A Stag of Seven Tines
First things first, yes of course it's an attempted coup, and has been for some time. The era of British sakoku may be about to begin...
...however, the coup has not yet succeeded.
Also, as though to close out a more civilised era, yesterday I went to the Cotswolds again, in company with a small posse (here seen relaxing in Castle Combe), including my Japanese teacher, Kei, and the two latest recruits to Fosse Farmhouse:
My main reason was to retake a picture of Bourton Model Village, my previous ones having turned out to be too low quality, but we did quite a bit of supplementary sightseeing, topped off a visit to Broadway Tower, a first for me, where we got a bit distracted by this magnificent herd of red deer...
Quite a set of antlers, no? When you have antlers like that, you don't really need to try to get academic articles published. For the rest of us, however, it's a different story. I sent my revisions off today.
