A BBC news article about Cotswold District Council may consider higher council tax bills on holiday homes:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/clevn77l7v4o
Article has a wow of a photograph at the top of the article.
Only trouble with that photo is that the village shown is not in the Cotswold District Council which is part of Gloucestershire. It's Castle Combe which, although in the Cotswolds, is in Wiltshire.
The building seen at the front of the photo on the left is The Old Court House

Thought so El
BBC news article about them repeating on BBC Four various literary adaptations they's made over the decades:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacen...s-season-of-classics
I mentioned one of them a few days ago "A Passage to India"
One of them is a 1961 version of Tolstoy's "Anna Karenina". That has Claire Bloom in the title role. Count Alexis Vronsky was played by a relatively unknown actor as the time - Sean Connery. This adaptation hasn't been shown on television since 1961 and had been thought lost.

Slim, although Petula Clark is much better known for her songs, she was in quite a number of films when she was a child including a small role in "I Know Where I'm Going" (1945). Some films when she had grown up, "The Card" was possibly her most significant adult role.

Good morning everyone 
Cloudy here and dry. Forecast to get rain from tomorrow which may cause flooding in places, heavy rain tomorrow evening and Thursday morning, rain on other days, some 40mm could accumulate by Friday. I think Met Office will be issuing warnings.
I hope everyone has a good day
