I spoke to my sister yesterday afternoon. She’s gone to Singapore for the weekend (a five hour flight from Delhi, who doesn’t care about her carbon footprint, then?) to see a friend. “What’s it like?” I asked. “The city’s ok, I suppose, but the airport is amazing”.
The woman who created the beautifully designed website you see before you here today. She used to post a lot more but I think now that she must have channelled her energies into more useful things. I still enjoy her occasional posts but I wish she would post more, I used to really like her blog, especially fun in the days when she was playing around with formats.
Nearly won a copy of the LRB from me.  Mother of one, nearly mother of two. Watch this bump. Funny and endearing. Sorry, this sounds like bad back of book blurb but it’s true.
