Truer words never said. 👏👏👏
Privatisation of the water industry has been a fraud, the greatest act of criminality ever perpetrated against the people of England and Wales.

I have cleaned-up this remarkable Autochrome portrait of the great French sculptor Rodin (1840-1917), looking statueque, draped in a white sheet in his studio 119 years ago. Rodin is most famous for creating 'The Thinker' and considered the founder of modern sculpture. This colour photograph was taken by Edward Steichen in 1907, showing Rodin seated in front of his sculpture "Eve". It is an early colour glass-plate process and not colourised.

I've always loved this. The struggling sun and skeleton trees
Rowland Hilder 1905-1993
Described as the Turner of his generation, he lived most of his life in the Kingdom of Kent
The countryside around him inspired his artwork for a lifetime, and I am surrounded by these locations

Scientists say that the world's mangrove forests - which help to store huge amounts of climate-warming carbon - are showing signs of recovery.
Mangroves were considered one of the world's most threatened ecosystems thanks to decades of deforestation and development.
But the new findings show they are naturally regenerating and even expanding in many areas.

I linked to this 16 months ago. It's still as described. RIP Sir Alex Younger.

This is the best summary of the current geopolitical situation I have seen. Sir Alex Younger was head of MI6 between 2014 and 2020. Really worth watching.

DID YOU KNOW: Sequoia and redwood trees alive today were already mature when the Roman Empire was at its peak — the oldest living giant sequoias are over 3,000 years old, which means they were standing in California before the Parthenon was built in Athens, before Julius Caesar was born, and before the Roman Empire even existed.

2 missing episodes of Doctor Who, The Morecambe and Wise Show, the very first Late Night Horror and now footage of The Beatles recorded for Top of the Pops. It’s an understatement to say the Film Is Fabulous initiative is successful!
