This is a hell of a story, and also depressingly unsurprising.

Are you a restaurateur or hotelier looking for a bit of cheap kit? The entire contents of the Birch Selsdon Hotel, Croydon is being sold off. And there's some nice stuff currently going for buttons.

Lots of truly brilliant stuff on Raye’s new album, the big band number I Hate the way I Look Today, among them (link). Most touching: the way she name checks every single person who worked on the album, incl every member of the LSO. Classy.

A comment over on the old place. It’s not a bad definition of a restaurant critic. May put it on my website.
The word ‘investigation’ in this headline is doing an awful lot of heavy lifting.
Just been approached by Huel to see if I'll be part of their paid influencer campaign. I don't think they're quite across what I do for a living. (FWIW, and in the interests of having influence, I regard Huel as a soul destroying, miserable product and the death of all that is worth living for.)
