For the last 5+ years people have been sharing coastal landscape images with the Global Shorelines Project. I mount exhibitions in aid of marine conservation charities.
Maybe send me an image of a coast you love with a sentence of commentary.

Imagine, just for a minute, you had a billion or a trillion $/£. Go on. Imagine.
Would you help to feed the poor, or help to heal the sick, or endow education placements, or defend democracy, or house the homeless?
People might actually remember you with love you for doing that.

Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …

Everyone should see a Shakespeare play live. If you think it might be inaccessible, because of the 'old' language, think again. Saw Measure for Measure recently and it's basically about abuse of power by misogynistic men. Sound familiar?
Oh.... and the cast in this one is spectacular.

I was wondering if there were any other bands who could claim to be the most influential, in the history of modern pop and rock music. These 4 British bands seem to be consistently on the list ... but would it be different in other countries?

I’ve lived with treatment resistant clinical depression since my mid-thirties, (I’m 62 now). Living adventurously has helped me discover my innate desire to live a fulfilling life, even when my illness threatens this.

Yeah! All booked for UB40 next year. With fabulous support guests.
Not seen UB40 since the 2010 'Signing Off' 30th Anniversary tour, when they played the entire album in sequence, followed by a greatest hits set. Can't believe it's 45 years since I bought that album!
