We were watching a programme about the Winter of 1947 (UK) yesterday.
War exhausted Britain, food rations, no central heating, 55 days of constant snow, 20 foot snow drifts, minus 21 temperature, coal shortages, electricity cuts,.
Then the worst floods ever as the snow melted, then high damaging winds.
I wonder how we would cope with that.
I hope we never have to find out.

I'd never seen the 2009 film Nativity.
It was on the BBC last week so we caught up with it on Friday.
I really enjoyed it, the songs were catchy. It was young and predictable and all the rest of it, but the audio-description was my preferred type, less being more and with well-timed updates avoiding cutting through any unheard song lyrics.
Old now, but one to enjoy over the festive period.
The Blossoming Lamp is an awesome lampshade consisting of 14 interlocking pieces printed at once. Print in place and supportless to boot! When you pull up on the top the flower opens allowing more light out.makerworld.com
As someone whose never got on with open offices I endorse this message.

1994… Debacle because of the Compuserve GIF format uncertainties regarding Unisys and LZW Patent enforcement… I remember trying to understand in Web agencies if we should convert our GIFs to JPEG.
That led in fine to the creation of PNG at W3C in 1996.

Just to add to the injustice of locking up Just Stop Oil protesters now one of them is being recalled to prison because despite being eligible to serve her sentence while be monitored, the private company is unable to provide a suitable electronic tag.... & have notified authorities that she needs to be rearrested.
It is a case study in disproportionate 'justice' & reflects badly on all those who've not agreed a doorstep probation that was fine on remand!

This is why it is essential to check for correct implementations according to the spec first and then verify using assistive technologies. If you follow the spec, you do not run into these cases where assistive technologies try to repair broken code to ensure access.

Happy Birthday to Wendy Padbury.
I started watching Doctor Who during the Troughton era and I remember Wendy's introduction as 'new' companion, Zoe Heriot, like it was yesterday. While I missed Victoria (Deborah Watling) when she left, I very quickly took to Zoe.
