Movie might, My Generation, with Michael Caine. Excellent documentary about London in the 1960s. Loads of nostalgia. What a time and place to be growing up in.

Probably not relevant, but I have to transfer a site from WordPress to ClassicPress and I might do it on Saturday and take the opportunity to make it a bit more IndieWeb.

Here's a fun one from this day in 2007: Dr Watson and the Missing Money

Cracking piece from Max Walker in Vittles, on the Devon Split, as a vehicle for the industrialisation of London's milk supply. I've never tasted one, but I kept thinking, which came first, the Split or the Marritozzo. Still none the wiser.

Composite view, with the rabbit quest on the left and a photo on the right: grass and some laurel bushes in the foreground partially obscuring lines of parked cars beyond the railings around the park. Across the road, more grass and a line of tall trees on the horizon.

After two long days in front of the computer, happy to see the quest in the local park again. The photo is facing directly away from the location.

IndieWebCamp Brighton 2024

Very interesting write-up, echoing many of my own feelings from IndieWeb camps. Sorry to have missed discussion of the evolutionary history of camels.

The on-this-day feature on my main site threw up a little gem today from way back when in 2006. I was so thrilled by the fact that the post is still live, and by the fact that it is as relevant today as it was then (perhaps more so) that I am linking to it again. https://lancemannion.typepad.com/lance_mannion/2006/03/living_large.html

A new Eat This Newsletter: the other shoe drops on lead in cinnamon; rye in Scandinavia and the recent oldest bread, which requires a small qualifier; doubts about agricultural subsidies that “that when reached will make them redundant”; and a history of British pies https://buttondown.email/jeremycherfas/archive/etn-233-leavened/
