I mean surely we should be involved? Involved in unremitting condemnation.

Our Auk indoor herb system was planted on Christmas Day. So far, so good.

Why are the pubs I never go to closing? Why is that useful-looking shop I never buy anything from closed down?

So today I find that Macc FC puts out cones along the road to reserve roadside parking. And the locals are moving them to stop antisocial parking.

Yes, the city needs to actually repave streets. Yes, the city needs to repair sidewalks. Yes, the city needs to install curb ramps.

But the bigger problem is that when LA decides to do anything at all to "help" pedestrians, the result looks like this complete and utter bullshit

Letter sent to local Councillor about the appalling lack of a safe pedestrian crossing point by the hospital. CEC hasn't bothered to repaint the H bars denoting the only adjacent dropped kerbs anywhere near the hospital.

Three roe deer crossing the lane into my woods this morning. I have occasionally seen the odd one on a trail camera but never with my own eyes.

In many ways it's been a gloomy year in the World. Please cheer me up with some positive things that have happened as the year draws to a close.

Well said Zack. I trust when you get into power you're going to introduce a national active travel, road building standard that provides safe, segregated environments that allows people who aren't driving to travel well away from drivers?

Lots of bus stops with no shelter or seats (or buses). Not convinced this is the right priority.

I see there’s a post about microplastics going around with a photo of drinking straws, so here is my semi-regular reminder that the 3 biggest sources of microplastics are tires (45%), synthetic clothing particles (35%) and paint (~10%).
Lay article attached:
