Gosh, A.I can understand cricket now! I gave @NotebookLM the result of the 1st Test, prompted it to explain how the 8 wickets was calculated, and the infographic produced was impressive. A great way to explain cricket, what does @MitchamCC think?
New blog post: 26 St. Marks Road, originally called Home Close, became the Royal British Legion Mitcham Branch HQ in 1931. It was extended in 1948 by members, who built it in their spare time. mitchamhistorynotes.com/2025/11/19/26-…

I've been wanting to tell the story of the menagerie at the Skinners Arms, Beddington Corner, for ages - but didn't have any photos. Now @NotebookLM can make an anime style video from any source, so I've used that for my video (w/edited images & my voice) youtu.be/eyXkopM6ceg

New video about Ravensbury Manor House, a stately home demolished after just 20 years! youtu.be/nFdcew_HS04
I've made a long (18 minutes) 'desk-based' video of the architecture of Vestry Hall, following on from the History Nugget I presented at the @MitchamCrktGrn meeting in July, at which I forgot this photo which shows the pink Shawk limestone at an entrance. youtu.be/rJafYmhXBn4
The Windmill pub goes up for auction as the receivers move in on the bankrupt owners - guide price £195,000 Good thing we had it registered as an Asset of Community Value by @Merton_Council meaning there's a six month window before it can be sold bidx1.com/en/en-gb/aucti…
You'll probably hate the music, but I've made a video of my photos of the ICL 2904 at Downs surgical in Mitcham. It was installed in 1978, replacing a Honeywell 200 and 716. youtu.be/8xJu9po10_s?si…
The Last Night at the Sample Room at the former Youngs Brewery in Wandsworth. John Hatch, former Youngs brewer, kept brewing beer every week since the brewery closed in 2006. In this video from 7th August 2014, he tells of the closing of the sample room youtu.be/mTRDuLQYmno

In 1935 a girl wrote of her summer: "Very soon after we broke up I went to Mitcham for a week and did I enjoy myself? I should say so. I went out on the common every day ...." Using A.I. I've turned this into a pleasant song:- youtu.be/jqUEjVyQEqs @SunoMusic @ChatGPTapp
