I enjoyed watching the special celebration later last night. My highlight moment was the clip of three former presidents expressing their support of Biden and offering their help if he needed it.
Just a side note - didn't Jill Biden look so well turned out? She appears to be a very elegant woman and we know she's very intelligent.

I had to laugh at the news report last night when it mentioned the cleaners had been in the White House after Trump had left. No doubt a thorough deep clean or fumigation was required!
The cover of the current issue of TIME magazine, here in the USA, also deals with the mess left behind...

I know when I'm getting old when I think, 'Oh, i'll research that on-line' and when I get there can't remember what I was going to research!
Same as when I want to add something to my shopping list, get the mobile, go to the list and can't remember what I was going to add! There is just no hope!!!

To be honest yellowfacedviolet, Eve leaves more than of a mess than that for me to clear up, daily (or should that be hourly?!)

Much like the test and trace system samwiseg . Doing well with the vaccines I have to say though. I hope to get mine in the next 4 weeks *🤞* Arghhhh! The pages turned over, so that was in response to the 'World Beating' post by Sam.

Yes I'd be interested to see the discovery of witches too ffiscool is really my sort of thing that. Has anyone seen Carnival Row? I thought it was brilliant! Looking forward to hopefully the second series coming out this year

Its on Amazon if you have Prime. Not sure if it is on Netflix too you'll have to search for it ffiscool. Managed to get a free trial for 30 days but watched the whole of the first series in less than a week!!! What's it about ladybird, simply put: A fantasy/steam punk TV series of humans and fairies plus other creatures. Story based in a victorian era where xenophobia is rife in the city of the Burgh. Personally, I love fantasy stuff more than sci-fi and I thought the effects were really quite good. Plus if you are one for listening to movies with headphones the wing beats of the fairies are AMAZING!!! Stars Orlando Bloom and Cara Delvaigne
