Remembrance is an important moment of the year when we show our support for our Armed Forces.

Wearing a poppy and supporting the #RoyalBritishLegion is one way to thank the Armed Forces for the sacrifices they continue to make to protect our freedom.

Starting my 3rd year ignoring the time change--I think I deserve Junior Time Lord status.

And that's the life he led (and physics is all the better for it).
Nobody ever figures out what life is all about, and it doesn't matter. Explore the world. Nearly everything is really interesting if you go into it deeply enough.

THE BIRDING DICTIONARY, a small and dare I say very funny book, comes out May 6. Preorder it wherever you love to buy books. I think this will make a good gift for any birder, funny person, or parrot who enjoys shredding things.
