    • 2024 July 22, Antone Martinho-Truswell, Take a seat: the long table is an antidote to loneliness[1]:
      Some people who go to trendy cafés lament getting stuck at the long central table that has to be shared, instead hoping they get a ‘private’ table. But that is foolish. On a recent trip to see family, I got stuck at the big table in a café, too; I ended up making a new friend there and learning about the surrounding town.
