Wise before and after the event
So, Boris ‘bus-liar’ Johnson’s chief political strategist, Dominic Cumberbatch—or someone with access to the password for his blog, at least—has been caught retrospectively doctoring an old blog post to make himself look far more prescient than he really is.
That really is a very cheap trick. But it doesn’t surprise me one iota. In fact, I think you’ll find I saw this exact thing coming over a year ago, in February 2019.

Steady Mercury
Last night, I spotted the new crescent moon setting over Heptonstall, accompanied by Venus off to the far right. So I grabbed this photo…

Not bad for a 300mm telephoto lens hand-held at a ridiculously long ⅙ of a second.
