Tech-minded people please help: BT offering me £50 a month for (around) 20-24Mbps download, Starlink is £35 quid for 100Mbps - is there any reason why this is not a no-brainer?

When I’m old I’m either gonna either keep my mouth shut about things I don’t understand Or ask younger farmers why they are doing things differently and maybe learn a thing or two from them…

I have read about five translations of the Odyssey, maybe six, and all make it completely different and yet I always love it regardless There is magic in those stories

A friend messaged me the other day and said I must go and see this retrospective on Sheila Fell’s work I had planned to go but it gave me the extra push I needed to go to Carlisle

I’m actually going to the Labour Party Conference to speak briefly - a very rare foray in to the murk of politics Will not be at all surprised if that invite is pulled - if it isn’t, it’s gonna be interesting because I’ll be saying exactly what I believe and bluntly

Excited to be welcoming new Head Teachers to our fantastic city this morning. A time of enormous challenge, but equally enormous opportunity. So much we can achieve together for our children and families. Stronger in partnership. Thank you to @PwC_UK for hosting! @Child_Leeds

When did we stop having barometers in our houses? And lucky horse shoes, horse brasses/tacks, and flying ducks. And a pouffet. And a bosson heads, and cuckoo clocks, and silver spoons with crests of seaside towns. And thimbles. And pewter mugs for winning at dominoes or whatever.
