The pomp and ceremony at town and city remembrance services are one thing, but small village events can be even more poignant. No standards. A roll call of family names. Three dogs howling along to The Last Post.

Well, one thing is we won’t be able to watch BBC News…
This article paraphrases the opening statement from Threads.
It says: We live in a complex, electrically powered world - but the more connected everything becomes the more catastrophic it is when that fails.

I am currently in a pub where some holiday makers have absolutely no volume control… are they like this in their local at home?

If it was up to me, anything Christmas related would be banned until November 12th. I feel remembrance is being overwhelmed by Christmas advertising.

Incredibly sad news this evening. For me, his Macbeth was magnificent. His Picard was a triumph. Rest in peace, Sir Patrick.

I have ADHD. I’d rather the 1/3 off rail travel I can claim goes on improving the service so I’m not overthinking the bloody new route I have to take when the train is cancelled.

And yet local programming from the BBC and commercial outlets have been decimated. Forget anything but national messaging… if you’re lucky.

No one has said “Austen Powers” with regards to the storm. Still time @peter_levy @Hudsonweather !

Whenever I had a Friday off, dad would visit. Pub, then fish and chips. Went for fish and chips in his memory today. He’s probably shouting at me for not having the pint. Miss you dad.

This is going to get interesting when our local media start reporting on it.
Reform mayor under police investigation for alleged cyberflashing
Luke Campbell, an Olympic gold medallist boxer and rising star in Nigel Farage’s party, is accused of showing naked pictures of himself to female colleague

Brilliant episode of Ade and Sam go birding around Flamborough, Brid and Bempton. I adore being from and living here. @exitthelemming getting excited about tree sparrows was fab. We’re currently watching the big migrations over the headland.

Flu jab today. Had to go private as work scheme has been delayed. Flu cases are growing very quickly already. Go early.
