My Tadcu, Taliesin Mordecai (the one in the middle). He was an instructor at the Central Flying School 1917-18. I assume this was a landing by a pupil (but probably not the future George VI, who he is believed to have taught)

Just got an email from Refuck
They left out a few details, so I added them, just to be clear and transparent.

Historical fact: If the price of a stamp had increased in line with inflation since 1840, it would now be about 65p. And in towns that would get same-day delivery.
The decline accelerated when they stopped printing the price on 1st and 2nd class. Actually, no, when they introduced 2nd class!

Try and persuade them to go back to dishing out Guinness (or Mackeson) instead of tea. Or maybe a pint of Granny R's Extra Fine Select Mercian Turnip Gin.

I think Monday is a day to stay in my hovel in my pile of straw, with a couple of bottles of the deluxe extra aged Granny's Reserve, and let the happy, smiling orphans work in the turnip fields unsupervised. Hope the thatch doesn't leak too much.

Don't worry, it's not due until Christmas Eve. That's still weeks away. And you can keep it simple

I've already had my Christmas Cat.
Tim-tim, the feral who's been coming in for food since May now jumps up on my bed for a lengthy wash after supper, often sleeps in the house, and lets me tickle her head and shoulder blades. I think she's decided where her new home is.

Maybe as an alternative? Only £9.99. And I believe matching tails are available.

Farage is getting f*cking desperate.
How about a 'Collectors Edition' £350 BLACK (sorry @johnnynicepainter.bsky.social ) footie shirt?
This is just wrong on so many levels. And I can only think of one sort of person who collects this sort of memorabilia

Zonal pricing is the obvious solution, but that doesn't mean that prices would go down for *everyone* - just for those in areas with lots of renewables. And they'd rocket in the South! And if lower prices encouraged more usage, then you have a risk that your renewable capacity is insufficient!

Unfortunately, the only people who can impeach him are all HIS puppets. Is there a special term of abuse for a puppet's puppet? And do they have puppets of their own? I'm sure they do.

I'm getting messages through the temporal anomaly that I just don't understand. Just had this one (ignore the spelling, it's from far Cathay). They're suggesting I buy a secret Yule gift. What do they sell? e-bikes, currently discounted to £1000 (60k groats). Office Secret Santa is getting pricey!

Could @meadhallwench.bsky.social consider some marketing to increase custom in the Mead Hall in the run-up to Yule? Something like this excellent* example I just saw
* the card certainly helps serfs to be 'drink aware'. "Was that my 7th or 8th pint? Hang on, I'll check my card. Two more to go!"
