You know the Pope couplet responded to by Squire:
Nature and nature’s laws lay hid in night
God said, Let Newton be! and all was light.
It did not last: the Devil howling “Ho!
Let Einstein be!” restoring the status quo.

Traffic was so rare we would throw water on the road in the evening so that the frost would give us a skating rink the next morning.

You remind me that when one of my children was very young and had nightmares. I comforted him saying “It’s alright. There’s nobody here”. He got more frightened and replied “If there’s nobody here then who’se talking to me”.

Would love you to do a podcast on this. Looked up the book but way too expensive for a retired teacher to buy.

Fantastic. I am so old that I remember when the prevailing view was we would never detect neutrinos directly. I feel like “Nunc dimittis servum tuum Domine…”

Does ‘woke’ just mean anybody whi disagreed with right wing opinions? This is a genuine question. I don’t understand what people mean by ‘woke’. I am a Christian and as far as I can see to be ‘woke’ simply means to take Jesus seriously. Am I wrong?

Have you come upon ‘The Chronicles of Prydain’ by Lloyd Alexander. The first book, The Book of Three, was published in 1964. A marvellous high fantasy series for children to young adults but I devoured it as a full adult when my nephews begged me to read it.
