Reading Careless People. Sarah left the UN to be Facebook’s first Global Public Policy Director (they didn’t have one, didn’t particularly want one, but she thought they needed one). It’s a really good read, but I can see Mark Zuckerberg might not like it - he doesn’t come over well…🙂

@alastaircampbell2.bsky.social “Elon bragged that he spent the weekend “feeding USAID into the wood chipper” The USAID website is dark. It’s staff locked out of emails. Its operations frozen. And millions of lives hang in the balance. “ Can Musk and Trump really do this by executive order?

Found the 1947 version of Miracle on 34th Street on an obscure channel (‘That’s Christmas’). Richard Attenborough is great in the remake, but Ed Gwynn embodies Santa, and Natalie Wood, in her third movie appearance, is perfect. If you can find it, it’s great - as is the 1994 version. 🎅🎅🙂

Just watched The Primose Railway Children, BBC’s adaptation of Jacqueline Wilson’s book ‘inspired by The Railway Children’ - in that there’s a railway near their cottage, and a direct copy of the tree on the rails sequence, and ‘daddy, my daddy’ (albeit in a different context).

In August a Liverpool library was set on fire in a fake-news fuelled riot, it's amazing how quickly & positively they've rebuilt. All library services can show their support on 12 Dec #ShareTheLight #SpellowLibrary #LibrariesChangeLives

After 4,500+ episodes, I have to say I’ll really miss Doctors, one of the most constantly innovative series on British TV. I just wonder if there’s enough space on iPlayer to put all the episodes from the beginning? www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b...

This is Ellerie, the daughter of a friend and former colleague, who is facing a major medical challenge. As they search for a medical trial or treatment to help her, they’ve set up a crowdfunder to raise funds. If you’d like to contribute, the link with more info is at gofund.me/58f2e0a6 🙂
