#SHEPHERDSBUSH: well, finally, I get to see the #IndigoGirls after 27 years. Splendid gig. #closertofine #london #gig Thanks @indigogirlsmusic come back anytime!

#CHEESELOVER: in case you missed it, this launched a month ago, #cheeseconveyorbelt over in #SevenDials which is looking impressive as whole new areas in Covent Garden open up #cheese #London

#RICHMOND: some of the deer just do not care that you’re on a bicycle and trying to get home, it’s their manor and they’ll just walk out like a drunk pedestrian fiddling with their phone, knowing that it’ll hurt you more than it’ll hurt them if you don’t drop an anchor #richmondpark #deer #cyclinghome #bicycle

#MORETHEATRE: #MasterHaroldAndTheBoys / if you can stand the first two-thirds of this, it just about redeems itself in the end. Or have yourself a little nap and set a quiet buzzer to wake yourself up after an hour and change, like our seat neighbours did. Good stuff from #LucianMsmati and #HammedAnimashaun but @donmarwarehouse wins today’s double bill against @nationaltheatre #london

#THEATRE: #AliceBirch is truly fabulous, and #Blank is a monster of a play, 100 scenes allowing the director to choose. #CleanBreak is a “company working with women affected by the criminal justice system”. Apologies to @rjcrookshank but the ticket was hard to turn down! #london #donmarwarehouse

#THEATRERECOMMENDATIONS: don’t go and see this play #Translations #pretentious #theatre #london @nationaltheatre

#RICHMOND: bumped into my pal Tom, so we walked along the river, slipping and sliding on the silt left behind from high tide. #thames #london #river

Current unfinished and yet-to-start pile. #VirginiaWoolf is unfinished because it was so staggeringly beautiful I couldn’t bring myself to imagine that it would end, so I stopped halfway and started it again. Hopeless. The #JamesGleick is brilliant as is #PhilippaPerry, #JohnnyMarr is great and I really must get off my phone now

#STPAULS: from being soaked to the bone in the morning to being blinded by the sun in the city at lunchtime. Weather: no shortage of it. #london #stpaulscathedral

Catching the very last of the summer heat on the roof.
