The UK government right now. Why yes I did just send a lengthy email to my MP about it. It won't change anything but I said my piece I suppose.
A meme from the TV series Arrested Development:
1st panel: Australia did it
2nd panel: Well did it work for those people?
3rd panel: No, it never does. I mean these people somehow delude themselves into thinking it might. But..
4th panel: But it might work for us.

In other news, the BBC knows how dumb this looks, right? #VerticalVideo

Ah yes bin day, aka when the bin collectors make a mess of our street 🫠
A messy street scene with a silver car parked on the side. Rubbish, including containers and paper, is scattered on the pavement and grass, near haphazardly left bins.

Today an #Emirates #A380 took off from #Heathrow but, its landing gear doors got stuck open after the gear went up. It was put in holding for 2 hrs before returning to #LHR. Got some snaps of it in holding with all of its gear down. Best guess is that it put down to burn off more fuel for landing

Still on a #TfL theme, I knew about the graffiti issue on the #BakerlooLine but it seems to have bled into the #CentralLine as well. All three trains I was on today had carriages that were fully covered on the outside, and a crazy amount of tagging inside.

Came home to the best surprise today. @exmoorinfsharp.bsky.social "Come see what's happening upstairs" Me "is it that it's 33 degrees upstairs?" Her "it really isn't" She gone and sneakily treated us to an air con unit!

Looking at the #HistoricEngland listing for a building, and... I feel it just kind of referenced most of Britain?

Holy smokes, the @maryrosemuseum.bsky.social was hands down the best museum experience I've had in ages. We spent the better part of the day there & still didn't see everything. Do go, and do yourself a favour by getting the guided tour. And if you get Jane as your guide, you're in for a treat.

Emails that insist time is running out can get in the sea. I realise that is pretty much 99% of all marketing emails - comment stands! How bad do they want their comms to look like phishing emails?

A notice pinned up in a church that reads: 'Lead tile thief. Workman around the church after 6pm and before 8am? They are probably stealing our roof'. Beneath there is info for contacting the police.
