Posted on Sat, 21 Feb 2026
My dad was at the Wembley match in 1953 (he was 25), when Hungary smashed England 6-3 and stunned not just the English players and spectators but the entire country. He's 97 now and remembers it very well - he says the England team considered...

This is all so much like I remember our holiday driving down to a caravan in Devon in the 1960's, in a hired Zephyr. Me in the front passenger seat with Trotty the daschound on my lap, his head stuck out the quarterlight (remember them ?), his...

That's lovely Jenny, there's something magical about coming across the repesentation of a creature in such an unexpected place. You've captured the atmosphere perfectly.
There's a walk I do regularly on the north side of Cirencester where...

This is lovely Jay, a really beautiful story, full of sadness but full of hope. Unfortunately I agree that people turn on those who are a bit different, people who don't conform to the norms, nobody wants to be seen to be associating with them...

I only wish I could hear complete silence Rhiannon, that would be a wonderful thing. But I have had tinnitus for years and know I will never be able to hear it again.
