This story has piqued my interest this morning. That the personal situation of one councillor can shut down the facilities of an entire council feels like a systemic fault.

Also BBC News is going hard to cover the "protester's" point of view in these pieces. "Flummoxed", "bizarre", "baffled", and "dangerous and confusing". All for things that will have gone through a public consultation and the council will have provided plenty of information about.

But more weird is this photo from the "campaign group" which contains a really grotesque twisting of BLM messaging saying "white lines matter" and maybe even more disturbing a cap with "POLICE" written on it.

It's not a UK police cap although I'm going to suggest that the person who owns it is definitely a problematic character. Probably owns his own handcuffs too...if you know what I mean...

Drivists in are losing their shit about the seafront because they say it's "not in keeping with the look of the Victorian seafront".

Unlike a load of parked cars!

My latest weekend adventure was to walk the Summit track in also known as 'the stairway to heaven'. My friend and I were aware that it was about 1000 steps (ie stairs) to the top, however we didn't realise it was a constant climb for about the first 800. A great let workout if that's what you're looking for! Helpfully someone had attached ear tags with the step count along the way, which was a good motivator. The veiw from the top was excellent.

Another up close & personal - this time torc from .

This is a buffer terminal - called such because, with flat end, it looks a bit like a train buffer. This torc is about 35mm diameter & 27mm high. It weighs 34g (so about 3 x £1 coins). The decoration is in lower relief than other torcs & it is generally more delicate.

But again, despite looks, this is a sturdy thing & you're surprised at weight in your hand.

The torc terminal which can be seen at the .

This has always puzzled folks as it appears to show Stage1/2 c.4thC BC motifs on the side, but later Stage V c.1stC BC motifs on the face. This has been assumed to be indicative of longevity of art styles...

... but what if the terminal is actually a cut down torus torc of / variety, remodelled in the later Iron Age?

I find the annual summer show to be a fascinating experience. They represent this unique facet of what it can mean to be British in rural England.
