Tonight’s Light Up Netley was a wonderful community event and it was heartening to see so many people join us on the lantern parade and lighting up the festive lights at the library and at St. Edward’s Church. Thank you to all those who came along to join in the festive spirit!

We can now realise how prescient 2001: A Space Odyssey was, depicting an AI having hallucinations.

Great photo!

I bought a new double breasted suit this week and am delighted to see David Bowie wearing one on #LiveAid thus proving my sense of fashion and cool.

Main observation from watching #LiveAid at forty years in is how young everyone looks.

We are watching #LiveAid. 17 year old daughter is amazed; “this is an actual thing from the 1900s!”

"balmy temperatures might sound attractive, but they can pose hidden threats. Harmful bacteria and algae can often spread more easily in warmer seawater, which isn't treated with cleaning chemicals like yr local pool."
