I love this piece and this version of it. Might be my favourite classical piece actually. I’m in the habit of listening to it to start my university day youtu.be/vE2O_yfgtBU?...

there's been a real plethora of fake publishing or conference scams sent over the last two days. More Indian names than Chinese ones for a change

Starting another marking day to the beautiful music of Catrin Finch and Seckou Keita. As I've been going backwards though my CD collection this year one by one, started with Echo, and now onto Soar.

That went well and was a lot of fun. Lots of great questions after, ended up discussing things for 45 minutes more after the original 50 minute presentation. Good students at the Universidad de Antioquia and thanks to Juan Diego Acevedo for the invitation. Back to marking tomorrow.

New Hantsfanspodcast out open.spotify.com/episode/3y1b... I'm on it again, taking time off from marking, but using that as inspiration for a laboured metaphor about our opening batters form so far. Give it a listen if you are a #Hampshire fan, or just like county cricket

I had the huge pleasure of teaching Jack Heath at the University of Leeds so it was a delight to be asked to chat to him about Colombian footballers playing abroad. He’s just had the article published here www.selondoner.co.uk/sport/140520...

Something I loathe is the whiny, whinging ‘give me sympathy’ attitude of celeb current or former drug addicts. No mention of all the poor people murdered or displaced elsewhere in the narcotics chain for your precious, entitled need to stick some powder up your nose.
