OK. In the great 'Which Titian is the Worst?' competition, pat yourselves on the back if you said Number 1. It was indeed the one that has just been sold in Austria for €4.8! For me it SCREAMS - 'studio work'. That face!
Couldn’t resist

Eggs from Alice’s hens, looking painterly for Easter/Passover
Cross cultural Easter/Pesach simnel cake. Instead of marzipan balls for the apostles we have an apple (charoset), egg and bloody lamb shank bone. Immodestly I have to tell you it’s delicious!
dinner for 2: chicken breasts a la Nigella (from chicken with spring onions, chilli...) and easy asian slaw
Lunch for 2: chestnut mushrooms, salad onion & diced celery with fresh thyme, garlic oil & butter in cast iron skillet, on multi-seed bread/toast
Just found a butterfly and some Herald moths hibernating on the wheelbarrow in our shed
Late dinner: Nigella's pink picante prawns nigella.com/recipes/pink-pic… Delicious, but egg white not a good adhesive
⁦@GallowayTravel⁩ please ask your driver not to drive while on the phone and not to block bus stops, as he did this morning in Knightsbridge. Thank you
