Retired home to Brighton and Hove. Love #BHAFC, Saxophone, local history…and walking. I spent 40 years working in social work/education/counselling. Thinker and talker….new allotment owner!

Went to a really good talk this evening by Roger Morgan-Grenville at #EastGrinstead Bookshop. Lots of what he said resonates with my experience so I'm looking forward to reading the book #RestlessCoast

Katherine Johnson, NASA Legend 1918 - 2020 It's a cartoon of her chalking mathematical equations on a blackboard that turns into an astronaut walking up the "steps" to reach the Moon, meaning that he wouldn't have gotten there without her.

Sad that Angela Rayner has gone, but think she did it exactly right; refer herself, then resign rather than be sacked. Very much hope she can come back one day, we need more people like her in politics. I believe she made a mistake dealing with a complex system.
