Wow, that brings back the memories from my time as a very junior member of staff in the planning department at Northallerton County Hall, patiently preparing maps and other documents for committee meetings, public enquiries and the like!

Looking Twitter, and this appeared in the sidebar:

Trending in United Kingdom
Nora Batty
Trending with Flowers of the Forest

I didn't click on it; some things are best left a mystery.

Ten Tweets from Mitch Benn about Alvin Stardust's career, and it is a really remarkable tale.

Brilliant and awful at the same time.

Back in the days when booking Deep Purple cost less than half the price of Marmalade.

Hopefully there’s a law meaning they have to honour those prices. Does anyone know if it’s nice over the weekend. I might book pink floyd and fleetwood Mac.

Well, that's all very well, LTS, but I don't think you can do it.

How do you allow for delays like the clearly overloaded chariot in front of you, slowing things down?  And then, who wants to use one of those viae tutae, without a breakdown lane on the inside?  Not to mention the Gaulish fishermen getting stroppy yet again with another blockade along the Anglicus Channel....

Plus there's the savage and primitive Brexitae tribe patrolling the cliffs of Dubris, with their gammon-coloured warpaint and tiny wavy fists...

David Allen Bawden (born September 22, 1959 in Oklahoma City[1]), who takes the name "Pope Michael", is an American citizen and a conclavist claimant to the papacy. He stated in 2009 that he had approximately 30 "solid followers".[2]

Bawden was elected by a group of six laypeople, which included himself and his parents, who had come to believe that the Catholic Church had apostatized from the Catholic faith since Vatican II, and that there had been no legitimate popes elected since the death of Pope Pius XII in 1958
