I rarely attend auctions but today I'm attending one (Frome, a friend selling family items) but listening in to another (Bonhams London, where a Haile Selassie bust is coming up, which would be perfect in Fairfield House...but Jacob Epstein...won't come cheap)

First mistletoe on the new #KelstonRoundhill plantation. Wasn’t expecting that.

What have economists missed for all these years? Great talk by Nat Dyer launching his book "Ricardo's Dream" at Bath's #BRLSI, about the influence and limitations of the ideas David Ricardo (who married a Quaker, and came to Bath).
