Show Notes

On this week’s episode, Peter and Sarah look to the year ahead, as Peter wonders why this nation’s leaders and heads of the armed forces are rattling their sabres as they attempt to put the country on a war footing.

 

Plus, our duo on Conservatism (just what is it?) Christianity, the legacy of John Smith MP, the superiority of Japanese trains - any trains in comparison to our dilapidated ted rail network, and Custard Creams; all the colours of the rainbow.


On our reading and watch list this week: 

 

·               The Phoney Victory – Peter Hitchens

·               Winnie -The-Pooh – A. A. Milne

·               John Smith: Life and Soul of the Party - Gordon Brown & James Naughtie

·               Tokyo Express - Seicho Matsumoto
