Last night, I acted as MC at the @WakefieldCivicS Autumn Dinner. (And a great night was had by all!) That was my final hosting event of the year. Time now to relax.

Acquired an original 'Official Guide' to the British Empire Exhibition 1924 as part of my research for a new talk. Pleased to see that Sirdar, a Wakefield-based company still operating today, was one of the exhibitors.

Just had a look to see what Grok said of this "Trickett’s attire, including glasses and a classic sweater, aligns with a 2020 Men’s Health trend of celebrities embracing glasses as a stylish accessory, adding a dapper, intellectual vibe to his public image as a community leader."

A rather splendid model of Sandal Castle has been donated to Sandal Library. Why not call and take a look and then visit the nearby site. @WFlibraries @WFMuseums @WkfdHistSoc

Winning seats is one thing. It's what you do next that really counts and being in power brings all sorts of responsibilities that will require some serious work and difficult decisions. It's not as easy as it looks.

It's not settled. Far from it. (Now going to duck.)
The question of our future membership of the EU is for the voters of the future, not the voters of the past. In a rapidly changing trading and geopolitical environment, the terms of the UK’s engagement with Europe cannot be assumed to have been settled by a 52 - 48 vote a decade
