@path_dependent Seems completely reasonable to me. We all benefit from public expenditure, and we all have responsibilities to others.

Good memories of David in CURDS, in Newcastle in the 1980s. Always a true gentleman and a supportive colleague. RIP.

@path_dependent @woohooctopus I'm sure I remember them from when I was a child, so that's back in the sixties and I think they were old fashioned then.

@militaryhistori Absolutely. The library needs to be big enough to hold all of my books, as well as my guitars, a large desk and some appropriate reading chairs.

@Ottojizzmark Pretty vacant by the Sex Pistols

@path_dependent Of course national treasures have to be in London. After all if they were elsewhere the London elites would have to travel to see them. That probably wouldn't be a bad thing.

@jacquep Proud to be a remainer/rejoiner. I'm just very sad that my predictions that it would all end in tears are coming true. The British people were lied to, there are no positives from this.

@militaryhistori Plenty of Brits not in the queue!

[David Charles @davidrobertchar]

@DylanIsWriting Per shelf? I do agree that it can be hard to find books when they are double stacked.

[David Charles @davidrobertchar]

@PMCallaghan But of course, Brexit was always intended to benefit the rich only.

@euyarra @infyde I worked with Jaime back in the early 90s. He was a lovely man, always with a smile, and very knowledgeable. I'm really sorry to hear he has passed. My condolences to all who knew him.

[David Charles @davidrobertchar]

@MIOIR @euyarra Congratulations Elvira!

@WolfgangPetzold Best wishes for your retirement Wolfgang.

@greynowfire @SomeAreDead Solar is perfect for Australia as peak demand is driven by air con. Use seems to be growing so not sure where your information comes from.

@stephenkb Interesting to see that Tom leaves out Newcastle in his map. It kind of reinforces a Northumbrian perspective that even the Northern Powerhouse often forgets about us. But then we are a lot further North!
