Striking photo. Looks like Farage has just said they’ll honeymoon in Southend.

Superb?
Feeling very much like I'm "To the Manor Born" at a #Christmas party yesterday. Bring on the champagne 🍾🥂
Excellent weekend including a visit to Round Chimney's Farm near Howell for their Lambing Event and Woolly Workshops hosted by Millie at The Slipped Stitch. The farm's café is excellent as is their home-bred Aberdeen Angus beef.

The contempt that university managers have for their academic staff here in the UK is *off the scale*.
A warm festive stocking of Yuletide nostalgia, with a little "Bah, Humbug," this Christmas on #TPTV The nation's favourite channel with #TommyCooper #DavidNixon #ManFromUncle #DameEdna #Scrooge and so much more!
Lovely. My favourite of your shirts. As for the trousers, we are now totally normalised to them.

The ultimate paradox in action there I think.
Thank you @georgewalkley.com for this, but surely it's not just novelists who should be concerned. Writers in all disciplines will almost certainly be impacted by AI, if not now then in the future.
I am a writer of History non-fiction and pretty sure I'm not alone in being concerned.
I seem to have acquired almost 50 new followers this week. Welcome everyone. I'll give you a book recommendation for the weekend. It's Tim Bouverie's Allies at War & it's won a place as one of my top 5 books of 2025. As stunning an account of the diplomatic history of #WW2 as you could ask for.

Living with trauma, whatever form it takes,is a daily battle for many. The work of this Charity offers empathy and hope to those who may be in crisis. Their website is one of the best I've seen on this important matter, offering advice not only to the traumatised, but those friends who wish to help.
Umm... really?
La dolce Vita.
I'm guessing that's Warsaw.
The seminal book on this, if anyone is interested, is The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk.
I await the programme with interest.
