I'll leave it at that, but week after week, we are producing stories like this that can take months to come to fruition, that no-one else is covering and set the news agenda for the week! Like this one by Venetia Menzies thetimes.com/article/7ad460…

To live for as long as she did, researchers believe she must have been cared for by several others. They say the findings seem to give a new glimpse of how our now-extinct sister species, the Neanderthals, supported one another. (£)thetimes.com/uk/science/art… By Rhys Blakely

The “good old days” were much harder. In 1865 the average British worker worked 124,000 hours over their life (like the US & Japan). In 1980, only 69,000 hours, despite living longer. Since then, it dropped slower, by 6%. We went from spending 50% of our lives working to 20%!
