A rare atmospheric marvel appeared in the Carpathians: the Brocken Spectre. When the sun shines from behind and a bank of cloud or fog lies ahead, a person’s shadow is projected onto the mist and ringed with bright, rainbow-like halos.👇

Also, if you're "in bed with flu", it's almost certainly Covid.

After a long pause, I've just done another England Covid & NHS update as we head into the autumn/winter season.

TLDR: we're in a significant Covid wave now, the NHS is stretched, get boosted if you're eligible.

I don't want to attack Mr. Soros. And he doesn't need me to defend him. But let's be frank: He didn't get where he is by making stupid financial decisions.
