Family owners put Blackwell’s bookshops up for sale 🔗
This is a shame. Blackwell’s is usually my first port of call when trying to avoid Amazon. Their online service has been extremely comprehensive and efficient for me for years.

Kangaroo, 1986 - ★★★½
Interesting enough. A little slow paced, not hugely charismatic performances (and Colin Friels’ accent is weird!), but it did bring back recollections of the novel. Portrayal of post-WW1 Australian populist fascism seems too familiar to current times to be entirely comfortable - does it never go away?

Update to my Micro.blog Navigation List plug-in
I have just updated my Micro.blog Navigation List plug-in to version 1.0.6
Prior to this version a link to the list page was automatically added to the site’s main navigation menu. This is no longer the case.
So, if you do want the link to appear in your site’s main menu when the plug-in has been installed see the instructions in the GitHub README.
