Another incredible rescue by the heroes at @airzermatt - am so pleased everyone made it down safely but ‘inadequately equipped with light shoes and light sweaters’ is quite damning… so many lives put at risk….
Asked Mum to bring my ice axe for upcoming #alps trip on her next trip to London. She couldn't find it so brought me choice of two ice axes (each 70 yrs + old) which would fit happily into current #dorothypilley #climbingdays exhib at @thealpineclub . @Dan_Zep might appreciate...
Stellar line up @thealpineclub last night to celebrate Dorothy Pulley’s legacy. Well done @Dan_Zep for a great event. Beautiful edition by @canongatebooks. And I loved the display of Pilley’s ice axes too…
CLIMBING DAYS RELAUNCH PARTY
Tomorrow - 7pm @thealpineclub - 55 Charlotte Road, Shoreditch, London, EC2A 3QF
Come along to raise a glass to Dorothy Pilley & hear the brilliant @natalie_a_berry of @UKClimbing & @SarahJLonsdale talk about Dorothy’s amazing life & ongoing legacy
Still marvelling at and thrilled by my amazing #brockwelllido birthday cake. Thank you to @lucyburns01 and to @adams_cakes for making it happen! cc @Brockwell_Lido @BrockwellLido

Absolutely loved the riotous #loveliesbleeding - think #BeyondthePines meets #ThelmaandLouise with a pinch of #IncredibleHulk…. Treats in store include: Ed Harris’s wig, grotesque prosthetics and muscle flexing sound FX…. Oh and KStew is to die for…
Very happy to have found my way to #doublingback by @LindaJCracknell - ‘ten paths trodden in memory’. I have also spent a good part of the last two years doing exactly that… 1/2
Mesmerised by this photograph of Vita in what is now Iran on display at @SissinghurstNT today.
Really enjoying #theeverestobsession on @BBCRadio4 - not just the famous names but lots of focus on the critical role of Sherpas on the mountain. Recommended.

That thing where you thought you were further along with your drafting than you actually are. And the only thing to do is to sit down and get back into it... Onwards.

So sad to read this terrible news coming out of #zermatt this morning. And to think that most of them are family members….

Really pleased I went along to this lovely show. Life in death with music, film, personal stories and some great performances - very touching. We Brixtonians are so lucky to have @BrxHouseTheatre in our community.
Tonight’s the night - Circle of Fifths is opening at @BrxHouseTheatre to celebrate life in death and bring the stories of Butetown to Brixton.
Tickets for tonight are sold out, but it’s not too late to book for 18, 19 or 20 January.

Anyone in search of #inspiration on #NewYearsDay2024 should head straight to Louise Casey’s #fixingbritain for a masterclass on how to get things DONE!

Third, watching @annettebening giving it everything in #nyad - bitten by jellyfish, etc - has definitely kept me sane today….
Second, love this from @legroff - opening up a massive book st ore next year….

After a day battling (actually i’m still battling) cancelled trains and closed stations - I’m looking at you #euston and #kingscross - I’m currently waiting for my connection in Leeds on my way to the Lakes…
…and i’ve decided to stop moaning and go in a different direction… so I’m highlighting some things that have inspired me on my journey (of hell, no stop it!) today….
First up, the final ever #literaryfriction podcast. Thank you so much @PlittyC and @octaviabright_ for an amazing ten years! Appreciated and learnt so much from all your interviews but actually loved your double act the best….
