What's the word for the specific relief you feel when an artist agrees to illustrate your front cover at very short notice? 😅 And then, of course, @alexandraespan did an incredible job with this piece to go with @jacopobarigazzi 's story on the people who really run the EU 👀

A Brussels-centric front page of @POLITICOEurope this week. @maiadelabaume looks at whether the EU Quarter is dead. And @laurenscerulus casts an eye over the EU-China Friendship Group … 👀 Great illustration by the wonderful @claremallison , who was a delight to work with.

A really proud day for Martin especially, but also for the Isle of Lewis generally. Delighted for Kenny John and Dano and all the folks who put so much time into youth football development down in Back. (Okay, that's enough praise for the Bacachs for at least a decade 😬)

🥳"It's one of these things that won't sink in until you look back on your career. I'm still absolutely buzzing." Martin MacLean's winning goal helped part-time @brorarangers stun Hearts in the Scottish Cup. He's back at work today but joined us earlier to reflect on that win!👇
