@timenw.bsky.social Hello! Radio Jackie says - One of West London’s most iconic landmarks, the Gillette Clock Tower, is ticking once more. The clock has been restored to its former glory as part of the Golden Mile Centenary (GM100) celebrations.

Among the lost positives consigned to the dusty corners of the dictionary is ‘reck’, meaning ‘care’, ‘heed’, and ‘consideration’. Which means we can be reckful instead of reckless (and feckful, gormful, ruthful, ept, kempt, couth, consolate, and many more).
