Re: Miscellany: New Year, 2017
I knew from visits to Dublin that, 'Dubh' was 'black' and the rest just took a little research. Incidentally,, I find it interesting that we have 'Blackpools' on either side of the Irish Sea.

I'm fortunate in that, I have two relatively new knees. (Youngest DGD asks me how old I am and, I explain that most of me is 69 but, my right knee is alm...

We tend to have speakers every week who talk on a range of subjects. Looking at the programme for a twelve week '...

Re: Miscellany: New Year, 2017
Good morning everyone. Lovely start to the day here, close to the centre of England. I hope that all are as well as may be expected. A good (albeit a busy one) weekend here at Castle Cravat.

Re: Trump/Farage Alliance
Personally, I cannot believe that either of them are worth a light. One of the reasons that I gave up taking a daily newspaper, is that I couldn't stand opening the pages of a quality newspaper and seeing articles about or by them.
