@DaeargiCymreig What a beauty! (Both of you.)

The red is back and I’m very excited but being kept inside!

@DaeargiCymreig Lucky you!

Very early in the year to have reds in the garden. A positive sign.

Appalling mistake by @Ryanair. They gave advance notice that the website & app would be down for a few hours starting at 23.00 on 10 March. But the systems went down at 22.00 on 9 March!

@lootplunder @alulapan @EthiopianTrust Do you know where it will be in Ethiopia? And such a shame, there is no gravestone or memorial to her at Chelicott, a great church in a beautiful location.

A beautiful hairpin that belonged to Prince Alemayehu's mother - Empress Tiruwork - is going back to Ethiopia c. 160 years after it was taken by the British military doctor who treated her last illness. Congrats to all involved @alulapan @EthiopianTrust royalethiopiantrust.org/the-return-of-…

@ArtEthiopic Thank you.

The SIZE of the scribe's tools surrounding St Luke the Evangelist! 😲 Ethiopia, 17th c. (?) #luke #evangelist #scribe #africanscribe #sizematters #africanart

@Number10cat Gosh Larry @Number10cat. I think "Sod Off" is a pretty mild response. To me, Remembrance Day is giving thanks to many, many in the armed forces, from not only my own country but also her allies, for what they have done in various conflicts, not only WWII.

The 8th May has been marked as VE Day since before Trump was born. VE stands for Victory in Europe. There is also a VJ Day - Victory over Japan day in August. As for the First World War, the idea that some Yank who refused to serve in the military, will command people around the world not to call it Rembrance Day is laughable. Sod off.
