Christmas, beer and pagan cheer

Looking back at 2020 and the collapse of the high street, Delulu as a way of life for Generation Z, and the benefits of talking to strangers

500 year old ships, Christmas Markets, Thanksgiving, Caterpillar Soup and a pyramid dismantled.

As well as an extended look back over the last week on a personal and global front, my take on the end of a 42 year NHS career.

As well as an analysis of the news, three features and a wonderful layout from Diana Ross

An in depth look at the news with a lonely sheep, Donald Trump, and Israel / Gaza; plus a conversation on three greats of British writing, Johnson, McCauley and Shakespeare. Oh and a bit of Madonna.

Israel / Gaza; Oops there goes another icon; this year's love letter to London; AI standup and more.

Who is really running the world and are conspiracy theorists just part of their plan? Is Iris from Morpeth right or does Wes Anderson have the answer?

The Loch Ne=ss Monster, Graduation day(s) and getting bolder as you grow older

A stream of consciousness view of the week and the latest on.

the forthcoming apocalypse
