Roger Deakin must be swimming in his grave. We need more wilderness not less #wildswimming
Last summer, my son, then 9, swam in an English river and suffered 6 whole days of diarrhoea and vomiting. It was very worrying. His friend was almost hospitalised. And now we’re told the only way we can have more houses is by sacrificing any hope of cleaning up our waterways. It’s so depressing. Humanity can surely be better than this.

So this is #London despite everything: last Sunday a Japanese pianist (#Uchida) played an Austrian composer (#Schubert) in a venue created by a German piano maker (@wigmore_hall ). And it was magnificent. #citizensofeverywhere
