#spiderman 60 years ago avidly read my cousin Peter’s copies of Spider-Man comics-loved them.Last night went to #brandnewday with my identically aged grandson- we enjoyed it . Realised that TDCH was Londons Senate house where 50 yrs ago I was studying in the Library!! Amazing !
I am confused that Baroness Halley could say that there was ‘no corruption ‘ in the handling of Covid PPE contracting . IMO it was a corruption of expected standards in government irrespective of any personal gain in those processes. The process itself was corrupted. @RoyLilley

Have invented a new olympic endurance event. ‘Hot knitting’
Was sitting knitting last night and had to stop because I was getting far too hot and uncomfortable - could it catch on - marks for endurance and length and half for artistic impression?? 🤦♀️

Our London Marathon choir of 10 is now a choir of two - thanks to Scope's actions.
If you enjoying singing and can be in south east London tomorrow morning, please get in touch.
Ironically (some might say) we are an inclusive group. No previous choir experience needed. All the songs are well known and we provide lyric books (so you don't need to be able to read music). We're a 'pop up' choir - so are well used to singers rocking up and joining us on the day.
If you enjoy singing in the shower/car you're in. No politics - just fun, singing and encouraging the runners.

or DM if you can help.

The basis of this are words +their meaning?
How they reach my brain is in multiple ways
My vocabulary+its meanings have been reached by complex methods
I have a young relative who has found ‘reading ‘ difficult but has a great oral vocabulary + draws brilliant comics
