This lovely image is from my friend Sans Talbot’s coloring book The Sacred Feminine, Volume 1 (2023). She is the visual embodiment of a delicate bloom of learning. And, now, let’s set the stage for a comparison of my experience at Oxford in 1986 and Ruby Granger’s experience in 2023.
Your advice is spot on. Cooking solitary vegan meals and retreating often sounds good to me, but I'm old and getting picky about food. 😂 Kid needs to try being a little less austere, seize the day!
Good for you for getting into the design work. I did see the design for the sheets and especially liked the one with rain drops. I will look forward to more writing from you when you feel inspired. ❤️
A really moving post. You manage to bring back a lot of memories have made me think about the comparison between my arrival at Oxford and my younger son's arrival at the same college there many years later. Like you, I have good and bad memories of the place. Your skill in threading two stories together has really helped me to reflect on what I learnt, what I failed to learn. Thank you.
Just finished watching a Merry Berry cooking show on BBC. Big Food and Big Socializing are key themes. Your mention of the common cooked dinner makes me long for family & community comforts....
I love this comparison between your experiences at Oxford and Ruby’s. Her Vlogs are very interesting and uplifting. I am drawn in by her freshness and enthusiasm. Looking forward to reading more about you both.
That was great! I guess you got pregnant in that single bed because there wasn't enough room for two people...
I loved the university vibe and hung out at the Auckland university as detailed in my story worzel wez. They always had a week at the start of the year called orientation which was one big party!

I hope you haven’t stopped writing your posts. I miss your voice.
