#BBCRadio4 An outstanding radio essay on the US election by James Naughtie this morning. Absolutely in the same class of writing and delivery as Alastair Cooke’s used to be. More Naughtie essays please BBC.

We saw a moth getting pollen from some garden daffodils. This is slowed down 200 times. #JLowenWildlife - any thoughts?

Why does the Oxford Mail want us to wait until 2023 for the Round Table firework display in South Park? https://t.co/CaLGi5XSjZ

Oxford’s biggest fireworks event is back this week, with more charities set to benefit from the money raised.

I have added a bit more to the blog about Middlesex CC fire regulations in 1898 and a Parliamentary Select Committee discussion in 1914 about the effectiveness of non-flam film in actual use.

Hmm — I tweeted that a year ago. The situation is far worse now.
I’ve warned for some years now that the concerted attacks on the BBC would end in its destruction. Only a determined few want this to happen. The rest are unthinkingly caught up in the mud-slinging, or feel powerless. If you want the BBC to survive, now’s the time to speak up.

Ring out a slowly dying cause, And ancient forms of party strife; Ring in the nobler modes of life, With sweeter manners, purer laws. Alfred Lord Tennyson - 1809-1892

Thanks to Will M "...We hadn't realised it had been positioned in a way that would obstruct the view to the main road. It has been moved now closer to the store so it will not be a hindrance to both the drivers and the passers-by."

The pavement board outside #UpAndRunning in #headington obscures the view of approaching traffic from emerging vehicles creating a potential and avoidable hazard.

Driving in #Sheffield on Langsett Road near Ripley Street, concentrating on unfamiliar roads and tram lines using a #TomTom #SatNav? Watch out for the sneaky (poorly signed in advance) '#BusGate' trap.
