Extreme Long shot but, if anyone visited the Permanent Exhibition at the National Museum of Finland between 1995-2016 and has any pictures of the interpretation panels/display/presentation of the Suontaka sword then I'd be extremely grateful for copies!

Many thanks!

Fare dodgers targeted as train ticket refund rules are tightened In a bid to clamp down on ticket fraud that costs the railways millions each year, the government has quietly changed the rules on claiming refunds for unused train tickets.

DON'T BUY TRAIN TICKETS IN ADVANCE!
On 1 April, the government is quietly changing the rules.
Off-Peak & Anytime tickets become non-refundable after 23:59 the day BEFORE you travel.
If you wake up & find your event cancelled, NO REFUNDS, even on Β£100+ tickets.

Imagine being fresh out of a by-election where your party loses by 5000 votes to the @greenparty.org.uk and your take away from it is β€˜war, we haven’t gotten into enough wars, this is what the people want’ πŸ™ƒπŸ€‘

This was one outside the #FitzwilliamMuseum last week. Very tame and eating people’s sandwiches! But it looked like it had a poorly leg 😒

I’ve had two messages today asking me to do things with no β€˜please’ and I’m full of rage.

Loved β€˜Dry Bits’ by Imogen Ashby @sheffieldtheatres.bsky.social - very much enjoyed wearing my menopausal crown while laughing and dancing and sweating and forgetting through the rage. Do go and see it if/when it’s shown again.

On the day Keir Starmer U-turns on cancelling local May elections, here's a reminder to register to vote!

To be clear, Sheffield elections weren't cancelled. But now all local elections are back on, so let's make sure everyone eligible to vote has a voice.

β€˜Am I at peak popularity? I hope not’: on the road with Zack Polanski, from protest to podcast to Heaven nightclub With polls and membership at an all-time high, the Green party are having a moment – and it’s largely down to their charismatic (if slightly cheesy) new leader. Can he really pull off a socialist revolution?

Always an exciting moment when we see les grues (the cranes) flying north over our part of France… a sign that spring is on the way.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

It’s so tawdry, grubby and shameful. I can’t stand the sleaze, greed, corruption. Trump, Epstein, Russia, Bannon, Palantir, Israel, Mandelson, Brexit, discredited royals, aging male hacks, hasbeens, wannabes. Old white men abusing young women, exploiting their status, corrupting our entire system. 🧡

It's rare to see how lobbyists operate. But the Epstein-Mandelson correspondence shows us what happens all the time: plutocrats and government ministers conspiring against the public interest. This is why all lobbying should be in the public domain, but despite Labour and Con promises, it's not. 🧡
