I am, I think, and the rest of the time I just quiddle.

Just this.

“At the time, we were liberated. Today, we must liberate ourselves… From hatred and hate speech, from xenophobia and contempt for democracy – for they are but the old evil in a new guise.”

The President of Germany marks 75 years since the end of the war in Europe.

@DrMoragKerr @elagnab @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust @LightninLex @BBCRadio3 I'm fairly philosophical about the way Twitter works, and am not really bothered. People who are curious, or who I'm talking with, will look behind the warning. I'll probably not be back for some years again but this has been good, thank you.

@DrMoragKerr @elagnab @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust @LightninLex @BBCRadio3 Or it's because I can't remember the last time I posted on X and then suddenly there's a flurry of posts from me.

@DrMoragKerr @elagnab @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust @LightninLex @BBCRadio3 I think it's because I keep referring to the g blog website! I'm reading an interesting article by Peter Daly about navigation of gender beliefs by organisations.

[OlderNoneTheWiser @CiderGipsy]

@DrMoragKerr @elagnab @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust @LightninLex @BBCRadio3 Whatever the outcome, I hope NT put it back on display with an explanatory panel - after all, it is interesting (current) history. I'm reading an item on genderblog, essentially an article by Peter Daly about the complexities of navigating different gender beliefs.

[OlderNoneTheWiser @CiderGipsy]

@DrMoragKerr @elagnab @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust @LightninLex @BBCRadio3 Yes I agree - it's uncertain, and may have been there all along. I do hope they show the dress anyway - after all, many artworks are on display with info panels about the history of damage - it tells a good story. And there are two other uncovered names 👍

@DrMoragKerr @elagnab @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust @LightninLex @BBCRadio3 I sent a link for genderblog dot net which has this

@fairnotkind @LightninLex @DrMoragKerr @WrathQueenof @JeanHatchet @Danny_Fullbrook The bit on the fold is out of focus but the colour does suggest that of the overstitching. Only Layla will really know, if she kept a detailed record. But from the point of view of the purpose of the dress, I am cheered that Jo's name appears several times - it speaks for itself.

@DrMoragKerr @elagnab @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust @LightninLex @BBCRadio3 @classicjacko ah, thank you for that. Yes this particular name is behind a fold of fabric. But I'm glad her name is there several times - I did feel that this would be a good situation if the overstitching had to remain. I wonder if more detailed photos exist in some archive.

[OlderNoneTheWiser @CiderGipsy]

@DrMoragKerr @elagnab @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust @LightninLex @BBCRadio3 @classicjacko Twitter really isn't helping understanding! I can see your reply in my notifications, but not what you are replying to. Hey ho. But I'll guess: NT didn't notice the overstitching after it had been done and if they had, probably just assumed it was original. Wish you all the best.

[OlderNoneTheWiser @CiderGipsy]

@DrMoragKerr @JeanHatchet @LightninLex Not sure which website you mean but the one on Layla's website is of the dress on display in situ, and after all contributions had been completed. This is supported by the text on the page.

[OlderNoneTheWiser @CiderGipsy]

@DrMoragKerr @elagnab @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust @LightninLex @BBCRadio3 @classicjacko or simply assumed it was in the original

[OlderNoneTheWiser @CiderGipsy]

@DrMoragKerr @elagnab @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust @LightninLex @BBCRadio3 @classicjacko They probably didn't notice it 🙄

[OlderNoneTheWiser @CiderGipsy]

@LightninLex @DrMoragKerr @WrathQueenof @fairnotkind @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust Look at Layla Khoo's own website.

[OlderNoneTheWiser @CiderGipsy]

@LightninLex @WrathQueenof @fairnotkind @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust For evidence, look at Layla Khoo's own website.

[OlderNoneTheWiser @CiderGipsy]

@DrMoragKerr @elagnab @JeanHatchet @BBCNews @Danny_Fullbrook @nationaltrust @LightninLex @BBCRadio3 @classicjacko ah, but that is what happened. Look at Layla Khoo's own website to see that the completed dress put on display after contributions were closed, had no overstitching. The overstitching was the vandalism. This is simple fact.

[OlderNoneTheWiser @CiderGipsy]

@DrMoragKerr @JeanHatchet @LightninLex It only takes a moment to look at Layla Khoo's own website, to see that the dress originally displayed did not have any overstitching. The pink white blue stitching was the vandalism. I'm trying not to read anything into this.

Astonishing news about #CharlotteDujardin, rumour mill in over drive about what exactly she has done.

But just a reminder that convicted child rapist Steven van de Velde will still be competing at #Paris2024
