I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to

Gorgeous pink almond flowers against a turquoise sky with scudding clouds.

Ah! The almond blossom! One of the first trees to flower. This one is by the Thames in Rotherhithe at Surrey Docks Farm. Please support this special place to stay open. They need our help now: Surrey Docks Farm - Online Social Fundraising Donation Platform | Givey share.google/mJRInQlLulkx...

Nice!

Right, a bit niche, so feel free to scroll on if this is too dull for you, but my quest was to find Birkenhead post boxes from different eras.

* 2 x Victorian, Ashville Rd & Balls Rd
* Edward VII, Mallaby St
* Edward VIII, Buccleugh St (rare)

(Georges V & VI in following post)

These are great spots. Top left is a Penfold (think of Dangermouse). Top rught is a fluted Victorian postbox. These are relatively rare and I don't think I knew that there was one in Birkenhead. Bottom right is the rare EVIIIR that you mentioned the other day.

Hi, yes GR is George V.

The grape hyacinths have suddenly appeared in our front garden in Camberwell.

A tasty treat for tea

Cauliflower, bacon and…
Custard….

Excellent. We have tickets for later in the year.

Book review of my friend Fr Jonathan Ewer SSM's memoirs.

In order to understand UK politics in 2026 you must realise that a plumber & plasterer doesn't represent the interests of the working class because she is left-wing but a wealthy broadcaster & former academic does represent the interests of the working class because he is right-wing. Hope this helps

Happy birthday Dudley.

Dydd Gŵyl Dewi Hapus! Happy St David’s Day!

In celebration of the feast day of the patron saint of Wales, please enjoy these photos of daffodils outside and inside some of our churches in Wales.

Yes, indeed. I didn't realise there was one in Birkenhead. I will try and find it next time I am in Liverpool.
