An absolute loon!
Despite what you hear from fossil fuel-funded politicians, the U.K has just generated a record amount of clean, domestic wind energy.
Enough to power 23 million homes!
U.K decarbonisation policy is a recipe for energy security.

I see Tescos and Xmas has been replaced by Trafalgar square Xmas tree with the Christmas police.
Taking bets on what’s next?
Love most sports but the Villa v arsenal game - last minute winner at villa park - shows why for me the prem league is the best aport to watch about. Top speed, end to end, fantastic atmosphere.
Few others compete with the full package.

The Corps Commander, therefore, directs Divisional Commanders to impress on all subordinate Commanders the absolute necessity of encouraging the offensive spirit of the troops, while on the defensive, by every means in their power. Friendly intercourse with the enemy, unofficial armistices (e.g. "we won’t fire if you don’t" etc), and the exchange of tobacco and other comforts, however tempting and occasionally amusing they may be, are absolutely prohibited. Orders by General Smith-Dorrien in II Corps memorandum G.507, 5 December 1914, (UK National Archives WO 95/1560).
#OTD December 5, 1914, General Smith-Dorrien forbade his troops from 'friendly intercourse with the enemy', but many were to disobey his order on Christmas Day...

But frankly this was fantastic. Beat Xmas show I think @sherman theatre have produced.
If you want to support local theatre, start a family tradition, (or leave the family at home even 😉) there are far worse ways to spend a few hours.
