Human, just about. The only things that keep me sane are: music, motorsport, snow sports, craft beer & cheese. Never been nibbled to death by an okapi. I block stupid people & bigots.

Good series, but a huge red flag is literally every single scam is based around #Meta products, #Facebook and #WhatsApp.

So the original post for ##DavidsMonthOfMusic seems to have weirdly been deleted, making everyone's posts lose context and some of us not having the calendar :-(. So here it is.

Dear #BBCNews, going for clickbait again with the "COVID like measures" is absolutely pathetic.

What you are describing, sanitisation stations, is just good hygiene practice and should be part of schools all the time, not just how, not just in winter, all the time...

Day 8, a song with You, Me or Us in the title.

I guess most people will go with a love song, which I guess where the topic naturally leads, so let's go in a different direction than that.

Dec 7: A Song From 2013.

I loved the original incarnation of #HeavensBasement

This version, released 2013, was written by the original band but recorded by a later incarnation, it's a great great track still but lost some of the punch.

Dec 6: Another Favorite Song. Let's go with #ABBA Tiger from their fantastic arrival album. This used to be on a lot in our household growing up, and as a teenage boy, i definitely didn't have the hots for Agnetha. :-)

Day 5, s song with a number in the title. This always troubled me that the original version, the colour wasn't specified. It's very un German to leave details like that out!

Unfashionably late to the party on this, so let's sneak Day 4 in before the day is out. I'm a huge fan of #theinterrupters so let's start there.

Perhaps the #BBC #SkyNewa and others should be investigated, as the document wasn't *published* early, it was *uploaded* early, and the journos #hacked the website to access it.

Well that was depressing.Went #EV shopping today, none of the cars were suitable, all too small :-(

Tried: @hyundaiuk.bsky.social #Hyundai Ionic 5, Ionic 9, #Peugoet 3008 and 5008

Too small to even safely test drive. Aren't EV's SUPPOSED to be more spacious?? Sticking with my Diesel #Kia Sportage
