Hi Val, was it me or the McEwans but I once met Kate Brannigan and Bill Mortensen, maybe the late 70s? In The Swinging Sporran, by UMIST. Between the railway arches and the multistorey. A bleak bar made beautiful by the dreams of we undergrads. (we meet again in two weeks!) @valmcdermid.bsky.social

A memorial above Ver-Sur-Mer in Normandy.
When a thing is done well, in Brit design or tech or endeavour, I like to share. This place, on this day, 6th June, deserves a mention, and a visit when you can. The British Normandy Memorial at Ver-sur-Mer, above Gold and Juno Beach

There is a Sète?
In Margate?
Glad I read that.

Hope you also get to try the full pleasure of the place, on the Med.

Lots of surprises, and all good ones.

Whatever this Abu Dhabi F1 weekend holds, one final Lewis team picture tells a story. For those that see a supreme racer and decent person, it is the end of one great era, and the start of another to come.

When a political leader stays around long enough to meet a promise. Macron.👏
“We will rebuild Notre Dame even more beautiful and I want that to be done in the next five years.” The words of Emmanuel Macron in 2019 after the blaze ravaged Notre Dame.
Well done Paris.

Welcome Frank. I'm expecting some bold moves. The seats at CBS Arena should have belts. Strap in every one. 👏

People starting to see a Vic, in Norman. He'll be himself I hope. I did think of Ronaldo, after the Red card.
I was praying "do not wink". The dark arts work best in the dark. Decent draw. Upwards is the only way. #SBA #PUSB #SkyBlues #NormanBassette

It started with a bloke on a bench, and loved your work since. @gracedent.bsky.social

England had a great night, and Lee Carsley did his job well. Managers that put their club, players and fans, before self interest. They do exist, and we have to hope for another one.

One of the greats is gone. RIP Alain Delon.

Three of my favourite movies were all the better for his work.

- Plein Soleil (Mr Ripley)
- The Leopard (Sicily)
- The Yellow Rolls Royce

From devious homicide, to the end of a kingdom, then a technicolour road movie. Try one.

Saw this version of the medal table. They divide opinion, so here's mine. The national winners, by Golds, are exactly that. Rank by wins should be the gold standard.

That said, contestants are invited to 'take part', so there is a case for ranking by podium points. Room for both. #Olympics #Paris
