This page lists and links all posts roughly in chronological order (rather than by
posting date). Some posts recall people and experiences, others try to take a humorous view, and some are of the “look how the world has changed” kind. Essentially, I am interested in how Britain and the world have changed during the decades I have lived through, and the effects of what happened then upon the present day.
