If I have anything approaching a new years resolution, it's to get on top of my reading. Lots and lots of magazines come my way, and they pile up. What I need is less doom-scrolling, and more reading the words of people interested in the same things I am.
Watching the piles grow, especially of society journals, is embarrasing. I know how much work goes into them, and so they deserve to be read. OK, I'm still likely to drop the mag into the recycling, but at least I should have extracted as much information out of it as possible. They is definitely a better use of my time than reading clickbait headlines on the interweb.
Mind you, knowledge can be expensive. When I read that the Hartz railway is to de-carbonise, which I take to mean no steam trains, I'm looking up the price of trips to visit. It's always been on my radar, but not high on the list. Time for it to jump the queue. Sadly, the first trip I can find clashes with a show, but I wonder about the autumn...
