A harsh denouncement, made by Archibald Gracie, a first-class passenger and another Titanic survivor, called him Hosono a “stowaway.” Japanese newspapers followed up quickly, criticizing Hosono publicly and blaming him for his deed.

Wish we could hold a match for T108 with Arsenal and Farnborough XI from THAT cup match.

God says these words after Adam and Eve eat the forbidden fruit from the tree of knowledge - “By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread, till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken”.

Must research Titanic passengers from Farnborough.

The couple moved to Hampshire from Salisbury, Wiltshire, possibly around 1909 and appear on the 1911 census living at 7 Dawson Cottages, Reading Road, Farnborough, Frank is absent and likely at sea. His wife is described as a nurse employed by the Soldiers' and Sailors' Families Association.

Frank Roberts initially signed on to the Titanic for the delivery trip from Belfast to Southampton. When he signed-on to the Titanic for the second time, on 6 April 1912, he gave his address as 7 Dawson's Cottages, Reading Road, (Farnborough, Hampshire). He had been transferred from the Olympic. As third butcher he received monthly wages of £4, 10s.

Roberts died in the sinking. His body was recovered by the Mackay-Bennett (#231) and he was buried at Fairview Lawn Cemetery, Halifax, Nova Scotia on 8 May 1912.

Interesting you say that. I have twice had dreams about the future that came true. Nothing major but stood out enough that I’ll never forget them.

Another thing. When I get deja vu i get it hard and I wonder how many times I’ve lived this moment.

Furlough is a grant not a loan so does not have to be repaid by the company, but companies with sufficient funds including rich football clubs are abusing the scheme. Hope HMRC claw back at later date.

A Whangamatā man says out-of-towners have been using the cover of darkness during lockdown to sneak into the beachside resort for the Easter break.

Where are the RED CROSS? Don’t they love a crisis?? Normally they would be jumping backwards for a crisis! Nobody has seen them, very telling.

Kaiwaka "the little town of lights" is a settlement in Northland, New Zealand. The Kaiwaka River runs from the east through the area and joins with the Wairau River to form the Otamatea River, which drains into the Kaipara Harbour. State Highway 1 passes through Kaiwaka. Wellsford is 20 km south, Brynderwyn is 8 km north and Whangarei the closest city, being 60 km (45 minutes drive) north. The Mangawhai Heads are 18 km north east.

Toplad was convinced that 1man started the momo challenge or whatever it was called, that video with the scary girls face telling children to do harmful things, Toplad was convinced! And I haven’t seen him around much since then, makes you wonder if he was right, wouldn’t be surprised to be honest.

The lockdown in Wales will be extended and not be lifted next week, the first minister has confirmed.

Mark Drakeford said there were signs people staying at home was "having an impact" but "the efforts we are making are not over yet".

His comments, on twitter, came after local government minister Julie James said the measures would be extended into next week.

Ms James was speaking at the Welsh Government's daily press conference.

Documents have been held in place by windscreen wipers and signed on a car bonnet in a novel way for wills to be witnessed during social distancing.

Signatures are also being watched through windows and patio doors as current restrictions make 200-year-old will writing laws difficult to uphold.

Ministers say there are no plans to relax the strict rules.

Solicitors are reporting a "massive rise" in demand for wills from people worried about coronavirus.

Failing to correctly sign a will in front of two independent witnesses, who are physically present, in England and Wales is likely to lead to a judge ruling the document, and any legacy in it, invalid.

Cyclone Harold impacts the Solomon Islands, Vanuatu and Fiji, killing at least 27 people.

I went to Boots pharmacy for medication yesterday and I saw dozens of people ignoring social distancing and standing in groups. It's infuriating to think that restrictions will be prolonged because some people STILL refuse to follow the rules!

Two of the UK's leading Jewish newspapers are to go into liquidation.

The Jewish Chronicle and Jewish News said they were not able to survive the impact of the coronavirus epidemic in their current form.

The boards of the papers, which announced plans to merge in February, said they expected the liquidation to be finalised in the coming weeks.

They said "every effort" would be made to continue publishing over this period.

The newspapers announced their plans "with great sadness" in similarly worded statements on Wednesday.

Wales' leading rugby players will take a 25% pay cut as the sport deals with the financial impact of coronavirus.

The Professional Rugby Board (PRB), representing the Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) and the four regions - Cardiff Blues, Dragons, Ospreys and Scarlets - reached the agreement with the Welsh Rugby Players' Association (WRPA).

The salary reduction, effective from 1 April, will last three months.

However, the cut will not apply to players earning £25,000 a year or less.

The prime minister remains in intensive care "where his condition is improving", Chancellor Rishi Sunak says.

"He has been sitting up in bed and engaging positively with the clinical team," he adds.
