Joy klaxon: beautiful to watch
Around a million Syrians have returned since the fall of the Assad regime in December 2024.
And every day at Damascus airport, families separated by years of war and dictatorship, are finally being reunited.

Ann Lowe was the Black genius behind Jackie Kennedy’s iconic wedding gown.
Before the fashion world was ready to credit a Black woman’s talent, Lowe was already designing for America’s most powerful families. Brilliant. Bold. Innovative. Undervalued. And nearly erased from history.

What’s the name of that great, annual run down of all the weird places folk sleep when they visit their family over the holidays? I look forward to it every year - hilarious!

Caught a tv clip featuring an ink maker called Sylak Ravenspine and I feel like he deserves a fantasy adventure novel all to himself for the name alone.

How come the things the public don’t know about SNP are good things and the things they don’t know about the Unionist Parties are bad things? Eg SNP rely on Members subs whilst Labour takes corporate donations and Reform has 3 major funders per Peter Geoghegan’s excellent report on party funding. 🏴

Farage:
1. I never said those things.
2. Alright, I may have said them, but not with intent.
3. Fine, there was intent, but it was ages ago, ancient history.
4. Look, everyone talked like that back then.
5. It was taken out of context.
6. Why bring this up now, when I’m busy being “important”?

Gone a bit rustic this year in my wreath making.
In fact, just generally speaking I’ve gone a bit rustic. Some days I can give Worzel Gummidge a run for his money.
