A few loving words about Madness and one song in particular.
“With Madness that felt important because you know how desperately a certain sort of pink-faced, St. George's flag-waving Reformer would love to embrace them as one of their own.”  | Pete Paphides

OTD in 1994 Russia signed the Budapest memo, guaranteeing Ukraine's territorial integrity in exchange for their nukes, 44 Ukrainian Tu-22 heavy bombers and 1,068 Kh-55 cruise missiles.

Which have been fired at Ukraine in this war.

I shared this photo a week or so ago on Mani’s birthday
- It never failed to bring a smile to my face - and that was exactly the same for the man himself.

One of the absolute best in every way - such a beautiful friend

Love you Mani x x

The correct use of a handbag as a political statement.
Maria Steen wasn't happy that some of her more vocal online support came from circles also protecting the wimminanchildrin.

News from Finland. A 9-year-old lost an especially good stick he’d had since he was 2. He hung up 20 posters. A few days later it was returned. It had been found by a 2-year-old, who wanted to keep it for herself, but her mother made her return it. She got toys, flowers and candy as a reward.
