Netanyahu has not allowed outside journalists independent access to Gaza since it launched the war. The rest of the world has to rely on Palestinian journalists and 170 of them have been targeted and killed.

Good idea. I know lots of people don’t use FB. I only use it for local roadworks, missing cats and I had an Amazon parcel go missing which the wrong recipient kindly posted on our local noticeboard. A friend saw the post and contacted me.

Sourdough has less sugar. I get very cross because I need gluten free and all bakery products are stuffed with sugar and additives.

It looks good. I don’t think that product is gluten free but I use their mince, which is. I don’t eat meat nowadays.

I loathe artificial light. I refuse to have overhead light in winter. A lamp and candles. Even use a torch rather than put a light on.
