I do think that two soprano pipistelle bats ‘visiting’ us in one evening is a bit much.

This paragraph rather leapt out from David Runciman’s review of Samuel Moyn’s Gerontocracy in America (current @lrb.co.uk). Context: ‘the remorseless greying’ of some areas of US academia; but these are also my thoughts precisely.

A footnote to this excellent thread: it's worth remembering Robert C. Palmer, who was responsible for the AALT site - a vast repository of digital photos that has transformed how we research late medieval England. historyofparliament.com/2023/03/23/a...

Did you know that we have a nearly unbroken span of legal records from the 13C in England that have not been calendared, much less edited & published? Only in the last 20 years have these records been digitized & that has been the dogged project of a dude at a university in Texas. 4/n

Got this right today (with scaled down quantities) and can definitely recommend.

this is an AFFRONT to my people so let me tell you how you ACTUALLY do this. Five teabags. Boil a litre in kettle. Pour it over teabags in saucepan. Let steep for 15 minutes. Now I recommend adding some sugar and lemon juice at this point but not mandatory. Add three litres cool water. Fridge.

The first Comma butterfly in our Staffs garden since late April. Progeny of the overwintering ones, I suppose. Interesting still-life with a greenish-coloured fly.

As someone whose 96 year-old mother is cared for so well by wonderful care staff: I wholly agree.

Margot Finn

'Rayner told the BBC it would be "un-British" to make care staff already in the UK wait for up to 15 years - rather than the current five - before being allowed to settle permanently.' Well said. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
