Wed Mar 02 09:39 The photo's a reminder that as a small child in my mind I attributed to the Troubles devastation inflicted by the Germans
Wed Mar 02 20:21 Since UK gov is talking Swift to give its oligarch sponsors time to liquidate assets, & Berlin is talking oligarchs in an attempt to salvage personal relationships with Gazprom, the least corrupt solution now is for the UK to be governed by the Germans & vice versa

Fri Mar 04 21:17 V small stage, v small public, but the pleasure of reinventing fairy tales on the hoof - smug tonight re the final scene of Gingerbread Dinosaur, catapulted to heaven, past the sun & the moon & the stars, to request favours for the Cunning Fox, before falling back into his jaws
Fri Mar 04 22:19 Someone must be able to tell me more about G.W. Boddy (“Players of interludes in North Yorkshire in the early seventeenth century”). I'm guessing George William

Tue Mar 08 11:01 Comment: @tombcn If only the Russians had a proper army, they could overthrow the bugger, then 5-10 years civil war & a saner & territorially smaller state would emerge
Tue Mar 08 12:08 Impression in Leeds & London is that for many drivers idling makes them feel more human, more in control. Utterly normal, even outside schools, & folks get very offended when asked to stop
Tue Mar 08 23:35 The notion that snowflakery was born of the combi boiler & cheap natural gas, just as denial of the devil came from electric light & its elimination of flickering shadow
Tue Mar 08 23:39 Comment: Also the hypothesis that if the toddler declines to get dressed to go out to the swings, & instead strips & starts a tea party, then evening up inside & outside temperatures by opening windows might lead her to reconsider. Result: none

Wed Mar 09 08:32 Comment: @tombcn Wasn't this just Poland asking the US to recognise that Nato's going to have to fight? I played at Ramstein ages ago. British bases were usually very drunk & violent, & there was a reasonable chance the MP would send us home, paid. The Americans had coffee & beer & sat around
Wed Mar 09 09:49 Comment: @tombcn Perhaps VP will need an escalation to improve domestics, perhaps China will manoeuvre clients like Russia & Turkey into a proxy war with the US, & there's no knowing the lengths to which Johnson will go in order to keep his nice wallpaper!
Wed Mar 09 20:51 Touched an early C19th hornbook, probably from the Welsh Methodists - marvellous thing, & I'll probably never touch another, but the toddler is quite happy learning her letters off a knackered old keyboard
Wed Mar 09 20:52 Comment: @ibexsalad Too hard for them anyway
Wed Mar 09 21:58 Neat Zelensky interview with Bild Unlike Putin he hasn't a Western language - English basic - but in all other senses he's gold - must be heartbreaking for the kremlin. Hoping that what seems to be a drop in refs to him in Russian media is not a false calm

Mon Mar 14 08:19 Just curious as to whether NATO had always been 100% determined to abstain, or whether there was a shift on Feb 24 when Putin said on telly that those who don't cooperate or who form a threat for the people will experience consequences they never have before i.e. chemical/nuclear
Mon Mar 14 20:18 Comment: @tombcn Many in Ukraine & Russia were convinced that when push turned into shove in eastward expansion Nato wouldn't simply keep any benefits for itself & assign the costs to UA, & now to some extent both the faithful & his enemies say that Feb 24 was genius on Poo-tin's part
Mon Mar 14 20:31 The only time the toddler paused for thought today was at the playground when two suspiciously jolly students (f) began playing on the equipment & one's generous boobs kept popping out in all directions. Unpacking my huge old sock-filled stage bra to see if it'll quieten her down

Wed Mar 16 10:03 Comment: @morrissey2020 @lordbonkers @Otto_English It says Happy Easter on top. Doesn't this go back to John Sentamu's stupid comment a few years ago supposing a conflict between Cadbury's Quakerism & an un-Eastered egg by them, apparently unaware that the Quakers (inc Rowntree's, makers of smarties) were never keen on Easter?

Mon Mar 21 20:37 Playground parents tend to be bored & boring, but several curiosities this PM: 1) PRC AI couple praised our younger toddler as brave for her climbing, & then made up ground by forcing theirs up and (shove!) down the high slide. Does Chinese research/culture support that?
Mon Mar 21 20:37 Comment: 2) British white underclass mum let slightly older girl negotiate playground solo, intervening only where mortal danger or weariness. Again, no idea if any research to support, but child very confident & competent, tho weak verbally
