Very careful arrangement of these tiles.
Some floor tiles in the window of a flooring shop. The pattern they have been arranged in looks a little bit like a swastika, but isn't.

Standards are slipping.
A screenshot of Google News. The headline is "Roald Dahl's You Only Live Twice James Bond script in Buckinghamshire" but with no capital B on Bond.

Is it just me, or does this Christmas pudding look like it's been filled with beans?
A Christmas pudding, topped with cherries, almonds and orange slices. The almonds are covered in orange liqueur that makes them look like baked beans

Imagine being such a cheapskate that it makes it into the top 3 things your family want you to be remembered by when you pass away.
A plaque on a park bench. Nanny Poor Thing. She loved this park, always loved a bargain, but loved her family most of all.

Saw this ad a couple of weeks ago. Surely people still call it tea (I do!), and it's maybe a class thing, maybe a formal-informal difference? What they mean is, nobody within the posh social circles of this copywriter calls it tea.
An advert on the wall of a Tube station, for Too Good To Go. "It's called tea, ask my gran" vs "it's called dinner, ask literally anyone else"

And to show how little they care about continuity, this was only 6 years earlier and they could've Googled it if they were bothered. Wonder what backstory (if any) they had in mind when they chose Berlin?

The one I'm thinking of has a rounder face than that, and the facial hair is closest to Friendly Mutton Chops out of this list

What's the name of the (famous, I hope, so I'm not just describing a random) person who looks like this? Politician/political figure of some sort? Very round face, ginger beard and moustache, usually wears round glasses? Walked past him a few weeks ago, whoever it is. Been racking my brains since.

Wish I'd got a better photo. Bet this has some stories to tell #WeirdCarBS

He'd probably be a good laugh. We all know what happened one time he went for a curry (wonky photo taken while running for a bus)

I don't think of myself as especially tall, surprised
I am 181cm tall. According to this graph, that puts me in the 20% of adult males from the United Kingdom.

There must be at least one person out there who loves them and can afford it, for them to somehow decide on this price
The same card from the previous image, but the line covering the price has been removed. The correct price is eight thousand, five hundred pounds.

Time for another instalment in my occasional series:
Sorry, How Much???
A Pokémon card, a 2019 Latias and Latinos GX team-up (me neither, it's just what it says on the card) in protective plastic, in a display case. The price sticker has been censored.

Thought the same on seeing this just an hour ago, I would refuse to drive behind it

Someone decided to brave Storm Amy in one of these, on the motorway. He didn't even have the hood of his raincoat up.
An Ariel Atom. It looks like someone's tried to build an F1 car out of scaffolding

I might have found heaven, just a few miles from home
The forecourt of a car workshop. There are various 60s and 70s British cars, mostly sports cars. The canopy above part of the forecourt reads "Bulldog, the British Spirit"
