teawithflorence.bsky.social @teawithflorence.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Why is the Guardian promoting bulk purchasing from Amazon? Time was when they would have advocated a boycott. I often wonder if I did the right thing giving up my Guardian subscription and switching to Byline Times- this sort of article confirms to me I did. 020

teawithflorence.bsky.social @teawithflorence.bsky.social · 06/10/2026This is the best thing about knitting, or crochet in my case - I like 3 or 4 but they're a different vibe to 1 and 2 so it depends what you had on your head, or perhaps it'll have to be 2 squares a month and 2 blankets! 120

How he has the brass neck to bring this up when he so clearly didn't manage the situation when he had the chance... And I will never forgive him for how little he did over covid.

teawithflorence.bsky.social @teawithflorence.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Nope. Any misogyny is unforgiveable, we don't have to resort to it. I intensely dislike her choice to enable that man and the manner in which she chose to do it. What she does is lie and deny. She didn't have to do that job so enthusiastically. She's intelligent & could have put that to better use. 000

teawithflorence.bsky.social @teawithflorence.bsky.social · 25/09/2026The seats in my grande picasso were the most comfortable car seats I've ever sat in. 16 hour drive through France and no back problems.

teawithflorence.bsky.social @teawithflorence.bsky.social · 25/09/2026We gave to pregnant stepdaughter who needed a ULEZ compatible car (it was) to visit us across borough boundary. So we got an EV. Which is nice, and accelerates, but still miss old Picasso who served her well too til she went EV also. We saw our old Picasso advertised for sale in Yorks, still going. 110
teawithflorence.bsky.social @teawithflorence.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Oh! 🥹I loved my Citroen Grande Picasso, not really a car person never loved a car like that one, got it when kids were little, perfect for lugging.Flat boot-space held bag of footballs, medical kit, cones.Daughter sat on open back to change her muddy boots. Moved older kids' houses all over... 110
teawithflorence.bsky.social @teawithflorence.bsky.social · 25/09/2026This is so important. Unaware or don't care? Palantir already has its claws firmly dug into the UK. Thanks to successive naive - or perhaps actively colluding?- UK Gov depts and leadership 000
teawithflorence.bsky.social @teawithflorence.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Then picked up by all the other lazy media as if it was THE main talking point 020
teawithflorence.bsky.social @teawithflorence.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Exactly. And the Telegraph currently running not much else but Reform talking points - it's entirely circular 140
teawithflorence.bsky.social @teawithflorence.bsky.social · 25/09/2026So thats all Osbourne's got is it? Corporate sponsorship from some of the dodgiest corporates in the world? Or the museum wouldn't be free entry and would have to close? A former chancellor has no other ideas? Perhaps someone who actually knows about running museums should be given the opportunity 010

teawithflorence.bsky.social @teawithflorence.bsky.social · 20/09/2026You're absolutely right. It is utterly emblematic. That's why this won't win many people over. Coastal communities will have none of it, and the rest of us either love the coast, holiday there, understand the importance of volunteers in any community, or just think the RNLI are the best of us. 171

Hopefully it was to answer an audience question about why we should vote for a party/company that's losing a councillor every THREE days. Isn't it a wasted vote? 010
teawithflorence.bsky.social @teawithflorence.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Oh the old politics of envy chestnut. No. We just worked out how much these arseholes get rich off the back of ordinary people, help each other get richer, refuse to pay taxes, live the highlife elsewhere and expect to be able to comment on the shitty country they've left behind for us to endure. 150
