We love the new Cyclopunt, dinky door, combining two of the most famous things about Cambridge! Have you found the packages nearby as well?

New cartoon: The RNLI
Cartoon titled “The RNLI: Some of the people they help,” showing six scenarios involving people rescued by the RNLI. Including a man caught by the tide, a YouTuber swimming without preparation, a middle-lane driver, a neighbour with different political opinions, a superyacht owner who forgot to refuel, and people crossing the Channel in a small boat. The final caption reads, “All human beings – all deserve saving.”

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, as a child. Off panel, someone says to her, “Enjoy your youth!”
The second panel shows child Sarah again, now frowning. The person off panel continues, saying “After you’re 30 you’ll be old and your life will basically be over.”
Before the last two panels there is text that reads “LIFE AFTER I TURNED 30.”
The third panel shows adult Sarah opening a door.
The fourth panel shows the door opens to a beautiful field with flowers, a rainbow, and a pond. Sarah says “Wait what.”

I'll say it again. All public car parking over a small number of spots should attract a mandatory minimum charge. This would level up between town centres and out of town retail. We charge for plastic bags because of the environment, we should do it for the car parking too?

NHS England runs training sessions on first aid, CPR and the use of defibrillators both in the community and in schools (as part of the Restart a Heart programme). This training should help to increase confidence in performing CPR on women.
NHS England has trained over 35,800 adults and children in CPR and defibrillation in the last 13 years. In 2025, it trained over 2,100 people in these vital skills.
The sessions are delivered by NHS England via its resuscitation team and community first responders.

leedsforeurope In 1933 the Nazis introduced the Law for the Encouragement of Marriage which offered interest-free loans of 1,000 marks to newlywed "Aryan" couples (a significant sum at the time), with a quarter of the loan forgiven for each child born.
In 1938 The Mother's Cross Award was instituted by Nazis. The award levels were:
Bronze for four to five children.
Silver for six to seven children.
Gold for eight or more children.
