01. Rising program has been announced. I’ve booked a bunch of events. Can’t wait (it really is the best festival).
02. A week of catching up with friends – thrilled to see some from overseas who I haven’t seen since before COVID; and dinner with old work colleagues; and brunch with my opera friends (we’re not opera-ing this year because Opera Australia made a dog’s breakfast of the Melbourne program, so we’re brunching instead).
03. Re-watching: Succession in preparation for the new season.
04. Have added The Buoys to my disgruntled-girl-band list (alongside Wet Leg).
05. How is it that I’ve only just noticed the mirror ball emoji? Will be using it lots.
06. Never Never negronis and gimlets.
07. Stop everything. Eurovision for BOOKS (thanks to Paula for the alert).

Trying to work out the circumstances in which I can use a mirror ball emoji – I might just add it in at random intervals 😀
Cannot wait for the final season of Sucession – I’m so glad they aren’t dragging it out over too many seasons. That Eurovision Book Contest looks fun!
That Eurovision book contest… WOW… How can you nominate just ONE book?
