@SeaSpitfires CSM Cleary explaining the MP40. Not too long before he was killed, near La Londe.

The AI versions are cock awful, but worryingly they will get better in time and will become more difficult to identify.

@LibertyBusje where has the 13 gone, 7.41 from Queens Valley East? This happened yesterday too. Is it still coming and your GPS isn't running or am i going to be late for work? It was on the schedule 10 mins earlier!

@SeaSpitfires @NPGLondon Where’s the sodding Channel Islands??

[Dominic Butler @iamdombut]

@ReassessHistory Interesting to see that they (IWM London) have lost 320k visitors in comparison to 2019. There are a number of factors i suspect (covid being just one of them) but that's a huge loss.

Okay @sabaton, let's do this. My 10 year old's first ever gig. Cannot wait.

[Dominic Butler @iamdombut]

@sabaton looking forward to the Nottingham gig later, but my son and i had a question for you...

[Dominic Butler @iamdombut]

It has been brilliant to listen to such varied history topics, particularly this year. I do think that there should be an episode dedicated to the Battle of Jersey in 1781, but then, i am slightly biased. Of course, if they wanted to visit Jersey next summer and fire a cannon...

Did you know that in June 1940, two of Jersey's elected States Members were serving members of the armed forces?

Their names were Leslie Thomas Anthoine and Ralph Edward Bishop Voisin.

Scroll through the images and learn more about their stories.

@SeaSpitfires @Taff_Gillingham @BO3673 Hate the way he writes about his father. He was invited by LIM to see his fathers stuff on display but didn't bother to reply, then begged for free research to get Lt Col Burbury's grave date changed, but left us to do all the work. The spouted about him fixing it...he didn't.

#WHWF Funf starting. Home for the next few days. Anyone else here already?

[Dominic Butler @iamdombut]

@Nickleh See you over there Nick!

[Dominic Butler @iamdombut]

If you have a spare half hour, I did a podcast with the States Assembly on the political side of the Occupation of Jersey. One for perhaps @Nickleh, even if its not the right Channel Island for him!

@IanMile36813250 @SeaSpitfires @ReassessHistory @SeaSpitfires book is genuinely brilliant, his vast knowledge of Sword drips through each page, and his enthusiasm to 'get it right' with detail is quite infectious; something I aspire to in any future publications (too busy firing cannons atm!).
It's a fantastic piece of work.

[Dominic Butler @iamdombut]

@PeterABedford Look at Jersey for this Peter, we have had two informative and challenging debates on this subject already, before any laws are implemented. Worth reviewing certainly.

[Dominic Butler @iamdombut]

I should also add, hopefully this is a nice little thread for @WeHaveWaysPod fans.

[Dominic Butler @iamdombut]

So, following on from this comment I made a few days ago, I thought I would do a quick thread on the coolest Grandad who happened to be a fairly rubbish pilot. Meet John Bernard Noble.

[Dominic Butler @iamdombut]

If anyone wants it, its still on Amazon and it’s called White Flash (after the white flash in the cap for cadets). I should add, he survived the war, lived until 2006 and was a very successful Optician in Northamptonshire. I hope you have enjoyed this thread about a good man.
