I'm unique, as is everyone I meet, so everyone is special 🥰
I like tea, cats, and listening to the radio.
Refound the joy of reading.
Fascinated by history, & nature.
Care about the environment, and wished the world could be a kinder place 💝

Does having 7 typewriters make me a collector, or just someone who likes typewriters?
My oldest is a Underwood Standard Four Bank portable typewriter from the 1920s.

In Animal Crossing New Horizons how do you get back to being a normal colour, after being pranked at Halloween?
Or do you just have to wait?

This sort of thing pings me off, the 60 plus pass isn't free travel, it is subsidized, as one has to pay, a very reduced cost every year, I admit. This is different to free.

World Club Challenge returns with Hull KR v Brisbane Broncos in 2026
The World Club Challenge will return to being played when Super League champions Hull KR host NRL title holders Brisbane Broncos on 19 February next year. The match did not take place in 2025 because the Penrith Panthers could not agree a date to play Wigan Warriors. Hull KR, whose Craven Park home holds 11,000 fans, have said the game against the Broncos will take place at Hull FC's 25,000-capacity MKM Stadium to "allow as many fans be there to see it unfold live".

Seventy-five years ago, Britain helped write the European Convention on Human Rights. It protects fairness, liberty and the rule of law. Those attacking it now are not defending Britain. They are trying to free government from accountability. We must defend it.

People like Robert Jenrick and Nigel Farage are increasingly looking at people who are not white and suggesting that they can't be British.
That in itself is fundamentally un-British.

The UN has confirmed what we already knew: Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians.
Only last week our government were denying this reality and continue to sell arms to Netanyahu's genocidal regime.
They must wake up and act now to end the genocide.

While the Home Office wastes resources arresting people peacefully opposing genocide, the rise of the far right, fuelled by racist agitators and foreign billionaires whipping up hatred in our communities, continues unchecked.
