The globetrotting little Opinel knife

Picasso used it in his workshop, Ellen MacArthur and Eric Tabarly took it out to sea: from a blacksmith's forge in France's Savoie region, the simple Opinel knife has come a long way. Today Opinel is a household name and style icon, with its own entry in the main French dictionary and New York's Museum of Modern Art catalogue. Each year, from a single factory in Chambery, three million of the knives...

No soft centre to British racing's new golden girl

The new golden girl of British and European ocean racing abandons her partner and her cats and leaves her adopted French shores with another Frenchman today. With the departure of Dame Ellen MacArthur from the scene which catapulted her to fame, Sam Davies seems set to inherit the mantle of international fame. She is the complete package: bright, attractive, articulate and friendly. And she can sail....

Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs, Dame Ellen, who broke the speed record for solo circumnavigation of the globe in 2005, said a trip to the Atlantic island of South Georgia had made her acutely aware of the challenges...

By example

British public refuse to fly less to reduce their carbon footprint In many ways the headline is a perfect encapsulation of what I see as a significant issue. 'The British public...' is an odd bunch. A 'them' that another 'us' seem to see as not cooperating despite near daily nags from those who somehow still don't find it ironic to be constantly climbing aboard (usually to wallow in the front) of aircraft...

The More the Merrier

I enjoyed hearing Ellen MacArthur talk about her childhood on Desert Island Discs this morning. As the interviewer said, as a compliment, it sounded more like a 1930s childhood than a modern one. MacArthur also said that: “This world, that I thought as a child was the biggest, most adventurous place you could imagine, is not that big. And there’s an awful lot of us on it. And we’re...
