I don't know if this is clear, but the left-hand photo is the official flag at the Garden of Remembrance in Crown Close, Bromsgrove. You may know it, James.
Compare and contrast with the Chinese made rag secured with cable ties and already tattered and grimy

Those stay awake meds are kicking in. I'm still listening to his "speech" to the Knesset.
He wasn't allowed to address the UK Parliament during his state visit.
A metaphorical bullet dodged.
Will he ever shut up? No sign yet

Well, this is just Leicestershire, but it doesn't reflect well on the rest of us that Reform are being actively promoted by the media.

Trump has been advised to have a colonoscopy

Is it wrong that I was actually in tears (tiers?) at the end of the Bake Off final? Heartwarming to see all the competitors reuniting as real friends. That's what makes it special.
