There is a reason I retreat a lot of these.
Six million Jews being murdered by the Nazis is staggering. But the victims were much more than statistics, they were people like you and me with lives, hopes and loves.

It must take a lot of courage to go back to a place like Auschwitz and the awful memories that it dredges up.
Very brave.
Please follow
@AuschwitzMuseum

Herbert has been retired after having 2 unfotunate but seperate incidents involving my grandson and dog, that left him armless.
Meet Edgar, not as grumpy as Herbert, who was drunk half of the time. No, Edgar is always happy as he's drunk ALL of the time.

A moving, memorable day touring
@AuschwitzMuseum
. Had the special privilege of seeing the extraordinary work to catalog every item as evidence of those murdered there. Laborious, painstaking work by dedicated curators using the best technology available. Stunning.

I did my best to drum Rock music into him much of it from the 70s . It obviously didn't take. 🙄
So many great rock bands from then and he can only think of Elton John!😱

Ten years ago today at 12:30pm UK time I went into an operating room at Addenbrokes Hospital.
About 12 hours later I came round with a new kidney and pancreas both of which worked.
No more insulin, no more dialysis.
I will never forget my donor.

These crimes were not perpetrated by monsters, they were people who acted like monsters.
It is vital that we remember that, in case while looking for monsters, we miss the people who are likely to peddle hate and division.

The police have arrested a man in his thirties for murdering a song and trying to imitate a musician. A police spokesperson said "we feel as music lovers that this heinous crime is lowering the tone and striking the wrong note".
@samclaflin
8 years ago today I received a life saving kidney and pancreas transplant in Addenbrookes hospital Cambridge.

I cannot praise the

enough, I have had multiple health issues and life saving treatment from them at no cost.
They are under staffed, under funded and under immense pressure. Despite this they continue to deliver a first class service with amazing staff.
