Ahoy!
I have been using @BobHarvey@twit.social, which is fine but is hosted in the USA.
I thought it would be sensible to try a UK based server to see what goes on in that sort of feed.
Many years ago I used Usenet uk.rec.sheds for social media, and the ethos of that newsgroup is still one I appreciate.
I live in Bourne, LIncolnshire, and my hobbies are mainly #Photography and #History. You can find my photos at https://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/8272
God save the king!

In response to this post@ChrisMayLA6 when I was young it was common to have 3 generations in a terraced 2up-2down. Lots of downside, but the love and security was obvious.
It was easy with those to switch the name on the rent book when someone died.

In response to this post@ChrisMayLA6
I am in favour. If there is room.
A large, multi-generational home is more stable, more resilient, and more stimulating for children. It gives confidence and security to the elderly.
But it can cause inheritance issues without planning. We need a style of homework ownership that can slide down the generations, and be portable to a different home

Indeed; some rethinking of how we 'manage' family life may be required; not impossible but certainly a challenge of some sort
