I'm no tax expert or economist, but when I visited Rome, and had to fork out a few euros when we got there as a tourist tax, it hardly stopped me visiting Rome...

Unless there's an unbreakably valid safety reason why not, all button-operated pedestrian crossings should activate the lights in pedestrians' favour instantly when pressed.

Posting old halloween comics, #4. From 2015
![For this comic you have to imagine it as two separate pictures depicting almost identical scenes. There are three kids dressed as a devil, a ghost and a witch, and they are outside a person’s home receiving treats on a tray from the resident. In the background, their parents - parent 1, parent 2 and parent 3, watch on from the pavement. There are labels pointing to every person in each scene.
HALLOWEEN IN AMERICA
[Labels]:
Joyful [a person at a cosy party seen through the window of the house]
Ebullient [Another person at the party, we see them laughing through the window]
Charmed [A fully dracula-costumed guy handing out trates at the front door]
Home made skull cookies and lemonade [The contents of the man’s tray he is handing out to the kids]
Delighted [The first kid on the path, dressed as a devil]
Excited [The second kid on the path, dressed as a ghost]
Enraptured [The third kid on the path, dressed as a witch]
Emotional [Parent 1, stood back on the pavement, beaming in joy]
Proud [Parent 2, clasping their hands, tearful]
Capturing the moment [Parent 3, taking a photo on their phone]
HALLOWEEN IN BRITRIN
[The same sort of scene, but in Britain]
[Labels]:
Angry [A dog barking out the window. There is no party going on in the house. Through the window we see a woman just wtching telly]
Offended [The woman having her TV show interrupted]
Resentful [Guy dressed in normal clothes, grumpily handing out ‘treats’ on a tray at the door]
2 Celebrations and a Rennie [The contents of his tray]
Disappointed [Child 1]
Awkward [Child 2]
Awkward [Child 3]
Awkward [Parent 1, standing with arms folded]
Mortified [Parent 2, looking embarassed]
Checking for paedophiles [Parent 3, looking suspiciously at the guy answering the door]

My favourite objection to a cycle hanger was the "Poor Feng Shui" one, sub'd to Brent Council in Jan 2020.
The cycle hanger was installed.

I am becoming convinced that autonomous vehicles are designed to solve the problem of "I live in a wealthy suburb but have a horrible car commute and don't want to drive anymore but also hate trains and buses and refuse to ride a bike."

Flags went up in Stirchley a few days ago & were taken down by local residents the same evening.
The men returned with a cherry picker and coned off parts of the road with police accompanying them as they put up new flags along the High Street.
Residents who object have been met with verbal abuse.

Big sigh. Watch this.
Can you see why the Yankees’ moment of silence, the lowered flags, the promise of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, feel like a gut punch to the very people he spent years targeting?
No one wished death on this man, but what we’re seeing right now is too f*cking much.

Making enquiries about terracotta solar panels as a viable option for road facing roof pitches in the BVT... Sadly the coloured glass takes 20% out of the generation potential..
But it's something...
