Intriguing mix … Wogan, Dame Edna, the Donald. How each handled it. Sade did quite well I thought, except not one of her good songs.

(0920)(0941)
20. Miliband’s grasp of ethics
19. Moosh corner
18. And that’s another reason I’m honoured she’s my blog-partner
17. Maybe I just needed a daughter
… maybe Australia did too … one of the daughters of the restoration.
16. Obama as if he’s still President, rather than “former”
Monday [11 to 15]
(0757) Morning all, light’s up and it’s a wonderful horizon to horizon poisoned cloud. (0819)
15. Playing for the other side
14. Organ harvesting in hospitals
13. Getting it right
12. Signal
11. DAD at 1274
a) Just as one thought that French politics could not get more [Insert your own word here. Mine is ‘stupider’ – if such a word exists.] M. Flanby chips in…. Midway through the conversation, François Hollande’s eyes lit up at the mention of the upcoming presidential election….
b) He may wish to reconsider now that yesterday’s election result is declared. In the Haute-Savoie by-election, UDR-RN candidate [right wing] Antoine Valentin came out on top (45.06%)….
c) Ireland’s Leaders grandstand overseas while reality crumbles at home. The country that lectures Europe on compassion can’t keep its own children safe, and the consequences are finally breaking through….
d) President Trump posted a video about vaccines captioned “They’re ALL poison. Every Single One!”
e) Russian FM, Lavrov, Names the “War Six”: European Leaders Plotting Direct Conflict with Russia. (JH: 9 minutes but the bit you need is around 6 mins.)
English courses with Toodles
If Toodles had realised how vital this was to be to British English speakers, she’d have sent the entire back catalogue.
Australia Day [6 to 10]
(0131) I feel the heading is justified for Brit/US readers of our political leaning as they have the same issues down there and this very Australia Day has been the subject of much strife down there. (0149)
10. Moosh corner
9. Treason … no other word for it
8. The (expletives) in Minnesota
7. A sorry situation
6. The Australian “leader” greets her country
She is the equivalent, though over a much longer time period, of Rupert Lowe as British “leader”.
Monday [1 to 5]
(0003) Had some sleep. Judging by the news, may have been better to pretend I was still asleep. Shall try for more soon. (0034)
5. Alberta
4. The invention of “brain death”
3. Fifteen minute cities

1. Activist judges
Rabbie Burns Night [16 till close of play]
(1700) Evening all … hope y’all having a fabulous time.
24. Minneapolis
23. Charming chap
22. Toodles
It was a youtube but here’s a sshot from it:
21. Shoolie permitted that I run this
She said it was yum.
20. Bruges Group
“The idea that the Tories only win as a broad church is demonstrably false. In the past 50 years, only Thatcher and Johnson have won substantial parliamentary majorities – neither on a centrist prospectus. The abandonment of conservatism is why voters have turned to Reform.”
19. Moosh corner
(JH: As I mentioned to Moosh … fresh meat is yum.)
18. Envious here
17. This 👇🏻
16. Chinese or Soros related funding it?
Some jazz
Sun Mat
Noted the “mediums” from our chaps, to be posted later … but also Kant Explain: archive-dot-org/details/laura_202003 … that’s going to take a bit of time to set up on HQ and shall do, but at this moment, time’s at a premium, what with jazz coming up … so going with the radio play via IYE just now, no blurb, have to start sorting the jazz. Also, great to hear better health news, IYE.
Frankly, I’d rather listen in bed than watch something … climbing back under the covers. Right, jazz is sorted for 1530, quick look around the blogs, then a snooze or listen.
Sunday [11 to 15]
(1357) Not sure there’ll be a film, chaps and chapesses, another burst of blogging below, then the jazz, then decide on a film or not. (1408)
15. Yes
14. Not sure who she is, must find out
13. Needs corroboration of course. Echo is MSM.
12. In one
11. I’d like to see it happen, can’t see it 🍿🍿🍿🍿
Canadians need a boot on the backside for their voting choices, just as our normies do too. Also, it would shake things up, might rid Canada of Carney and the psycho left.
