I have a few wild ones in my conservatory where I work. I love seeing them explore around my desk. They don't seem at all worried and come and hang around where I am.

St Mary's, Burwell, Cambridgeshire UK. A surprisingly beautiful 15th century church. #photography #England

I love this church! You can see it from the East Coast mainline. I went to see it a few years ago surrounded by beautiful wheat fields. #photography #churches

If you are ever near Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, you should visit The Cromwell Museum. It's a little gem, and the staff and volunteers are very welcoming. A really interesting building as well. Once part of a medieval monastic hospital, and school for Oliver #Cromwell and Samuel #Pepys.

Image of Rich Fulcher as Kodiak Jack in The Mighty Boosh, looking at a beautiful night time view and remarking that, when he looks upon a scene like that, he thinks of all the tiny animal penises.

Using Google Books ngram, it appears both "great war" and "world war" were in use at around the same time.

Definition is "capable of being elected". Starmer was elected as PM with a huge majority. The definition of very electable. There is no evidence so far (and I'm confident there never will be) that Corbyn was "electable". Not as PM.

Here he is on the banknote. I'm delighted you take such an interest in great British inventors. Thank you.

That torch is the Conservative Party symbol from the 1980s. Is this a move from disgruntled Thatcherites?

I'm sorry to hear that. I got that particular snippet from Jo Grady of the UCU. Not my uninformed comment. Kent appears to have nearly half the students Greenwich has (though much more than half the expenditure).

Text only: UCU's general secretary Jo Grady says that what is being described as a merger is "a takeover by Greenwich" as Kent was on "the brink of insolvency"

I think it means "erupt" in this sense.

These are choir pits at Whalley Abbey. The only remaining example in England. The choir was built on top and the extra depth was meant to add reverberation to create a deeper sound.
