as yours, but I'm a fan

Still working through the Great Siege of Malta. Highly recommended to lovers of history; the machinations of the Ottomans and the Knights of Malta are instructive tales.

that sounds remarkably like Ray Bradbury, but he did so many stories in a similar vein I'm not sure I could put my finger on this particular one

recommended viewing ref: smartest people in the room, Fog Of War, a documentary - it's on the drive. not a direct analogy to current situation but it's a fascinating watch

I love this particularly because it highlights Joe Wilson’s amazing cover art.

reminds me a little bit of a known issue with WWI era submarines; the mechanics of using the toilet were such that, if you got it wrong, (and it was easy to screw up), a disaster beyond your imagination will occur ...

'If we want to sit down, that's where the price goes up' - you know, the Globe Theatre in London works on the same principle. I've been there; it's fun!

see, when I impulse buy it's blu-ray from Kino Lorber or Criterion. Which, given import duties and shipping, is probably about as expensive as concert tickets, though perhaps not as expensive as *these* concert tickets.

A change from Anthony Price. I've nearly worked through the spy backlog, and wanted something historic to sink my teeth into. Thursday challenge accepted!

I can recommend hot room yoga. Not Bikram; i understand that's a bit ... what's the word ... obsessive. But if you want to build flexibility and core strength, hot room's a good route.

Yeah, it's a challenge. I started doing pilates and hot room yoga before COVID and I'm seeing a big difference. I never want to be an athlete; I want to be able to walk upright in my 80s. Which will also be a challenge, I expect ...

It means Joy. Happiness. Also, an incredibly challenging position to pull off. Took me four years to get it right, and I'm still not entirely sure how I did it. Still, you're the sort who likes a challenge ...
