There are 246 sleeps to Henley Royal Regatta 2025. #HRR25 As the rest of the crew took a step backwards, it was clear the green dress would forever smell of English sparkling wine in July.. 📸 Tim Koch/@boatsing

History Makers 🙌 Thames Rowing Club had an incredible #HRR24, especially in The Wargrave Challenge Cup. The women's eights went on to make it three wins in three years, cementing themselves as the most decorated club in the event! #Wargrave

Sorry but there just isn’t a better poem to set off a transformative eclipse season Zagajewski (transl. Clare Cavanagh)
TRANSFORMATION I haven't written a single poem in months. I've lived humbly, reading the paper, pondering the riddle of power and the reasons for obedience. I've watched sunsets (crimson, anxious), I've heard the birds grow quiet and night's muteness. I've seen sunflowers dangling their heads at dusk, as if a careless hangman had gone strolling through the gardens. September's sweet dust gathered on the windowsill and lizards hid in the bends of walls. I've taken long walks, craving one thing only: lightning, transformation, you.
