5-2-6 seconds that, we will never forget His life was choked out * Thank you for reading. This is very self-explanatory. So, I won't mumble on and on as I usually do. With the Time Capsule Haiku Challenge in mind, I have been thinking of lots of different angles on the time theme. And when I was younger I used to think seconds were a lot shorter than they are. Really a lot can be achieved in just a few seconds.

Is Walking 500 Miles (And Then 500 Miles More) Really Romantic?. Top Story - February 2023.
I love The Proclaimers. Really, I do. Craig and Charlie Reid. They are Scottish. They are twins. They are fantastic singers, write beautiful pop songs, often with very pointed socio-political lyrics and have at least one bonafide end-of-party singalong anthem in "I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)".

Rewriting Roald Dahl's Works and Sensitivity Readers - Making Literature More Inclusive or Sanitising the Past?
There may not be a right or wrong answer to this debate, but it is one worth having. A number of online newspapers and digital magazines ran the same story, although I believe it first appeared in The Telegraph and I then read it in The Guardian and Rolling Stone. The story highlighted that there had been a variety of small, but actually significant changes to reprints of Roald Dahl's books to make them more inclusive and less offensive.
