Not much happened in the UK today......?

I get the impression that it was a quiet day in the UK.  How do I know this? Well we are generally out of touch with things at home, but on a flight yesterday, I picked up the “Malay Times”, for a summary of the latest international news from the previous 24 hours.

Their London-based correspondent, after, no doubt, a meticulous survey of all possible newsworthy stories nationally, led with a story about how a dog in Exmouth, locked in a car on a hot day, had set off the car alarm. I think the dog was called “Sweaty.” He survived, thankfully.

Still, they sometimes say no news is good news.
