Food tonight is going to be arancini from the left over wild garlic risotto with some rocket - then may start watching Season 2 of Shadow and Bone (or more likely keep catching up with Repair Shop), may even have an alcohol free beer as a treat

I wouldn't usually link to info on The Other Place, but I'm really very proud of this new paper.

Published by Memory, Mind, Media (Cambridge University Press) today.

It shows how restoring the physical properties of certain objects can also restore memories associated with those objects.

A new series of The Repair Shop, on the BBC, starts today.

It's full of great old things, amazing craftspeople at work, and personal stories.

Surprisingly, it's also full of philosophy in action.

From watching Repair Shop, me and philosopher Dr Jude McCarroll show how repairing evocative objects also repairs memory.
