Saturday 8th February 2025

Woke around 0800. Languished in bed for an hour or so. Got up and cooked a generous brunch. Read some Dickens. Headed for Stoke Newington around 1300. Walked to Finsbury Park in the drizzle and caught a 106 bus. Got to Stokey with enough time to spare to grab a coffee and a sandwich in Pret. There were about 30 of us for the first Moby cast get together. Intro games etc…all good fun. Shared our research on the 19thC whaling industry…I crept away early to hook up with Aki and Tokiko at the ICA to watch Japanese film In The Wake…nice performances, but it all ended up with a silly plot twist. Came out around 2000 and headed for summat to eat in Chinatown…
