Andy Leslie @andyjl.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Word of the day: "malaphor" - a portmanteau of malapropism and metaphor, first coined by writer Lawrence Harrison in a 1976 article for the Washington Post. Examples include "Like taking cold to Newcastle", "It's not rocket surgery" and "We'll pass that water when we burn that bridge". 010

Andy Leslie @andyjl.bsky.social · 17/05/2026Two male Great Spotted Woodpeckers on our garden feeders today. The females have been about, less frequently. Given the overall frequency of visits, I reckon they're feeding at least one chick each. 020

Andy Leslie @andyjl.bsky.social · 16/05/2026I fail to see how two #Tesco fuel stations in more-or-less adjacent towns (Ammanford and Pontardawe) can justify an 8p a litre difference in price for #diesel, today. Tesco Ammanford 180.9p (that's bad enough) Testco Pontardawe 188.9p #FFS 000
