If you are watching The Box Of Delights weekly, like in 1984, you've already missed the first episode
'When the Wolves Were Running', the first episode of The Box of Delights, was originally broadcast on this day in 1984.

Every campaigining organisation, whether Your Party or the Menopause Society, ends up being riven by clashing personalities. It's almost like people who want to lead are unsuited to being leaders.
Plus this wouldn't have happened without the evangelistic zeal, and lately, the companies cashing in.

These days, you get arrested and thrown in jail, just for having the word Christmas in the title of your Maths activity, these days
Ok, the title is cute. But. Challenge: Can you make an alternate cute title that references winter or solstice instead of xmas?

“And the best way to do that is to immediately have 2 leaders who don’t talk to each other, and set up separate membership lists“
“At an early meeting to set the path for Your Party, participants quickly agreed on one thing: given cliches about leftwingers forever falling out, at all costs they must avoid a descent into factionalism.” Great read @peterwalker99.bsky.social

A reminder that you can buy a first class upgrade on a train into a London terminus for as little as £5, and in many cases the guard either doesn’t check or just lets you off. Check out your local train operating company’s deal.

Oh look, Maths teachers, it’s our fault that people choose to put money into cash ISAs rather than pay massive fees to St James‘s Place

Worse than Whamageddon and Harkageddon which don't start until Monday, I've just seen my first Telegraph news story about this year's Princess of Wales Carol Service. Apparently it will feature some sea shanty singers. FML.
