Latest cd-related escapade saw me spend a nice couple of hours wandering the charity shops today. One shop had a total of 10 classical CDs of which 6 - SIX - were recordings of Carmina Burana. Thereby hangs a tale I am sure.

Enjoying rediscovering my CDs now my player is repaired. Some are lost I think đ¤ˇđ˝ââď¸. Many have price stickers on and gosh we paid what feels like a lot for them in those days. I did find THIS though which I sang on!!

A striking, clarifying fact not noted here is that, per Reuters yesterday, all but 3 of the 6069 refugees admitted to the US under Trump have been white South Africans. Trump isn't focused on whether immigrants are "legal" but whether they're white.

Got my cd player component fixed at a tiny shop on the high street. He also threw in a record player. Got the unit for my 21st birthday! The joy of popping in a 30-year-old cd and it sounding clear as a bell â¤ď¸

Working class British taxpayers paid for this compensation to enslavers, and so abolition became a moment of redistribution of wealth to the propertied class.

Itâs World Ovarian Cancer Day today, so please forgive me banging on even more than usual. The most important thing is how vague and tricky the symptoms are - but that once you know, tests can be quite straightforward. Hereâs a good place to start:

The sooner ovarian cancer is detected, the easier it is to treat. Find out how to recognise the symptoms.

Friends, if youâre taking sertraline, check the batch number as there is a recall out and you may have ended up with a mislabelled lower dose of citalopram.

i am a pretty basic straight man so i do get things wrong when it comes to feminism and listening to women generally, like a lot of men do, but this concerted effort to make women seem like they're too angry over nothing when there are clear and present dangers all over society is just insane really

strange these op-eds about women being too angry have all come out the last few days when during the same time there's also been a massive investigation published on an online rape academy with millions of viewers a month and none of them have bothered to even cover it, even as news

I managed to finish watching The Other Bennet Sister today and oh what a joy. Ella Bruccoleri as Mary is utterly wonderful. + Mrs Bennet got some empathetic treatment at the end. Loved seeing a familiar story both from the eyes of a lesser-written character and with my own added life experience.

Ezekiel was off sick today. Getting Clem (5) ready for school, she piped up with âwhy does Ezekiel have spots on him but Zachariah and me donât?â. I felt a CHILL to my bones and a rush of panic went over me. It turned out she was talking about his freckles.

Hundreds sign open letter calling for owner of website, from which UN has distanced itself, to âcontribute meaningfullyâ More than 900 people have signed an open letter to the owners of the website internationalwomensday.com demanding that it âcontribute meaningfullyâ or step aside. âIt is our strong belief that you have been exploiting a social movement for financial gain, without addressing any of the genuine structural issues the day was founded on,â stated the letter, authored by two UK-based professionals and circulating widely on social media.
