Not sure how old this plastic bag is but Gateway supermarkets have been around since the 1960s. In 1990 they began to be rebranded as Somerfield. Exposed by shifting sands and found during one of our recent beach cleans.

Every now and again you come across a priest that seems to be rather reasonable. But then again, if he was really that reasonable, would he become a priest in the first place?

For comparison, the car park at the hospital we visit frequently here, in France, isn't free. But as patients we get a special ticket and the fee is a flat 1.80€ per day.

Notes from Poland

One of the leaders of the mass protests against Poland's near-total abortion ban has been denied security clearance, meaning she cannot continue serving on a government commission investigating surveillance of civil society groups, including her own, under the former PiS administration.

Counterpoint: 50 year old people need to stop pretending they haven't noticed how old they are. Just do an ache check in the morning, for crying out loud. Chances are you actually did cry out loud, when you got up.

It takes 225 million years or so for the Solar System to make one orbit around the galaxy. Sharks evolved long enough ago that they’ve done it twice.

Today we remember the
#Holodomor
where millions of Ukrainians were starved by Stalin’s regime. It’s heartbreaking that, generations later, Ukraine is once again fighting for survival in the face of Russian aggression. Their grief echoes across time. We remember. We mourn. We stand in solidarity.

В проекте американского мирного плана для Украины обнаружили выражения, характерные для русского языка, что усилило подозрения о прямом влиянии Кремля на содержание документа.

1/ What a Russian breaking of the ceasefire will look like, step by step. There are far better experts on this, but I was an Australian diplomat in Ukraine in 2014 so I've seen this play out up close. So join me, brothers and sisters, as we count down to a fullscale re-invasion.
