INTERRUPTED

No, I haven't been observing a day's silence in memory of the David Davis campaign. Deadlines got in the way, there was a school nativity play to attend, and I also had a very late night after the opening of Curtis Stigers' Knightsbridge residency. People think of him as a Nineties pop star, but he long ago re-invented himself as a jazz singer - and a great one too. If you're in striking distance of London in the next week, do your best to catch him. He's the male equivalent of Diana Krall, i.e. classy and commercial, an exceedingly rare combination nowadays.
