2019 before it all started ..... Dr @connorggbamford.bsky.social was aware of what could be coming. Our thanks go to the three virologists who served Northern Ireland well, Prof Ultan Power and Dr Lindsay Broadbent. #proudparents Belfast Telegraph, 27th February 2025.

EDITED - Wrongly described as Killynether House, this building is Conlig House, Little Clandeboye. This link tells the story of the house. 1970s, my photos. lordbelmontinnorthernireland.blogspot.com/2014/12/conl... and @niroads.bsky.social for fixing the colour in my previous post.

In 1972 the UK government introduced the tax free £10 Christmas bonus to be given to certain benefits beneficiaries including pensioners. Never been increased in 52 years by successive governments and with thanks, it has been credited to my bank account today. I've donated it to History Hub Ulster.
