‘“The Hands” moves from the slightly mysterious to the downright sinister’ - Anna Aslanyan reviews Paris Fantastique by @nicholasroyle for @TheTLS
New short stories. Paris Fantastique. Available to pre-order from @Confingo
Films watched in April. All for second or third time apart from Niagara, which I don’t think I’ll see again.
Couple of clues in Everyman crossword in new @ObserverUK repeated from last week. 1 down & 16 down 🤔
I suggest to @IKEAUK that that comma should be an ellipsis. Or even a dash. Or nothing. Anything but a comma.
Chucked out yesterday, Central Road, Withington/West Didsbury. What state will they be in this morning?
Definitely not A Certain Ratio on University Challenge tonight @massonix808
Important new translation of Albertine Sarrazin by Sonya Moor announced by @Confingo confingopublishing.uk
Found in a jacket pocket. I remember putting it there but why did I miss off the W? And what was it about? And why a doily? @MjTurner_
If you’re trying to catch @AvantiWestCoast there’s no point arriving on time. You must arrive early. Arrive on time & you’ll find train waiting (assuming it’s on time, big assumption), doors locked. Doors close 40s before departure. But at Stockport, where do they tell you this?
Well, where, then?
Here, facing the track, with about a foot between it and the yellow line, and if you step beyond the yellow line you know you’re likely to be publicly shamed. Please stand back behind the yellow line.
So here it finally is. To read it at a comfortable distance you have to stand with your foot on the yellow line. Well done @AvantiWestCoast
