So the 8th pope in my lifetime is #Pope Leo XIV. Interestingly Pope Leo XIII was the one that had most influence on my life’s activities! Hopefully this one will have the same impact as his namesake did in 1891. A champion for ordinary working people.

It will, however, be alive and well on Bluesky.

Sick of google AI Gemini. Followed all the instructions to turn it off in admin. To no avail. It’s like chewing gum on your shoe! Or Pop up ads! 🤬 In my 60s I know how to write an email or letter. I get it, there is a generation who can’t write, spell or use a phone as a phone! But seriously! FO!

Well those in the south who still imagine the north as a place of towns of Victorian dark satanic mills. What on earth gives you that impression? 🤷🏻 This was a misty #Todmorden #WestYorkshire last night.

On the 6th day of Xmas….Despite having the #CavityWall insulation removed because it caused a massive damp problem, I’ve had to resort to getting at the residue left behind myself, still causing low level damp! 😡One bin bag full just from this 6ft section.

Thumbing through my old address book (old as in ‘Filofax’ remember those?) for a list of potential Christmas card recipients, is proving a bit depressing, as more each year have shuffled off this mortal coil. (*note to self: cherish those who are left with genuine and personal Xmas messages)
