Autumn is amazing in the Hungarian countryside, especially if you ride it on your MTB. I'm the other guy in the video in the yellow helmet, and the chap who shot it, Péter Magyar is not the Hungarian PM, but an old friend with the same name.

Today marks the third anniversary of László Sólyom's passing. He was the first head of the Constitutional Court, and the third President of the Republic in post-communist Hungary. In his latter capacity he was my brilliant boss. We observed the day at his Budapest resting place.

Impressive piece! The wonder of first hand experiences with an open mind and genuine interest. If you want to undetstand Hungary follow Miriam's example and spend some time there!

It was a great honour to attend His Majesty’s annual reception for diplomats with my wife and colleagues at Windsor Castle @RoyalFamily. A memorable evening in an extraordinary setting, bringing together colleagues from around the world.
Huge congratulations to Hungarian-British author David Szalay on winning Booker Prize last night for Flesh. I know what my next book to read is going to be, and I guess I know yours too.
"I very successfully persuaded myself that I wasn't going to win... There was a sort of sense of shock."
