I had to go out for a routine blood test and a bit of shopping earlier. Our weather this November has been a bit bi-polar. Today it's +14C. At the start of November it hit nearly +15C. Yet, on November 21st it went down to -6.2C. Quite remarkable. 😱

So yesterday I went to my first carers meeting. I was a bit late and arrived to find a group of around 12 to 15 women making Christmas wreaths.

I had some good conversations and will be going back in January. 😊

Bloody well said. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

We owe Ukraine so much. Kasparov is right. Russia wants to reassemble the USSR. Poland, Moldova and the Baltic nations are all vulnerable.

Look at Russia's track record towards Europe and beyond... 👇🏻

Sláva Ukrayínii! Heroiam Sláva!

A line has to be drawn in the sand. Russia has historically used violence to get whatever it wants.

This time it has to be made to fail.

Europe + allies (Canada, Japan, Australia) have to force Russia's failure.

We can't rely on a compromised United States of America any more.

And that's because sections of that "US" peace plan were found to be translated from the original Russian. 🙄 Here's Sir Bill Browder on Times Radio recently.

... I decided that my feed would follow the same idea. I wanted to inform, educate and entertain people who follow me. At the peak, I had 28,000+ followers including Hugh Grant! 😁

Anyway, my idea remains the same here today.

Thanks for following me. 🤗 2/2 #RejoinEU #SlavaUkraini #DumpTrump

When I was a young teenager, I remember getting a radio cassette recorder that had six Short Wave radio bands. I used to listen to all sorts of English speaking international radio.

I also loved the BBC and their remit to inform, educate and entertain.

So, when I joined Twitter in 2016... 1/2
