Did anyone speakout, of any gender?

I'm old and still catching up... Do women want men to fight their verbal battles - this was kind of frowned upon in 80/90s gender learnings.

Look I think everyone in that room should be calling him out, but is pointing only at men what we are doing now?

What's up with iPlayer dropping a while run of new "just a minute" in one go...?

I miss those days of being able to register individual holes... These days it's just hole, with bits of grass for highlights

Was there an exact point in time that brunch places stopped putting ketchup on the table and instead started to take exactly as long to bring condiments as it takes for a bacon barm to go cold?

It's a nice thought... Sadly the pavement along there had been long sacrificed to cars.

But I'd assume in this case they'll get a drop kerb in like their neighbours. Expensive houses down there, they can easily afford it

Finally did a thing, these have been obstructing Sheepfoot Lane in Manchester for at least 3 years.

Started as a sand ramp giving access for builders then just became kind of permanent.

Reported to Bury Council and were removed within the month

Depressing comments demonstrating that most people trust that a daily mail headline is truth. Even the actual DM article refutes the headline.

HIGNFY ding sterling work to help Richard Osman monetise his hypocrisy this week.

The annoying thing about this is that I'm sure he could handle just getting callef out on it directly

Same quality repairs and an even bigger cafe.

When 30% of the daily average road injuries happen at the same time people seem to start to care about the damage cars can do

Statistically 50 other people were injured yesterday in the UK due to traffic related causes but they don't often get covered

Is allowing my tenant’s friend to stay temporarily a problem?

Reminded me of this rhyme my mum used to have on a plate in her guest bathroom (yes, I'm extremely middle class)

Watching the lad at this cafe filling sugar shakers with a teaspoon.

I want to introduce him to the concept of a funnel, but it's not my place and he's a great guy so ..

Dear scholars of Oxford, beware!
This window is pending repair.
Don't give it a poke,

Avoid it: don't even sit there.

14 years of Tories broke our systems and left the country in tatters.

But if that Starmer bloke so much as thinks of changing our systems everyone gets really mad, because we love our perfect systems that the Tories left us

And of course promote ebikes!

It was one good hill on my last commute made me make the switch to a motor and I love it

But most people don't want challenges on their commute.

We have to understand the landscape as it exists and attempt to route around it as well as across it where necessary. At the very least we need to accept their doubts and worries. 2/

Even if 'we' don't think it's much of a hill, those new to cycling definitely will. I've heard campaigners trot out lines about how rewarding hills are, or the benefits of climbing 1/
