Oh lovely, Southern Water are ‘sorry’ but are leaving the clean up to volunteers!
Apparently yesterday they sent 3 voluntary junior employees without buckets down there! How do they get away with this again & again

ICE won’t stop with immigrants. They are Trump’s thugs

Next they’ll be coming for his critics

On my death bed, I imagine that I may regret not calling all the other places I slept up until then my "life beds."

An absolutely huge thank you to @stevemaythe1st.bsky.social who, armed with two pictures and a brief of "This is Kevin. He's a right bellend who loves barmaids, beer and boobs" has created this. I fucking love it! Thanks Steve!

The Boomtown Rats were the first band I really loved as an 8 year old & were the gateway for me discovering so much of the music that I love afterwards.
I know nobody thought they were cool, but music is personal.
I can't fucking wait for this tonight!
So there!
