Listen, we all know it's a long shot, but:

Does anyone have a motorbike I could use for a couple of months?

November - December

It's entirely the wrong amount of time to buy/rent/lease one for so, on the off chance that someone has one just sitting around, could I borrow it?

Feel free to RT x

Greta Thunberg has just been released and she is back on the warpath, exactly like our leaders should be.

Israel will never silence her or the billions who oppose them.

Greta Thunberg “I'm not scared of Israel. I’m scared of a world that has seemingly lost all sense of humanity.”

Stand with Greta, stand with humanity.

A long overdue return to Hoopla to see the absolute fantastic double bill of Hell Yeah Improv and a Patti Stiles impro supergroup in "Surprise".

That was a damn good night.

Cat Mac @catherinemac.bsky.social · 9d

Excellent!

One of my favourite photos of the kittens. About 4/5 months old here, I think.

They were only a couple of weeks apart in age but Fudge always looked tiny in comparison.

Jasper had an obsession with balloons. He'd often grab the string in his mouth and parade around the house with "his" balloon.

Does... does Keir actually hate the Working Class? Why is he even in the Labour Party at all?

If he's too scared to be a Tory, he could try the Lib Dems?

Running around town flirting with the far right then crushing working people's rights. What a legacy.

Too toxic for the Tories? Don't worry, Labour will do it. www.theguardian.com/money/2025/o...

United considering playing friendlies in Saudi Arabia is so fucking depressing.

Just maybe think about going somewhere without so many human rights abuses? Granted it feels like that list of countries is shrinking by the day.

Saw that lineup announced and obviously bought a ticket immediately.

Patti is also at the Comedy Store tonight with the excellent Comedy Store Players so you should get down there if you can, it's going to be a great night.

Cat Mac @catherinemac.bsky.social · 14d

It was everything I wanted it to be. No spoilers as the show is still touring.

Diolch yn fawr, bois bach.

Elis summing up the Pembrokeshire portion of my childhood in a single sentence.

Oakwood was a special (and rare) treat.

So, last night's Taskmaster episode went straight into Top 5 of all time. Absolutely superb grouping of tasks.

The mascot task I spotted the potential issue immediately but that was addressed and nobody seemed bothered.

Still hoping for a bit more angry Reece. Still time...
