I wish I'd took a photo. I was just holding my dog to let a huge bulldozer tractor drive past and politely waved only to see two children in the cabin driving this potential weapon of mass destruction. I swear they can't have been any older than 8 years old. More like Real Ireland round this way today.

A man spent £30,000 of his savings on a failed legal battle "for justice" over a £100 speeding fine.Richard Keedwell, 71, said a "seriously flawed" legal system meant fighting the fine had taken nearly three years and used up his sons' inheritance money.

3 years, money that could have been better spent elsewhere, flawed intransigent authority, probably a brexit analogy somewhere.

beryl cook's imagery is so conservative 50's real england it gives me a queasy feeling.

since Spall played another painter, Turner (which was good) he's done some awful projects including playing David Irving, and I think this is going to be another awful one by the reviews I've just skimmed.

I was born 11 years after WW2, we still had shortages, vegetables were seasonal, we ate a lot of offal but fish was plentiful, I survived. We had a three day week of electricity I survived. We had a drought and failed crops, I survived. Yellow hammer? A walk in the park.— Gary White (@prydwen3) September 12, 2019
Born in '58, no proper bathroom in the house, played in an old air raid shelter at the back of the house, gas lighting on the stairs leading to what would be called nowadays a flat. No supermarkets, but the high street was always busy and there were no empty unused shops. 😀— LBG6224 (@gerry6224) September 13, 2019
'54. No bathroom, no running hot water, coal house next to the outside loo in the yard.Comfortable now, but brought my kids up to understand that money doesn't grow on trees, to think for themselves, and that nothing in life is guaranteed.We all voted to leave the EU.— Jan Hoggarth (@HoggarthJan) September 13, 2019
1948, one week into NHS. Veg was seasonal, dad grew stuff on an allotment. Chicken was a luxury. Loved Spam fritters. Sunday roast lasted for thee days. What was ‘latte’ ‘Americano’? ‘Artisan’? Less choice, less complicated, healthier. Lot happier.— Brie (@Brie0748) September 13, 2019

I was born just after WW2 & didn’t see a banana until I was 5, I survived. Sandwiches = sugar or jam butties with Stork marg, no sweets, I survived.
