It still doesn't quite feel real, but I've now published *four* books about #dcfc! These are my telling of the Rams' history from 2010 - 2024.
A lot happened in those 14 years.
I'm not planning another one for a while, but who knows...

I've been sent the text of an email sent by a Reform councillor to a constituent, who was abused after objecting to flags being put up outside their house. These people have absolutely no understanding of, or interest in, the basic principles of public life.

Any ornithologists out there fancy identifying this prey item, which was dropped onto the Hawthorns pitch by a raptor and stopped the game between West Brom and Derby County? I think Woodpigeon, but happy to be corrected...

My son (and the whole family) had a superb experience at the opening of a moth trap at Beacon Hill last week. Experiences like this are so important to encourage his love of nature. Thank you

Fantastic spot, Sunder! I was tinkering around with some GE data recently, and you're absolutely right. There aren't too many Tory walkovers available anymore...

I have finally deactivated my personal 'X' account. This story on the BBC website today was the final straw and it feels great to have done it.
I loved Twitter, but it is dead and gone.

A superb surprise found today at my wife's allotment - an Elephant Hawk-moth caterpillar, which a neighbouring allotmenteer picked up near her fuschias. What a whopper!
