I'm getting more of a Knights Who Say Ni! vibe from it.

Oooh. There's another account I used to enjoy and which I didn't realise existed over here.

I've heard of a performing arts venue on the south coast that uses "Elvis" as their codeword for "fire".

The all clear is "Elvis has left the building".

You wouldn't think it's possible to get a three letter name wrong, but I often sign off emails with 'Hwu'

I always fancied this type of thing. Probably still more portable and laptoppy than whatever the hell it is you've got there, but not by much.

You can probably read it if you go on holiday somewhere abroad. Might be a slightly stifled way of having a conversation, mind.

I'm still upset that the petition to change it to Gold by Spandau Ballet didn't get anywhere.

Presumably you've spoken to a bat rescue group about the bat itself? Maybe they'll know more about the process for getting a vaccine too? They might have done it themselves in the past.

TWO different bars on Formentera, within an hour of each other - and I heard @jyotimishra.bsky.social in each.

Is he just following me every time I go on holiday now?

Hurtling towards Málaga airport at 5am in a rather tired Toyota Corolla with the engine light on. Last thing I expected was to hear was Your Woman by @jyotimishra.bsky.social

Still a great tune.

I would absolutely go and watch Starlight Express performed in a phone box.

Remarkable how many of the patriots who've put the union flag up got it upside down.

The planning permission said they were going to build a shed, but they got carried away.

TV show idea: Strychnine Come Dancing

Contestants have to perform a dance routine despite uncontrollable muscle spasms from the lethal dose they were given by the producers beforehand.

The winner receives urgent medical care.

Ah, the 20 second Google journey from "Who?" to "Oh, that pillock".

"Now that is scientific fact. There's no real evidence for it, but it is scientific fact."

Huw Pritchard @hpchap.bsky.social · Jul 28

I was wondering that. I drive past it more or less monthly - and I've mulled over popping in but if I can't go up the tower then I'm just going to carry on to Tebay and fill up on nice food instead.

I've got used to my wife eating pizza, and even burgers with a knife and fork, but the other day she used cutlery to eat a poppadom.

"I went to Paris and did the sort of things that tourists do that piss Londoners off and people were clearly annoyed by it. French people are rude."

Change as you see fit for absolutely any large city worldwide.

They're reopening our local station, which was closed under Beeching. It's taken an incredible amount of time for what is, effectively, two prefabricated platforms.

I suspect what's been happening is that every time they build something they discover yet another old mine working nobody knew about.

Price guns and megaphones seem like the sort of things that you shouldn't be able to get hold of - like they're forbidden objects - but you can just go on the internet and there they are!

(One day I will break, and buy a megaphone for no good reason)

Isn't there normally someone looking after kings to make sure they don't - y'know - end up dead? You'd think they'd be wise to this, especially after the first time.

“a senior partner at HR consultancy firm Simmons HR & Talent Advisory, points out it can be difficult to rejoin the job market.”

Only if your entire employment system is barbaric. The rest of us stick our out of office on for a fortnight and just pick up from where we left it.
