This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.

Evening, hope you’re all well

So, what have I missed?

[Mark W. @DurhamWASP]

“Still they stand, the churches of England, their towers grey above billowy globes of elm trees, the red cross of St George flying over their battlements... schoolmistress at the organ, incumbent in the chancel, scattered worshippers in the nave...”

Sir John Betjeman

First slum of Europe: a role
It won’t be hard to win,
With a cast of crooks and tarts.

And that will be England gone

"I believe that order is better than chaos, creation better than destruction. I prefer gentleness to violence, forgiveness to vendetta…"
