Hey @bsky.app what's going on? You appear to have burned over 5GB of my data in a couple of hours today and I'm now being billed close on £100 for that. And it's background data you're using, so it's not me browsing and playing videos, etc. Very unimpressed. What are you going to do about it?
Data usage peak of over 5GB today thanks to Bluesky Phone app usage shows data usage over 6GB by Bluesky Text from BT telling how much (so far) this month I'm going to be billed for busting my data package (thanks to Bluesky background data consumption today) Text from BT alerting me to excessive data usage

If you see this, post an album cover with a vehicle on it.

Quote with a 10/10 album.
The album cover of the band October Project, their 1st, eponymously named. Shows a child by a roadside in a very basic Halloween costume where the mask is a paper bag over their head with eyes, nose and mouth cut out. The whole scene is sepia and autumnal in character.

I just noticed that June Lockhart died just over a week ago having reached 100 last June. Definitely a 1960s icon for my age group....

Had a day out in that there London. Managed not to disgrace myself. You can hear me on BBC R4 on Sunday the 4th of January '26. I'm guessing it'll be sometime in the afternoon.

A lovely #Bluesky day so the laundry is done and out on the line on what is probably one of the last possible days this year.

Laundry drying in the sunshine in a rotary washing line. Laundry includes 3 pairs of Den Loungewear underwear and a white t-shirt with Snoopy's pal Woodstock, the yellow bird, dragging a guitar. In the background, a large apple tree with lots of ripe apples on it, and windfalls on the ground underneath.

That's my 3rd run of week 2 of #CouchTo5k done. 7 weeks to go!
Heart rate throughout my run. Well, being Couch to 5k week 2, it's a 5 min walk, then 90 seconds run 2 mins walk, repeating the run/walk, until 6 runs completed, then another 5 kin walk after the 6th run. So 29 minutes in all of which 9 minutes are running. Pace during my 3rd run of week 2 of couch to 5k. The peaks are the six 90 second runs, the remainder is walking. 29 minutes in total of which 9 minutes is running. 3rd run of week 2 of couch to 5k.
