This is going to be the last Five Things for now. I can’t quite believe I have done 265 of these, but it feels like the right time for a break. If you’ve enjoyed these posts keep an eye on my blog. Anything that’s worth sharing will be posted there in future!
Here are this week’s Five Things…
I’ve rediscovered my love of the game Mini Motorways. It’s available on Apple Arcade and Steam. I recommend it!
Richard Osman’s new Thursday Murder Club book, The Man Who Died Twice, is great. If you haven’t read the first one, you should!
Amazing photos: The Vatican Under Red Lights
An amusing collection of posters.
Really enjoying this new podcast series on Fat Leonard. He’s quite a “character”! “It’s the most shocking unknown tale of our era: A defence contractor who bribed navy officers with cash, prostitutes and luxury items in return for multi-million-dollar deals.”
Thanks for reading!

A collection of both excellent and terrible reinventions of everyday objects.
An interesting episode of The Guardian’s Today in Focus podcast on panic buying: “[W]hen that behaviour is described as panic, blame is easily passed on from those responsible for our shared infrastructure to those who rely on it.”

Miniature life.
