Saw these old Kwik Fit and Do-It-All commercials on You Tube yesterday. An annoyingly catchy tunes sung by jolly workmen. Alas Smith & Jones did an excellent spoof of these types of commercials and even got Daniel Peacock from the Do-It-All ad! Chef's kiss!

RIP Bonnie Greer, novelist, broadcaster and truely inspiration woman. She was a great supporter of the Womensart project and the WA books and I'll cherish our chats forever. A true intellectual & beautiful person. xx

A uniquely preserved timber structure dating back to the Iron Age has been discovered on the banks of the River Main, Aschaffenburg. Found by construction workers in a rainwater overflow basin near the Willigis Bridge,the timbers were originally part of a larger stone wall system

Around 510-500 BC, an Athenian vase painter placed a small scene at the center of a wine cup: a dog scratching its ear with its hind leg. No gods, no heroes, no battle lines. Just an itch. It's an Attic red-figure stemless cup, currently housed at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford and displayed in Gallery 16 on the Ground Floor. Made in Athens, it was likely intended for the world of the symposium: a broad, shallow wine cup held by reclining drinkers and repeatedly raised throughout the evening. The painter was an anonymous artist scholars call the Euergides Painter. His name is a modern convention derived from Euergides, the potter who crafted the cups he decorated. Active around 515-500 BC, the artist worked during the years when the red-figure technique was beginning to replace black-figure vase painting. Let's look at the dog: its slender body, pointed snout, long tail, elegant legs, and ears resemble the hunting dogs ancient writers associated with Laconia or Sparta. Writing in the 4th century BC, Xenophon describes the ideal hunting dog in terms of speed, proportion, strength, a keen nose, and a long tail; I believe these qualities perfectly match the one on this cup. What makes this choice particularly striking is its modesty. During the same period, painters like Euphronios and Euthymides were experimenting with the new red-figure style using bold anatomy, movement, perspective, and ambitious scenes. Euthymides even boasted on one vase that his work was 'much better than Euphronios's.' Here, the Euergides Painter reduces the drama to a hound and an itch.

Brutal.

Nice cool morning in #Bristol

I got thrown out of Liz Truss's far right CPAC conference. I posed as a reporter for Patriot News, and found they weren't very keen on free speech.

I visited Camp Beagle in Huntingdon, where beagles are bred and kept in tiny cages. They have no access to outdoor space and are subjected to cruel experiments. These outdated practices must end and be replaced by modern, reliable methods.

Not seen this one before. Hilarious youtu.be/G01zbtj_VMg?si=69LL…
