What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Predictions 2025

    1. Good results for Nigel Farage following the English local elections in May. Terrible results for Conservative Party.
    2. No progress towards the marriage of same-sex couples in the Church of England
    3. Turbulent year for WordPress, which powers about half of the internet.
    4. 2025 will be the hottest year on record.
    5. No trade deal for UK with US. Increasing talk of re-aligning economy closer to EU.
    6. Ceasefire in Russia-Ukraine war but no long term solution.
    7. “Assisted Dying” aka doctor assisted suicide becomes legal in at least one of the jurisdictions of the British Isles.

    Yes – full marks – the BCP in Esperanto.

    Something for a Sunday evening, I think.

    By the way, Kelvin – does your site have an RSS/Atom feed?

    RSS feed
    I do have an rss feed, though the architecture of this site is a little creaky and you might have to resort to forgiving it sometimes.

    The feed is at http://www.thurible.net/backend.php though it is likely to move sometime when I move this site over to WordPress, something that I have been intending to do for a while.

    A sermon preached on 14 November 2021 We live in precedented times. Oh yes, I know what everyone has been saying for the best part of the last two years.
