Varied Surroundings

There is more to being human than travelling around the world sampling its many delights, and recent reading has taken me deeper into subjects like philosophy. Though I am a scientist by training, the humanities continue to appeal to me, and various life events have led me to explore them more than otherwise might have been the case. That is now the main thrust of what you find here, along with other things that have a use in navigating life’s journey.

So far, the selection features some pieces dating from better times that did not fit well in the Travel Jottings section where they used to reside. The fragmented nature of the British media landscape, its confused collection of nations and the restoration of Scotland's parliament all feature in this initial collection. There could be more yet, especially given the likely events over the next few years.
