1908 - Gerhard Lang, a printer from Munich who is often credited with creating the first printed Advent calendar.
My art post day, a little late as it should have been on the 1st December is the advent calendar, which is now part of our Christmas tradition.

"President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Monday that Ukraine would not budge from its longstanding opposition to handing over land to Russia". Trump can bully, Putin can demand but Zelenskyy and Europe stand firm, there is no deal.

The Daily Mail making up stuff as usual. The new lie restaurant portions, normal portions are still the first option for everyone, but Labour suggest if we wish to eat smaller portions they be offered. I often opt to eat less or don't finish my meal, I would rather pay less in the first place.

John Constable - A winterlandscape with figures on the path
In the fall of 1832, Constable painted this remarkable copy of a winter landscape by Jacob van Ruisdael, he added subtle differences to distinguish it, including adding a small dog in the lower left corner.

I'm about to be controversial, whilst I believe in the jury system, having been a part of it with other family members, I see problems with it and I do believe changes are required. Fraud trials in particular are usually long and complex for jurors, who often don't follow the evidence.

Lindisfarne Gospels
This post includes my favourite selection, art, history and the written word. An inscription relays information about the book’s formation, it informs us that Eadfrith, a bishop of Lindisfarne in 698 who died in 721, created the manuscript to honor God and St. Cuthbert.

The con that is Reform. The voters voted for Pidcock who won the Hunstanton seat, one of them to work for them, it was another Reform lie. The truth he ran an international offshore oil service company before retiring, like Farage wealthy establishment looking after their own interests.
