@alps2018 I hope that price included the Cello My wife got hers as a hand down from her mother. It was just used as a second runaround car. They were functional but a bit of an ugly duckling on the road. 🚗. Believe me Jo, we traded it in pretty sharpish for a smart electric blue mini. 🚙

@DavidCharnock5 And here's the price, David!

Motor magazine 6th Feb 1966.

@alps2018 Two of the extracts quote prices in guineas. Lovely. Shamed to admit that we had an Austin A40 in the family - and yes it was red just like the photo. 😱

@arthistorynews Based on this portrait by Dobson - then Alec Guinness did an amazing job or portraying King Charles I in the film Cromwell.

Charles I executed OTD in 1649. A sting in the tail of Henry VIII’s decision to make English monarchs head of the Church of England. (Pic by William Dobson, Royal Collection)

@stilIwalking Just glorious. He always said he was a ‘hoofer’ at heart.

@HistoryArcs Shows London pretty much devoid of children. Presume most evacuated from the Capital by that time.

@LeoR2004 @Resist_CBDC 😂😂

@DavidCharnock5 @Resist_CBDC 😂 pre thirty Costco chocolate fudge cakes and 6 pints of double cream.

This guy is installing a system to control your ability to even buy food. Do you even know his name?

@chilternrailway @SBarrettBar What do you mean ‘Reach Out to us’. If you mean ‘contact us’ then say so, instead of this mealy-mouth, touchy-feely crap. This gentleman is clearly distressed & you expect him to fill in a webform. This is a disgraceful response & you warrant every repercussion coming your way.

@SBarrettBar Hi Steven, we are very concerned to see this. Please reach out to us through our webform so that we can gather further details and address this internally. You can contact us via (support.chilternrailways.co.uk/hc/en-gb/reque…) ^LEX

I have just been physically assaulted by @chilternrailway staff Please retweet I am bleeding

@joeflanagan1 One of my favourite shops in London with such helpful staff. My brolly is still in perfect shape & condition after 20 yrs use. Love it.🌂

Original Victorian umbrella shop New Oxford St Holburn, I wonder if it still sells sword canes

@HistoricEngland A great pub in Liverpool. Worthy of its Grade 1 status. Long may it pour ( pints) 🍻

Are these the most lavish loos in England? 🤩 Built in 1898, the Grade I listed Philharmonic Dining Rooms has outstanding features, from wood-panelled walls to beautiful stained glass windows. However, visitors often stop in to look at one room in particular. 🚽

@alps2018 Ive not seen the iPlayer stuff Jo, I’ll check it out. A potential treat for me over Xmas. I’ve seen several on YouTube & also have an old DVD but I recall watching his shows on tv ages ago. Like Liberace- a very skilled pianist, who was never overprecious or too serious about it

@DavidCharnock5 I like him...great, dry sense of humour. Did you see his shows on BBC iPlayer? Wonderful.

@alps2018 I’m more of a Victor Borge man myself 😊

@DavidCharnock5 Wonderful, isn't it!! Yes, I loved Liberace & his perma smile. Your mother had good taste.

@4golfonline People stopping to take that ‘important phone call’ on their mobile. 🤦‍♂️

WHAT CAUSES SLOW PLAY? What have I missed and what do you not agree with? 1. Busy Courses 2. Tee Times TOo Close 3. Taking Too many Practice Swings 4. Playing Too Fast 5. Trying to go through 6. Leaving bags in the wrong place 7. Doing the score card on the green 8. Chatting and not hitting 9. Filming for socail media 10. PLAYING TOO FAST

@Jenny_1884 Succinctly put and 100% agree with you .👏

Once you have bought & paid for your home it is yours & you own it outright. No government should be taking a single penny of it when you die as it’s yours to gift to whoever you want. You’ve paid taxes in order to own it so you’ve already paid your dues.

@NiallHarbison Brilliant to see this. Well done to you for your kindness and dedication. 👏

He had brain damage and was told he had to be put to sleep. Today I took Stormzy to run on the beach. I promise this will set you up for the weekend ❤️

@VinnieSull1van @BygoneBritain Loved this. Clearly Mr Friar had great skill and attention to detail. Wonder where his ships are now.

1950s England, where the common man engaged in the type of impressive, quaint hobbies that made the country something to be proud of.

@Itoldyouitwasso @LeftRig57257476 Yes - if I lived next door to this chap - I’d definitely move.

@LeftRig57257476 I’m not a fan but it is way better than the most annoying advert, ever, in the history of the universe! This chaps face and the song really annoy me for some reason

Anyone else find this Ad Annoying?

@JonathanFoyle @HENI An astonishing architectural gem. Great filming and commentary. Really enjoyed the experience thanks. 👍

@morningad Hopefully if Star Pub Co are successful in finding a new tenant then the ‘thousands’ who signed the petition will actually start visiting and patronising the pub thereby creating a viable business. Use it or lose it has to be the name of the game.

Thousands sign petition to save 300-year-old city pub The Black Horse in Chipping Barnet, which is thought to date back to 1720, closed its doors in September after the leaseholder left the business. morningadvertiser.co.uk/Article/2025/1… #BlackHorsePub
