I have done some *really* sketchy stuff over the years to get things done. But this guy, no PPE, chainsaw chain doesn't stop when you release the handle, it merely slows down, a bit. Working it at eye level up a ladder. Nearly bounced himself off the ladder just now.

Done the bins, in Spain. Much better system here, take your bin bags about 50 meters, chuck it in a trade waste style bin. No worries about what colour bin, just lob it in.

Oh what’s this seismic event? Magnitude 3.4 but very shallow. Is it something other than an earthquake? Lots of infrastructure off the Lincolnshire coast.

Anti-migrant protesters target blind charity RNIB after mistaking it for RNLI

A blindness charity has been forced to tell anti-migrant protesters that it is “not the RNLI” after receiving a wave of criticism.

Protesters against the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI), which brought hundreds of migrants ashore this month after rescuing them from a small boat, have mistakenly hounded the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) online.

It has prompted the RNIB to correct the protesters. In an Instagram post accompanied by an illustration of a boat, the charity wrote: “Imagine being confused with the RNLI again. We don’t even own a boat.”

Trying to debug some battery issues with the EcoWorthy LiFePO4. My radio has started power-cycling on TX when it's on the battery. If I plug the radio into 12 V from the car, it is fine even on full power.

This👇is the biggest own goal in the history of British Politics by any Govt, in this case Labour Like tackling your own striker as he’s about to score. Dribbling the ball all the way back to your goal, and smashing it past your goalie They should’ve closed all loopholes and capped donations FGS 🤷‍♂️🙄
