@jamesjhistory Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator - 1998 (Sopwith Camel was my go-to).

Desert Strike (1992) and Jungle Strike (1993) were favorites of mine on the Megadrive.

@Srra34200 @FrenchHist Chronologie: make a list with all the dates on - the most important of which are highlighted - then make a smaller list of those which are highlighted & repeat the process - until you have about five or ten dates per period that, to you, seem the most pertinent and memorable.

@LocalFR_Emma If there was no previous obligation to take a language test for a CdS, how would they know that a quarter of CdS holders don’t speak or understand French well?

[Merryn @rentaquill]

Too good not to share. Takes time to master it, but the results are impressive. Make your own situation maps. 😊

@DuncanWeldon Seems quite a wordy way of saying “As you were.”

@AlexTaylorNews 🎶 Break a sweat to get in; any productivity, we’ll take out; don’t be getting comfy or you’ll be thrown out. That’s what Truss’ migration policy’s all about. 🎶

@PhillipsPOBrien Blame will just be apportioned elsewhere - if there’s one thing these past few years have shown (again and again), it’s that there’s never a shortage of scapegoats to be found.

I arrived in 🇫🇷 understanding written French but speaking very little. It took a good few months before I felt capable of stringing sentences together in conversation…

Measures like ⬆️ are targeted at people like me, simply to boost his right-whinger credentials.

[David Foulk @DavidFoulk9]

Dog-whistle rhetoric from ‘tough on forrins’ Darmanin.

In order to simply get through the paperwork required to apply for a CdS, you already need to be proficient in French…

[Europe Street @EuropeStreet]

French government proposes that knowledge of French language becomes a requirement for multiannual long-term residence permits. This will concern UK citizens moving to France post-Brexit. https://t.co/pJyLkE2Ett @Le_Figaro

@DerbyYank13 @YouTube It's a tinderbox. 1,000 firefighters and six airplanes are doing their best to contain it but we're due to hit temperatures of 38°c today. Hope that people and towns will avoid using fireworks tonight (14th July fête)

The forest fires raging near us at Landiras.

Only a stone's throw from Chateau Yquem and the Sauternes vineyards.

Between the fires at Landiras and Teste-de-Buch, nearly 4,000 hectares of forest have gone up.

Microsoft Excel is used by 99.99% of the world’s businesses, and

Here are 10 basics everyone should know:

Contrition ❌ Self awareness ❌
“Them’s the breaks”… 🤦‍♂️

[Jon Sopel @jonsopel]

Wow. @BorisJohnson blames the herd instinct of the Conservative Party in Westminster for his demise. No attempt at self reflection for the problems and travails that have led to this

[Laurent THIERY @Laurent_Thiery]

Appel à communication pour ce colloque en 2023 sur la #Résistance qui s'annonce passionnant que j'ai plaisir à organiser avec Fabrice Grenard et la @fondationresist au Mémorial de Compiègne-Royallieu, entouré par un magnifique comité scientifique. Merci de partager ! @profenthese

'Stop it now, get up from your desks, walk away, no more.' 

In an extraordinary call this serving civil servant urges his colleagues who are facilitating Boris Johnson's 'lies' to quit. 

@mrjamesob

[David Foulk @DavidFoulk9]

The civil servant, with @mrjamesob on @lbc, underlining the danger from the cacophony of lies emanating from the heart of British government.

A powerful message, eloquently made.
