Artists rarely paint views from studios other than their own. In this work from 1807 by the German landscape painter Carl Ludwig Kaaz the view through an open window, without any figures was rare for an oil painting at the time.

Beneath an unassuming spot in Margate, England lies the Margate Shell Grotto, a winding underground passageway discovered in 1835.

It was likely built sometime in the late 18th or early 19th century, though the exact date is unknown.

The walls and ceilings are covered in around 4.6 million seashells arranged into detailed mosaics of patterns, symbols and geometric designs. No one knows for certain who built it or exactly why.

It stretches roughly 70 ft (21 m) underground and remains one of the UK’s most unusual architectural mysteries, part folklore, part Victorian curiosity, still without a confirmed origin story.

One of the joys of thatching is getting to visit so many places where interesting people lived. #dodsonthatching #dodsonthatchers #masterthatchers #ruralcrafts #canbridgeshire

@veritasalways1 @royermattw Yes. Baffled by the response, though I guess I shouldn’t be these days 🥴

@royermattw That’s AI slop. Meanwhile, this is what’s happening on the streets…

Replace Terf with ‘trans’ and see if anyone would get away with it

My charity raises funds for girls' toilets to be built in developing countries so girls can go to school for 4 weeks of the month instead of 3. This isn't rocket science. Why are girls in the UK not allowed as much dignity and privacy?

@SineadWatson91 Thank you. It sounds interesting! I'll maybe have a go...

This dress is just crying out for a dance floor upon which to twirl. The pleats, fluted edges and tiers of fabric are bluebell like, a disco belle blooming on a summer’s evening. John Bates for Jean Varon, 1973 @Fashion_Museum #fashionhistory

For the leftie idiots commenting …In 2025, more than 40,000 doctors applied for 12,833 specialty training posts.

Of those applicants, 15,723 were UK trained doctors and 25,257 were overseas trained doctors competing for the same places.

The GMC says 138,405 doctors who qualified abroad were licensed to practise in the UK, representing 42% of all licensed doctors.

It is a waste of our talent and our money to give visas to foreign doctors when we have thousands here unable to find places.

“The idea that a man could be ‘perceived’ as potentially pregnant was first presented to me during the Tickle v Giggle submissions in 2023. It sounded as stupid then as it does now. The difference is that more Australians are finally listening.”

We have to do more to protect the producers who still make things here. Support > sentiment.

Once they're gone, they don't come back.

This Denby news is genuinely sad.

A good point raised by Chris Hinchliff MP.

“Absurdly for a country as wet as ours, we are hurtling towards a future where we are 6 billion litres of water short every year and the huge demands of tech companies AI data centres will only make that worse.”
