@DarrenJohnson66 You should definitely plan to donate your fine work to a museum or archive. Probably within the category of folk art, which this now is, fine as it is.

Being a bit of an odd, geeky sort of kid this is the model of Coronation Street I built out of matchsticks when I was 12. It was up in my mum's loft for decades but I rescued it a while back to go on display in my lounge. 47 years later, it's still going strong.

Wow, in less than 24 hours, we reached over 10,000 signatures - thank you ❤️ We need 100,000 for the matter to be considered for debate in Parliament. This could make a huge difference for the UK ceramics industry. Please help by signing & sharing: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/7647…

I want to express my gratitude and admiration to @KateBMwriting and all the staff and volunteers, including the wonderful security team, who made today’s @AllianceLGB conference a triumph. We had amazing speakers - some of whom had come from as far afield as Singapore, California, Taiwan and Colombia. We had dozens of young people from the UK and around the world with the energy and determination to fight for LGB rights. I am in awe of all of them. The sexist, homophobic gender identity cult is still strong - but we shall overcome! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 #LetsGoBig2026

@JournalistJill She's having her 15 minutes. Then watch her monetise, and weaponise acquired victim status by proxy as a QED.

Wow. Just f*****g wow. Alastair Campbell's daughter Grace had very different views on women-only spaces only three years ago. ⬇️⬇️

@JournalistJill @PaulEmbery The most surprising thing I have learned about her today is that, back in 2023, she was extolling the virtues of going to an all girls school which "made (her) feel more comfortable" and claiming that "women love my stand up". How things have changed!

After he won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1957, Albert Camus wrote a letter of thanks to his favorite childhood teacher, whom he'd never forgotten. It's beautiful.

@BlackIslePMD That is marvellous. Harris tweed, tartan trews, the boots. Perfection. X

@QcWynter Partner still very much regrets the circumstances of the imbibing. Fortunately he had an appreciative friend present. Though they both tackled it when insufficiently in an analytic state. [I was away for work at the time.]

@NarthexJones 1999 Domaine Romanée-Conti Romanée-Conti, as supplied by a wealthy and extremely generous friend. I doubt I shall ever taste a DRC Romanée Conti again as I must rely on wealthy and generous friends to bring me to them or them to me.

More on the Nero d'Avola. I usually find Nero d'Avolas pleasantly"jammy" but this Aldi one drinks more like a pinot noir. I do like it and bought it because I have never had a bad or undrinkable Nero d'Avola.
Colin Wynter KC@QcWynter

As I open a bottle of Aldi's Nero d'Avola, my phone pings with a photo memory of me clutching a bottle of Penfold's Grange 1994(?). Some might say "highs & lows" but I don't see it like that. Every bottle of wine is at least interesting & at £8 vs £450, the Aldi comes out OK.

@BlackIslePMD My thought for the poor women - smartly tailored tartan trews plus stylish hiking style boots.

@BlackIslePMD Plus what female athlete would agree to teeter around a stadium for hours in tight stilettos giving horrible constriction to her feet ahead of having to RUN etc?

@Baroness_Nichol All the doughty women, like Jennifer, Sandie Peggie, and the Darlington nurses, and supporters, deserve our utmost respect and appreciation. But we taxpayers who fund NHS all paying the price for chronic mismanagement.

@CurlyKing79 It's a hallowed item. I missed Easter en famille once as on a course. By the time I returned home just before the new term - Dad had found my egg, and demolished it.

I bought both sons an easter egg each. Eldest dutifully ate his immediately because he can't own chocolate. Youngest couldn't get time off work to come home, so his egg is just sitting there in my kitchen. I'm struggling. 😫

@Gaynotqueer1 I will continue to point out the ultra wide spectacles that they all deploy, to try to diminish male cranium width.
