Our 2025 version of "Carol of the Bells" - originally a Ukrainian New Year celebration song "Shchedryk" - music first written by Mykola Leontovych in Pokrovsk (now under Russian occupation). The composer would be murdered by a Soviet agent in 1921.

A temporary return to share the genius of Tom Lehrer who left us today. Please zoom in on the titles of these wonderful songs and then head off to YouTube to find them. You won't regret it. I'm off to Poison Pigeons in the Park in his honour. #tomlehrer

@LydiaJane13 Maybe it's been asked to be a bridesmaid?

[Andrew Maville @contextsense]

@LydiaJane13 It must be worth getting for your content, Jane, but that fabulous picture of the Halifax on the cover is the best icing your cake could have

@ClearedAsFiled @MikeBerridge @railwaychaplain @RAF_Luton Well, I for one appreciate the effort @RAF_Luton puts into ensuring that none of their statements contain facts that contravene the Official Secrets Act

RT @fakehistoryhunt: I know everyone on the internet has already made this joke but I just have to.

Aargh - call dropped at 3hrs exactly, so still no progress

[Andrew Maville @contextsense]

How does anyone get any support from @pandocruises customer services? I am now on a record 2hrs and 25mins in the queue, and they close in 45 minutes time. It's something their systems require me to speak to them 😞

Imagine telling this story without proof:

“I didn't go to work because a cat fell on my head and then a dog with shoes tried to do me justice.”

@jamesjhistory Well, given that my Dad volunteered for Bomber Command, and joined the police post-war, it would be a betrayal of his service if I didn't take an anti-fascist stance myself.

Context is everything, which is why short clips and soundbites are dangerous...

People watching the footage that Tice has somehow obtained and released of the police officer. Please keep in mind the following context because it's clearly very important: 1/15

@AdamWatkinson1 Great uncle, from desert war pre Alamein, still had copies of the news sheets circulated out there, "Two Types" cartoons, and a few photos...

My Dad, ex RAF Bomber Command, had a different selection, including some escape kit, and a bullet reassembled from spent parts

@jamesjhistory just to flag this - as well as these art prints, Lisa is selling some of her collection of books, so a range of early war Bomber Command stuff included

[Andrew Maville @contextsense]

@jamesjhistory Fab - in a non-Halifaxey sort of way, eh, @LydiaJane13

You know those times when someone you thought was good makes you step back and re-evaluate...

Not so much "good" as "Bloody Marvellous"!
