Dining with Queen Anne (deceased)?

TBH, I'd never heard of Zevon until your posted that.

Ob. cyling: Astana rider Fabio Aru should always be pronounced "Arooooo, werewolves of London." Trufax.

More cycling: While reading articles in the Spanish press about recent cycling goings-on, where the subjects of crashes, which governing body is to blame, and hospital bulletins all intersect, I learned that the Spanish for intensive care is Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos, or in its abbreviated form, UCI.

On Tuesday I learned the word propinquity, which is obviously related to proximity but I had trouble making sense of in context, which was to do with a trade-off between propinquity and housing density. On Wednesday I mentioned this to someone, who said they didn't really know it but had also just come across it, in a completely different context. Which was quite propinquitous.
