@spectatorindex Everyone cheers Spain rejecting Maduro's regime but the real twist is a European leader calling out America's illegal invasion while staying silent on years of socialist destruction in Venezuela.
@arthistorynews Having lived in France and spent time in Spain the unwillingness of British ex pats to learn the local language concerned me. Ok They spent money there but still kept in their own areas and refused to mix locally.
@campbellclaret I always look forward to the tree of the day. Perhaps one soon of the emerging ash dieback resistance ones. Truly awesome story for tree and nature lovers.
@Otto_English I remember during the last down turn overhearing a conversation in a City pub. " Of course the situation does not just affect the rich - Damien has had to sell part of his art collection" . Cue spluttering my beer.
@MattNorth_ Excellent. Any material differences between Scottish and English experience? Been to Ibrox and Celtic Park and also many years (40?) ago to Tyne castle with your dad. I remember horrible little pies.
@MattNorth_ And a Good New Year to you. I see you are in Scotland and presumably have seen or are seeing Dan. Give him my regards. Hope the weather is not too unkind up there. It's a bit grim in Somerset but we shall battle our way to our local.
