Bad enough that America is enacting so much damaging policy in their own country. But aggressively pushing their agenda in our countries is unforgivable. If you want to keep your freedom of speech, use it - speak out against the US administration.

I guess I'd be 'Rubio del Cabo' in Spanish! Or 'Harfagr Nesbúð' in the Nordic. I like this game!

I love arepas! These guys have them on the menu, the real thing too - made from scratch with proper Venezuelan masa.

You're right, engaging directly is definitely what to do. And thanks! Lots of exciting things are happening in the real world right now.

The lady's job was far too important to allow her to laugh, but I think she had a hard time pretending she'd seen nothing! Definite signs of hidden mirth.

The funniest joke ever was when I was flying to Colombia and discovered at the check in desk that my brother in law had 'googlied' my passport pic!

... in 2025 we'll be able to offer six bursary placements on our voyages to young/disadvantaged musicians. I feel very lucky to work w tall ship Lady of Avenel, dozens of amazing communities across the coast of Scotland, and play music with a great and growing group of regular shipmates! (2/2)

It's why we often think music of the past was superior.
