Couple moved in next door. Old bloke lived there before had a beautiful garden. He spent every day in it. New guy ripped out everything & put fake grass in. So I've planted trees next to the boundary that will fill his lawn with dead leaves in the autumn. This one's for you Alf

Currently feeling the agony that only an Essex boy in his late fifties can truly understand as the DJ starts playing Spandau’s “Gold” just as the cab home arrives.

Every motorway service station should have a 5-a-side football pitch. The score should be continuous throughout the day with travellers swapping in and out via infinite subs.

I’ve often wondered why Nigel Farage, who as godfather of the Brexit fiasco engineered the biggest British foreign policy disaster since Suez is continually offered so much space in some newspapers and broadcast media. Serious question. Thoughts welcome.

Dolly Parton has sent my daughter a new book every month for years as she does for thousands of children. She help fund the development of the Covid vaccine. She’s not a billionaire. I think as non wealthy people it’s hard to even imagine how much billionaires *could* be doing with their money.

Another weird thing about London is that the taxi drivers who used to lecture me furiously about how immigrants were responsible for all the crime would move seamlessly to reminiscing, dewy-eyed, about the Krays.

One of the most urgent crises in the criminal justice system is that allegations of rape and serious sexual offending take five years to reach trial. Any politician who claims to care about sexual violence and is silent on this issue has another agenda.

6 days after Soviet troops invaded Czechoslovakia in 1968, a Prague paper published these “10 Commandments”: ‘When a Soviet soldier comes to you, YOU: 1. Don’t know 2. Don’t care 3. Don’t tell 4. Don’t have 5. Don’t know how to 6. Don’t give 7. Can’t do 8. Don’t sell 9. Don’t show 10. Do nothing’

This whole story is insane. Tesla apparently did everything it could to avoid providing the data it had about its Autopilot crash. This is just a snippet and there's a lot more. electrek.co/2025/08/04/t...

2019 – 2024 – Repeated denials and discovery stonewalling
Through years of communications with the police, the plaintiffs and the court through the investigation and later the discovery process for the lawsuit, Tesla never mentioned that it had all the data that explained how Autopilot saw the crash, which everyone was seeking, sitting on its servers for years.

The facts are:

Tesla had the data on its servers within minutes of the crash
When the police sought the data, Tesla redirected them toward other data
When the police sought Tesla’s help in extracting it from the computer, Tesla falsely claimed it was “corrupted”
Tesla invented an “auto-delete” feature that didn’t exist to try explain why it couldn’t originally find the data in the computer
When the plaintiffs asked for the data, Tesla said that it didn’t exist
Tesla only admitted to the existence of the data once presented with forensic evidence that it was created and transfered to its servers.

No, @london.gov.uk, this hasn't been fixed, it is still like this. Just saying it is fixed on the TfL Street Care portal doesn't make it thus.

Another day, another little erosion of space for people using the shared path on the @london.gov.uk managed #A12 in #Havering. A VMS sign pushing people closer to 50mph traffic when there is a huge verge in the central reserve where the sign wouldn't be in the bushes. Reported online.

A mobile VMS sign on a yellow trailer with orange barriers round it, half in a verge with bushes and half on a shared path with a dual carriageway immediately to the right.

The sign says in orange lit letters "23 June - Sep Gallows Corner Works A12/A127 closed use diversion" and that is partially obscured by bushes.
