I broke two ribs almost exactly four weeks ago, and today is the first time I can lie in bed on my side 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Small gains 🦴💪🏻❤️

Apologies for lack of ‘alt text’ only I’ll only get the names wrong 🤦‍♀️ 🍄‍🟫🍄❤️

Tomorrow is a hugely important day.

At 4pm, the UK Covid-19 Inquiry will publish its report into the UK’s pandemic decision-making & political governance.

I dearly hope our political leaders & decision-makers will listen, learn &, above all, act on the findings.

Because there will be a next time.

@dieworkwear.bsky.social I think Princess Anne deserves some credit for rocking the same safari suit 53 years later 💪🏻 🤣

No Wes Streeting, the BMA is not acting like a cartel. It’s acting like a trade union. And frankly it’s disgusting to hear you talk like this while huge numbers of doctors can’t get NHS jobs because you haven’t created them, while millions of patients are on waiting lists🚨🚨🚨

Typhoon FUNG-WONG is heading to the Philippines as the equivalent of a major Atlantic hurricane.
What’s really stands out is its immense eye. At one point today its eye spanned ~70 miles - about the distance from Tampa to Orlando. Picture an eye like that spanning the state!… 1/

I came off my bike on Monday and fractured two ribs and bruised myself badly. I walked Parkrun today with a lovely tail walker, and a friend who is getting over a knee operation. Parkrun is such a great organisation for mental health. So lovely to get up and out #parkrun

Double fraud - first the PPE deal was dud stuff and corrupt, now they’ve defaulted on paying taxes — but still the right kind of person to sit in the House of Lords, apparently. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Great video 💪🏻 #bikeisbest
73% of Copenhageners don’t own a car, and the city has made huge strides reclaiming public space for people that had been previously surrendered to cars. Now candidates in the upcoming city election want to prioritize “car storage” again. Not surprisingly, @colville-andersen.com isn’t holding back.

Well done the Netherlands 🇳🇱💪🏻❤️
🚨Wow - this will be huge if it bears out. Exit polls show the pro-EU D66 party has WON the Dutch election.

The far-right PVV party of Geeet Wildsrs has lost 12 seats, according to exit polls.

Huge if true.

We were on the way to Parkrun this morning discussing the fact that Mum & Dad (Strava & Garmin) aren’t getting divorced after all.

We were speculating which one is mum, and which one is dad.

Garmin definitely came out as dad! In and out, no after activity nurturing / caring 🤣. Any other thoughts?

Gonna put the towel rails and under floor heating on 😜
