Cricket has lost the role it had in 1939 but it’s still far more than a game 🔗 — Excerpt: Sport means nothing if it is not about passion and connection and nowhere is that more sharply defined than in football, as we have witnessed since coronavirus ripped it from our lives in recent weeks and days.

My walk across desolate Venice 🔗 — Excerpt: Gregory Dowling: So, as I anticipated in my last post, yesterday I had the opportunity to take a long walk across Venice, since I had to go to the university to act as Chairman of a “commissione di laurea”, sitting in front of a computer and connecting telematically with the students…

Whipped feta, potato stew: Anna Jones’ recipes from Greece 🔗 — Excerpt: One of the things I need to remedy is is not having spent enough time in Greece.
