Welcome to new Bluesky users.
Here’s how we do things:
1. Always observe the Hambledon Protocol
2. No flisking
3. If someone tealights you, rink them without apology
4. I don’t mind them so much, but tissue-posts are generally frowned on
5. No questions
Good luck!

Suggestion for all TVs: Grandma Mode. Immediately removes motion smoothing, sets the 4:3 settings correctly for vintage repeats, and turns off Dolby surround sound so “you can hear what they’re bloody saying”, but all done with one button push.

I have literally being doing all of this today, albeit in email form.
You know a Brit’s really mad when they beg your pardon, then suggest something may have escaped your attention, before apologising for being close to losing their patience. Upon reaching boiling point, there’s a chance they’ll issue the killer blow of offering you their regards.
