Tim Dowling: was that a ghost – or a small man who knows his tailoring? He certainly knows his suits … In fact he appears to have worked in men’s clothing since the early sixtiesWhen the oldest one was younger, and his birthday came round, I would invariably pretend not to know how old he was, as if the flight of time had overtaken me.“So what are you, 30 now?” I would say.

How can I do more to help my parents when I have a young family of my own? | Ask Annalisa Barbieri It’s easy to feel guilty and ‘useless’ but you have options. Be honest with yourself about what you are able to doA few months ago, my dad went into a care home. The cognitive symptoms of his Parkinson’s were getting worse after 18 years and my mum could no longer look after him at home. The last time my wife and I visited him, I showed Dad some pictures of my son and he just cried in silence. Then we all cried. I knew my parents were getting older, but I am afraid of how much worse it can get. Although important people in my life have died, this feels different.I left my country of birth after university and I feel limited in the ways I can help. My mum has started drinking alone and she can’t sleep without benzodiazepines. Other close family members are the same age or have distanced themselves from her. Continue reading... ...

Gotta lotta bottle: doing the rounds with Britain’s last milkmen – photo essay Their floats were once a regular sight, quietly whirring down the country’s streets, delivering daily pints. Photographer Maxine Beuret captures the vanishing world of electric milk floats (and their drivers)You often hear them before you see them: the unmistakable clink and tinkle of glass bottles in crates, and the low whine of the electric motor. Milk floats are a uniquely British sight, and an increasingly rare one, which is why the British photographer and cultural historian Maxine Beuret has spent 20 years documenting their use by dairies across England, as part of her project Two Pints Please.Beuret, who calls herself a historian of the commonplace, has documented several quirks of British culture that are at risk of disappearing (or have since gone), including slam-door commuter trains, TfL’s Routemaster buses before they were decommissioned, and traditional shops in the Midlands including a sweet shop, a men’s outfitters and a hardware store. She first photographed an electric milk float while undertaking another project called Familiar Interiors of Leicester – her hometown – in 2005. As well as creating a record of the library, the hospital, the pub and other cherished places, she visited the local dairy, Kirby & West, and “instantly fell in love” with the milk floats, she says. “I loved the compact, functional design, clean lines, and fragile sense of history they carried with them.”Overlooking the yard at Parker Dairies Continue reading... ...

Yotam Ottolenghi’s recipe for spiced plum and marzipan tart A tart alternative to traditional Christmas puddingPudding at Christmas doesn’t actually need to be Christmas pudding. It feels right, though, to pinch or borrow from the best bits of other festive fare. The marzipan, orange and spices from the Christmas cake; the redcurrant jelly from the roast; the sherry from whoever’s cracking on. This is my kind of dessert: alternative but traditional at the same time. Continue reading... ...
