Hello again and welcome back, my reading friend. Hopefully things are still going well in your corner of the Milky Way galaxy. Yours truly also dares to hope that this third and final part of the saga of our terrific trio will please you as much as the first two.

Yours truly must hereby and heretofore apologise for not having written, last month, any text directly involving the activities of the Canada Science and Technology Museum, in Ottawa, Ontario, a sister / brother institution of the dazzling Canada Aviation and Space Museum, also in Ottawa. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. Speaking (typing?) of fault, I also have a confession to make, my reading friend. To my great shame, I must admit that I do not have an ear for music. In my distant youth

The leaders of the 4 political parties represented in

Welcome aboard our special spatial ship, my reading friend. Five! Four! Three! Two! One! Thunderbirds are go! If you do not recognise the opening sequence of every episode of the British television series Thunderbirds, launched in September 1965, then there are serious gaps in your knowledge of the popular culture of the Cold War period. Period. And yes, that series was mentioned in September 2018 and March 2019 issues of our blog / bulletin / thingee. And yes again, yours truly remembers seeing
