BOOK: This is Not a Self-Help BookI just finished reading Mark Mehigan’s This is Not a Self-Help Book, and it’s just brilliant. I’m trying to read more, as I’m one of those people who needs to learn to shut off. TV: Sex and the CityI absolutely love terrestrial TV. I really enjoy the feeling of everyone watching something at the same time then live-posting on social media about it. FESTIVAL Trinity Summer SeriesOver the years I’ve been championing Trinity Summer Series, there’s something special about the central location.

Considering London is a leading global banking centre, the lack of vision among our home grown banks is pathetic. Across the world, banks are starting to look beyond the great financial crisis. Both appear to have become risk averse, which largely explains why the shares sell at large discounts to their American counterparts. It is high time that UK banks freed themselves from the shackles of post great financial crisis caution. Working patterns since Covid-19 and a fightback by the City of London has left London’s second financial district with a problem.

And finally: "This past spring break, I went on a trip for school with teachers and admin. At one point, our group (about eight) had to take a city bus a short distance to our next touring spot. Not me, but someone in our group was just talking and talking about life when a local rider, seeming friendly, asked, 'Excuse me, where are you from?' and the woman in our group said, 'Texas.' The local said, 'Well, they say everything's bigger in Texas — that means your voice too?
