Jag begav mig ut till Österlen igår för min andra surflektion någonsin, bara 9 år efter min första i Cornwall. Här är en väldigt selektiv bild av hur det gick. #surf #surfing #surfning

@malveus Just ja, sen hittade jag otippat en tysk kondenserad havremjölk i min lokala asiatiska butik nyligen. Den var rätt billig, faktiskt, men jag vet ju inte hur lätt den är att hitta

@nemorosa This is still the case for both UK and US keyboard layouts. I think the Scandinavian layouts had to give it up to make room for ÅÄÖ, though I don't know how common it is in other variants.

Nivåerna av dubbeltänk är helt astronomiska.

”SVT är oberoende – det är en av våra grundpelare. Vi tar inte politisk ställning”, skriver SVT:s vd Anne Lagercrantz i en skriftlig kommentar till SVT:s Kulturnyheterna.

I ett mejl till TT skriver SVT:s vd Hanna Stjärne att "EBU måste tänka om":

"Jag sympatiserar med grundtanken kring Eurovision som ett opolitiskt evenemang. Men situationen i Europa är extremt allvarlig, med Rysslands invasion av Ukraina. Det passerar alla gränser. Vi har uppmanat EBU att ändra sig och kommer att följa utvecklingen noga", skriver hon.

Självklart kan SVT inte ta politisk ställning, det vore ju helt bisarrt! #eurovision

Day 17: Premium Matcha Chiran Green Tea Citrusy fragrance, but not a super standout flavour. I was a bit rushed on this one and didn't sift it, which probably didn't help it as it was pretty lumpy out of the satchel. #AdventTea #Tea #Matcha
