Hello Northumberland! This is America calling. More specifically, Ohio calling Michelle and friends. Such as it is. Me? I'm moving a little slow this morning.

But have noted that this is another great roundup of what's going on across the pond. You've posted a nice, wide variety of items this week. Never a dull moment. That destruction, by arson, of the pub is a real mystery. Sure, it could be coincidence that the digger used to destroy it was rented a couple days before the arson. And speaking of mysteries, I dunno what to think of the items missing from the British museum. Peter Higgs' son claims he's innocent. That he shouldn't have been fired. I donno. But things worth tens of thousands going for £40 on ebay? That's just disgusting.

I never heard-a Sir "Parky" before. TY for introducing him and the fine eulogy.

Denmark and Scottish Labour are two steps forward. But then canceling of Graham Linehan is a step backwards. But better than this side-a the pond, where it's all steps backwards, especially away from the science of child transitioning that article on Denmark presented. I just skimmed it, and hope to study it some more later.

I saw the headline about England playing in the World Cup! How fortunate for You all. I wish You great luck. (Tho, honestly, I hafta admit I don't follow soccer/football much.)

Last, but actually first: CONGRATULATIONS on Your new book coming out. You are a hero in my eyes.

All that to say... Friday's are always a pleasure with You around, Ma'am. TYTY.

TY for enjoying. And thank you for getting the joke about Northumberland calling and answering in the same. Hooray for Ohio calling back!

That pub destruction smells to high heaven imho.

Do read theDenmark thing. My jaw was on the ground about the fact that no one has been able to replicate the Dutch results. It was just so interesting what they were now saying.

The footie match should be okay. It is always pleasant when one of the national teams does well and the Lionesses have been a huge advert for women's sports in general.

Thank you for the congrats. I am pleased this book will be out in the wild as it were. I just have to finish the next one and then I can get back to the Murrow one. (Because Ed Murrow was one of Parkinson's heroes -- the BBC put several of the programmes he did in the 1950s on iplayer -- it was really interesting to watch and hear the 1930s being called the dirty thirties. Apparently back in 1940, the 40s were going to be the famished forties.

Always look forward to your comments JT.
