Two wrongs make a right?
Standard wisdom is that they don’t, I think. That’s the phrase anyway. A half stern admonishment to a raging child: ‘Two wrongs don’t make a right’. Yet oddly, the theory seems to be behind most of...

How long does it take to feel at home somewhere?
It’s obviously bland to say it depends on the place and it depends on the person. I measure houses in terms of how long it takes me to offer someone a cup of tea in their own house. Once I’m doing...

When you were a child what did you think of other people? Were they OK?
Again, I can’t remember. I’m pretty sure I felt like they must be happier than me, but I’m pretty sure I wasn’t really that sad. It’s the way you look at grown ups, and think that they have everything...
