What’s the ideal start to a Sunday? Gentle start or a jolt?

Oh, Secret City (I know I’m 6 years behind with that) and Muster Dogs.
A glass of something you’d recommend?
Collector Tiger Tiger (extraordinary and local Chardonnay).
What’s that you’re singing in the shower?
Too embarrassing to say. Oh alright Alive cover by George Alice, Cloudy Day Tones & I, Beauty in the World
Soundtrack of your choice?
Whatever movie my son has just watched – currently Encanto !
