Misanthrope, living in two places in Staffordshire. I don’t have a home. I just have two places where I sleep. I like dogs. I make things. One day I will finally catch up with #TheArchers
I knew Naismith’s rule. But it always seemed a bit obscure & convoluted. Mostly because of the 2000’ part. 10m is a contour line on an #OSMap

It’s Naismith’s Rule - 1 hour for every 3 miles (5km) on the flat plus an additional hour for every 2000 ft or 600 metres of ascent.
But in my head I just find it easier to remember 15 minutes per km and add 1 minute for every 10 metres ascent.

I’m not allowed to smoke in the flat. So I’ve just been out for a cigarette before bed. The sky is clear and the moon is looking glorious overhead. That description is better than any picture I could take.

I am watching a program about tanks. All the information is in metric. Which I don’t have a problem with. I can see how long & how wide they are. I understand how heavy they are. The one metric thing I haven’t got my head round is speed. I need to do that. I need to *get* Kmph.

Ricky Gervais was never funny and I don’t know how he got as big as he is. The older I get the more I realise I’m surrounded by fucking morons.
This guy used to be one of my heroes and his stuff now is woeful. Who is this for? Constantly trying to present as a dangerous provocateur, a truth spitter, if you're offended GET OUT but here he is flogging vodka with a lie about someone being offended by dogs? A 6yo yelling "poo bum willy!"

I had these two posts turn up in my timeline. Both quote posts by @rhianwilliams.bsky.social I know I should do alt text. I can’t. I’m too horrified.

I know it’s a #BYOBParty But I don’t care how much booze you’ve brought. Just leave it on the doorstep and go away. You’re not coming in.
Who the fuck would let you into their house dressed like… WTF are you even wearing?

Friend bought a set scales because she thinks her dog might be getting fat after her brother looked after him for the weekend & fed him too much human food. Getting him to sit on the scales…
You’re having a laugh
I know I weigh 80-82kg because we have industrial scales at work.

I love maps.
The latest version of BGS Geology 50K now covers the majority of Great Britain plus the Isle of Man, an estimated 236 000 km2.
This includes coverage for approximately 99% of the bedrock and approximately 95% of the superficial deposits across the country.

#MidsomerMurders Se01Ep04 about 43 minutes in there is a scene with a fancy multi CD player. If you pause you can see an ‘Oasis’ CD & a ‘Dr Feelgood’ CD
Barnaby moves the selector to the’Dr Feelgood’ CD & presses play.
Classical music of some sort plays.

Friend brought some #Morrisons mince pies and they’re a big pile of disappointment. Rubbish pastry. The filling was ok though.

I am watching #JohnWick & have Paddy sitting on my lap. Of course I’m fucking upset. And if I had the skills I would go on a completely reasonable murderous rampage.

Your standard tonic water is far too sweet. So don’t expect me to try your other versions.

Scottish fried meat products (Haggis, white pudding and another one which I forget the name of but it’s quite sweet), fried egg & fried bread. I bet my arteries are harder than yours.
