Am reading the brilliant #SuddenlySomethingClicked by Walter Murch. A great book for anyone who likes films but so insightful about so many aspects of working and thinking to make or do ANYthing. Fantastic.
I held off reading this by @matthewcobb.bsky.social because it might be #toomuchlikethedayjob for way too long. Fantastic - really enjoyable and often v funny. Strongly recommend!
Via @alzheimerssoc.bsky.social, @claudiacooper.bsky.social, Jen Keen & I had the chance to discuss how #dementia care might shift from hospitals to community with the APPG @ukparliament.parliament.uk. We have to use every opportunity we get to increase specialist support for people with dementia.

Scored some tickets for local artist exhibition! ‘Isleworth, 3 October 1876… Dear Theo, I heard from home that you were ill. How much I’d like to be with you, my boy. Yesterday evening I walked over to Richmond and I thought about you the whole way…’
