As a sort of non sequitur: the last case of ‘Spanish flu’ was recorded in 1957. 👀

My 70+ friend in Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 had problems getting to see her GP so we told her about the 111 number and not only was she referred straight away to her GP but also a prescription she needed was delivered.

The buildings are still there but their use has changed many times over the years, mainly because a new set of shops were built to the left of the picture.
It has changed so much in the 50+ years since I left. It was a proper village when I first lived there in the early ‘60s but changed so much even whilst I grew up there.
The first picture shows the original pub and the second one shows the rebuilt pub.

Circa 1972 😎
The white building on the right was the fish & chip shop (recently opened after being the newsagent’s). To the left of that is the Post Office and then the pharmacy with the off-license next to that. Then there is the recently opened Co-op which moved from about half a mile away.

That’s the war memorial we’d sit and chat for hours. The Chinese takeaway was just off to the right. 😎

If I tell you I was a teen in the late ‘60s/early ‘70s you might get some sense of how old I am, that and dipping into my gran’s tin of Cadbury’s Lucky Numbers 👀😎😂

In my teens and twenties my friend and I would come out the local pub, pick up a Chinese takeaway from the local Chinese takeaway (always chicken curry and rice) and sit in the local war memorial and just talk for hours about stuff and nonsense and not remember any of it the following morning. Needless to say we had the same conversations over and over. 👀😎

I had quite a lot of discourse in my teens and twenties, mostly incomprehensible bollocks. 👀

There’s a rumour that Brit Pop band are getting back together to perform some stadium dates.
I’ve not seen or heard anything about it on the news media. 👀

The year is 3129. Humanity is extinct. The last LG SmartFridge is desperately emailing its last owner that they are low on orange juice.
The satellites still left, their orbits decaying, dutifully relay the message.
The automated "away from office" response turns on, as it always does, notifying the refrigerator that it's owner will likely return to the office in 3-5 business days.
A pack of roombas, the local wind turbines giving out, search for the next functional docking station.
A washing machine tweets: "anyone need to do a load” every Saturday at 1:30 a.m. eastern standard time.
The replies are filled with Al thirstposters and their hypebots.
In North America, raccoons have entered the bronze age, while babboons riding domesticated battlewolves rule most of Asia.
Unbeknownst to either, the octopi are mastering nuclear fusion.

The ‘normalisation’ of relations between Iran and the rest of the world is key to some sort of peace across the whole of the Middle East.
