RT for chance to win a signed copy of BLITZ - out in May. For too long ‘The Blitz’ has been framed as a few desperate months in 1940/41 mainly affecting London. But attacks were far more widespread, far more devastating, & for most of the war. The BLITZ story is now told afresh:

If you love Larry please read this post from @justin_ng who is being wrongly accused as author of the @Number10cat accounts and being criticised for the views being posted.. Please support Justin who selflessly keeps us all informed of the antics of Larry just to make us smile 😻
Hi Folks, right a fair few of you are asking me about the Number10cat acct and what's happened to it. I have few things to say about this. Firstly, the acct is active on bluesky. see below latest post from a day ago.

An incredibly special moment celebrating the amazing work of Mel Jones, Dr Catherine Ordway and Emma Staples. The 2025 Spirit of Cricket award winners for organising the evacuation of the Afghanistan’s Women’s Cricket team in Australia. The standing ovation was much deserved.

RIP Paddy. He will forever be remembered along with all The Few @Memorial_theFew
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of John ‘Paddy’ Hemingway DFC – Last of ‘The Few’. We reflect not only on his sacrifices, but the sacrifices of all those who served & fought in WWII. Paddy, thank you for your service. Per Ardua ad Astra raf.mod.uk/news/articles/the…
