Not here any more.

Not leaving here quite yet, but have set up camp over on the other side too. Still finding my feet, but do come and find me if you’re that way inclined: https://t.co/hsowKtyufZ

@clotimms @CaileanSteed Hi Chloe, I’d love to have a chat with you about a couple of Canongate authors. Please do drop me a dm? x

[Anna Frame @annaframe]

@HeatherParryUK Look at those quotes!!!

[Anna Frame @annaframe]

@beaton_bruce There is more underneath - but only the same products. My point wasn’t that they were using the space badly, but that the range has diminished massively: eg, you can now only buy bags of 5+ oranges, not a couple loose…

[Anna Frame @annaframe]

Noticeable change at my local Tesco - these bays used to reach down to the ground, but are now designed to hold fewer baskets.

My assumption is that they’re anticipating shortages of fresh veg, but I don’t want to leap to false conclusions. Anyone have any other suggestions??

@fionamsharp @canongatebooks Glad it arrived safely with you.

Notable thread from Paul Webster on the potential sale of the Observer, the paper of which he was editor until last week. It's a pretty extraordinary step for him to speak his thoughts in this way...

[paul webster @paulfwebster]

Here's why I think the proposed sale of the Observer to Tortoise would severely damage the reputation of the Scott Trust and threaten the future of the world's oldest Sunday newspaper, which I edited until last weekend 🧵

One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This by Omar El Akkad. The most important book you'll read next year. If I annotated, every word would be underlined. A coursebook, a seminal text, a desert island discs book. Preorder it and buy five for your friends. 🇵🇸

@jamiemchale Ah interesting - yes, perhoas.

@mikewadejourno Huge news, Mike! x

[Anna Frame @annaframe]

@KatyaTaylor Ha, I don’t doubt it. I just meant I’d go stronger!

[Anna Frame @annaframe]

@KatyaTaylor Not the verb I'd choose for a statement so ludicrous, but I agree with the sentiment.

[Anna Frame @annaframe]

I couldn't be more delighted to see the brilliant @Jdcrawf at the helm of this new @BBCRadio4 book show, recording in Glasgow weekly.

(My previous concerns about the lack of space on radio for new and midlist voices do remain, but I'm very much hoping to be proved wrong...!)

I was waiting to hear from @kwbogen about what happened in Amsterdam…

Here she is. didn’t disappoint ♥️..
Listen to every word she said.

<< …he learned from camp guards.

The simplification and valorisation of the stories of war does no one any good. And our governments and media claiming to commemorate them while wilfully ignoring their lessons is far worse.

Never again should mean never again.

Four photographs for Remembrance Sunday:

1) My grandmother’s British Army regiment, for whom she drove trucks in WW2

2) Her father’s WW1 German regiment, torn in two and taped back together

3) That same great-grandfather’s release papers from the British internment camp… >>

[Anna Frame @annaframe]

<<…into which he was placed, having fled Nazi persecution for his Judaism.

4) The diary kept by my Scottish grandfather, while a prisoner of war in a German camp for 4 years. He’d go on to marry the daughter of German refugees, with whom he’d speak in the language… >>
