‘Slow down. Have fun. Live well.’
A bimonthly magazine helping readers ‘to lead more fulfilled lives’ through idleness. The irony is that making a magazine does not involve even a hint of idleness, but the message remains: slow down and enjoy life!
This is the ‘Wool-themed’ issue for January/February 2026, leading with an article from nature writer and farmer John Lewis-Stempel in defence of sheep. Plus, a tour of new Soho retail space The Light House, founded by Joe Corré—the man behind popular lingerie brand Agent Provocateur.
