Course woodwork, very much at the other end of the scale from the high art above. The boy absolutely loves it though. Good old clean fun.

Have you had some rain Eggs?

Shame, he was, (is), a nice guy. Made good contributions to the site. Notwithstanding his dissing of the West Country.

When did that happen? I didn't know he'd left.

I think pétard is the French word for banger, firecracker. I remember the thrill of being able to buy them freely from le tabac on a French exchange at school.

Nice weather for ducks. Miserable for us.

If only I were that accomplished at propaganda.

The most valuable thing I learnt last week was how to include "-ai" in any Google search. To avoid having to see that bloody annoying AI Overview garbage that normally crowds out anything useful at the top of the page.

Yep, we're ****************ed.

I bet old Farage is feeling nervous this week.

I heard earlier that the Polish PM Donald Tusk is suggesting that Epstein was a Russian spy. It's not inconceivable at this point.

I don't know about in education; maybe it's changed since my time, and my son is only in infant school, so there's obviously nothing with any political implication yet. Though I do think that there is now too much emphasis put on trans rights, slavery and other such "Wokery" in the public discourse. (In the case of slavery, let sleeping dogs lie, no point raking it all up again. Regarding trans rights, its fairly straight forward in my mind. If a person, of whatever label, has a male member, then they're not a member of the female toilet club. Simple.) However, I don't believe that it's indoctrination, and it's certainly not creating sick kids and young adults who want to kill and maim as many other people as possible. That's a far more serious issue that we should be discussing. IMO. I can't say that what children are learning or being indoctrinated in at school or uni is anywhere near the top of my list of concerns. It's what happens outside the education environment that really matters I think. Individuals referred to and supported through the Prevent Programme, April 2024 to March 2025 - GOV.UK WWW.GOV.UK
