An instagram picture: One of the only journalists I respect or admire, @paulmasonnews, having lunch at @the_life_goddess_store_street today. I got chatting as we were both paying and mentioned we’d met briefly there a while ago when he was reporting intensively on the Greek crisis. A lovely guy, very well-informed and with a keen, enquiring and compassionate mind.
My heroes are Hakuin, Bankei, Rabelais, Montaigne and most Tang dynasty poets. And whoever invented beer. And motorcycles. And I like cats. Will that do?
