Found in an old Chinese puzzle box I hadn’t opened for years: A snapshot of my student years in the 1980s. Poignant.

Arrived today: Ordered these from a shop on Thera ( Santorini) a couple of weeks ago- set of stamps from 1973 showing the Bronze Age frescoes and pottery from Akrotiri (Bronze Age site on Thera that was destroyed by a volcano in c. 1550 BCE). Timing is all.

Tonight's efforts in Alpha Centauri - I'm a rubbish AX pilot, but can take out the little ones, so that should help a bit. Maybe.

Earth last week after the Thargoids arrived; let's hope we can save her from more destruction.

While we're being distracted with all the new ships, just wanted to remind us all how lovely an Asp in front of things can look.... :-)

The long walk across the social media desert from the place of nightmares to a place of hope (OK, more 'greenish sky' than 'blue sky' :-) )
