We get knocked down, but we get up again. The last four years have been tough. And, yeah, by that I mean 2020. It has been a moment, and methinks it’s worth acknowledging it. So drop a pin: We are here. I am here. You’re never gonna keep me down; I’m a survivor. And if […]
If ever there was a week to veg and keep it chill, this is the one, America. Our collective COVID-19 numbers are out of hand, so, as you can appreciate, it is ultimately the nurses and doctors and frontline workers – the ones for whom the pots and pans once banged (remember that sense of […]

I’ve mixed feelings about this one, but it was bound to happen – and that’s the sunnier side of the street, feelings-about-it-wise, so good on ya, Miami, for carrying on and having a Basel season in 2020, after all.
