This is a great obituary of Nabil Shaban, by his friend and collaborator, Simon Mckeown. Nabil made me think differently when I was young and exploring disability and arts. I clumsily identified with his otherness and I loved his talent and defiance.

A splash of royalty on tonight’s Gogglebox. Kings and Queens…on the chessboard. Wanna be Princesses and Princes…getting married at first sight. And a special person, who like President Zelensky, no longer does Suits…but does know how to welcome her guests. #Gogglebox

Late night early morning in hospital. It’s a strange place, with sadness and hope. Tonight has an extra splash of peculiar, with incoming patients dressed in Christmas jumpers and snowflake PJs.
(I’m ok, btw, supporting another).
