I’ve been to Auschwitz & this exhibition is superbly curated with thoughtful and moving storytelling. The final screens with video of atrocities in Rwanda, Syria, Iraq, Cambodia, Bosnia etc serve to remind that bad things happen when good people do nothing. #seeingauschwitz

A great day out in my wonderful home town: Empty Cradles and Uli exhibitions at the Brunei Gallery, a wander around Borough Market and Southwark Cathedral and champagne tea at the Ivy Tower Bridge, my retirement present from my London Libraries friends soas.ac.uk/about/event/em…

Today, I was truly honoured to be awarded the Freedom of the City of London and I am so looking forward to driving my sheep over London Bridge.🤣 🐑🐏

Where do you find Cinderella in Stratford East- Gypt? At the panto of course! As usual, a brilliant show at Stratford East. Oh yes it was!!!

Such a lovely visit to Barbican Library yesterday. It still gives me a thrill to be there and it was so good to catch up with all my wonderful ex colleagues. The bonus was the latest Rockarchive exhibition in the music library. Unmissable. Loving retirement!

And so our 4 week trip comes to an end today. 7 stops around Japan by train, bus, tram and ferry and 3 stops in Thailand. Glorious! Not looking forward to the long journey home but it was worth it!
