In a few months time, I turn 50 (somehow) & have just managed to arrange few days of escape with the family on Holy Island Randomly, I've picked up a Paul Theroux book of essays; the first chapter includes this segment from one of his own novels and it's really cheered me up

You mean all those saying an early election would happen were talking nonsense? No, I won’t believe it

I don’t think this is unreasonable If a parent makes this choice, making sacrifices should be par for the course

This is an astonishingly weak story Based on a "whistleblower" about whom readers know nothing, making claims that are either false or entirely unverifiable No one pretends the system works, but for The Times to make it their lead story is lazy and pathetic

The Sun is just an unpatriotic embarrassment

Must say, I think it’s refreshing to see a politician reduce the status of our national flag below a crap model of a bear

Probably about 2,000+ people in Crystal Papace Park A fantastic atmosphere, a great leveller, had the enthusiasm of an Indian mela We were with our kids and hopefully they’ll remember today at the next one when we’ll be long dead

The Mail is getting worked up by celebs having greener lawns than mere plebs But the latest example is Jamie Oliver whose garden, the paper describes, is "lush" Well it justn't isn't. It's parched and seems a flmisy excuse to stick a drone to give everyone a glimpse into a private property

Dropped into St Michael’s, Onibury, Shropshire A beautiful, simple, church with elements dating back to the 12th century But particularly taken with the Arts & Crafts lights and pews by Detmar Blow

I dropped in at The Sun Inn, with a vague idea of writing about Parlour room pubs Found another one today in Onibury

The sort of press coverage a prime minister normally only dreams about Starmer must be wishing there was a cartoon character he could have instantly become (Good work @guyvenables.bsky.social)

Interesting looking at the West End ward (Westminster) to see what impact a more divided vote has had on results The one Tory (Tim Barnes) who stood in 2022 & 2026, actually got fewer votes this time & was elected No Green candidates in 2022 but this year clearly played a role in Labour's defeat
