That’s a worry …
I’ve just had a quick look at the BBC news site.
It seems a mosque in Quebec has been attacked.
With six killed, and eight injured.
Personally?
I think however tempting violence might be at times?
Attacking a mosque to show your support for Donald Trump’s travel ban?
Doesn’t count as as appropriated response!

On a more personal note?
I’ve managed to have a look at my kid sister’s laptop: as it’s been having problems.
And think I’ve worked out what the issue is.
Yep.
It’s a cheap PC …
With a dead battery …
I think she needs a new one …

But let’s move on.
Yesterday’s Teaser saw Olga* and Debbi† putting in their answers: with both scoring five out of five.

“There is delight in singing, though none hearBeside the singer.”Walter Savage Landor, 30 January 1775 – 17 September 1864.
And this song …
Have a good day …
* I think that’s always the way, Olga, when it comes down to regiments: I’ve got the impression you won’t get thanked for mentioning the Paras in parts of Belfast. I’ll have to keep an eye peeled when that books goes past, Olga: sounds like fine! (Let me know the titles, Olga!)
† What caught my eye, Debbi? Is that Google are recalling some of their staff, as a result. Apparently, Microsoft, Apple, Netflix and Facebook are also concerned: bit worrying for the economy‡. If Twitter starts complaining, he’s got issues …
‡ The only good thing is that me might just start using Linux as an alternative. Linus Torvalds will be seriously embarrassed: I don’t think he’s a Trump fan, either.

Having just watched a documentary on a great king of England, IOt is a pity that he lost the American colonies, they would be in a better state under the control of Queen Elizabeth II than the mad man President Fart.
