JOKE OF THE DAY
India is planning it’s third lunar mission: surely it’s time we put a stop to the ridiculous amount of money sent to countries who patently don’t need it. China, unbelievably, is another that benefits from David Cameron’s ridiculous ringfencing of financial support to prosperous nations, financial support that should be redirected to our NHS, schools and armed forces personnel. gts

How long is it going to take before heads of countries realise Australia needs help. Instead of sending your armies to war why don’t u send them to Australia to help them put out the bushfires. You talk of climate change, then do something about it. P Watson Leigh

my thoughts are with each and every Australian caught up in the raging bush fires with the firefighters

I wonder if the boss of the Lake District National park goes round with his eyes shut. Take any day in the summer and look at the diverse number of ethnic people around, from all nationalities, open your eyes and get out and about instead of sitting on office chair.

snowflakes about Mount Snowden: perhaps somebody should create a virtual 3d mountain climb for them, so the poor luvvies don’t have to suffer. Sull

Leave Snowdon to the Welsh! Let the tender snowflakes go somewhere else where there is no slope. Cry babies! CARLO WINDSOR

Traditional British condiments giving way to exotic, hot and spicy sauces. As with meals, it’s a good thing to try new flavours, but we must not forget our traditional favourites. A traditional British meal needs a traditional British condiment, for example, a cooked breakfast with either Tomato Ketchup or HP Sauce, or a roast beef dinner with Horseraddish Sauce.

12mnths last christmas day my aunt the last of my fathers and mothers families died at 89. I found last wk in the back of 1 of her family photos a note to me. It said, “Barrie if you have nothing nice to say don’t say anything at all, and the world will be a better place love Ada”. Perhaps that sentiment shd be practiced on text page in 2020 after the mayhem of brexit and the election of the last year. A much happier and civil new year to u all.
