Tomorrow afternoon 20th Dec 2024, at sunset the Solstice lantern will again be lit at Stonehenge & processed to the Warm Springs at Amesbury to celebrate the end of the darkest nights. It will keep burning overnight & return for sunrise where it mysteriously extinguishes itself.

@AnneEBailey1 Happy feast day! Sadly, Osmunda never saw Salisbury or its magnificent cathedral. He was responsible for building the cathedral at Old Sarum, and buried there in 1099. He was moved to the new cathedral in 1457.

The Gaza Ministry of Health released a 649-page document with the name of every identified Palestinian killed in Gaza.

The first 14 pages alone are babies under the age of one.

This is not self-defense. This is genocide.

@HistoricEngland If residents of Shrewton, near Stonehenge, are worried about the impact of vehicles on their village, they might sympathise with the people of Bibury who post notices in multiple languages on their gates to keep tourists out of their gardens!

Hundreds of millions of pounds of profit are being extracted from children's homes by private equity and other owners. This week’s The Rest is Money podcast is a special episode on the disastrous deterioration of support for families in crisis and the escalating scandal of private-sector residential care for children removed from parents https://t.co/v7OBNbi14R
