I still have an X account.
It's only used for communicating with utilities (water leak reporting, power outage updates etc) and gov depts.
If they used Bluesky I'd shut it down.
As it stands, I have to get a P/W reset every time I log in due to non-use.

The trainers say "They want the best for the horses", but only if they don't have to treat serious injuries it seems.
Trainers should be sh0t (not fatally) if the horse is, might make them think twice.

I'm about 100 yards east of Greenwich Meridian.
Will I need a passport for work the other side of the meridian though?

What a pair of idiots.

And discs.
We are only 200ft from the sea, so it does get quite breezy at times 🌬

Just remember to remove before driving away 😱

If they live on the coast it can extend the life of brakes.
Salt air loves brakes, and these are cheaper than new brakes every 2 years or so.
(From a coastal dweller that has had them recommended by garages)

Hope all is OK

One of the best things on social media.
Please can everyone remember to capitalise each sure word though for people that use screen readers?

Perhaps they were implanting a heart?

It's a bold look.
Not sure how the shoes would work if you were doing the weekly shop.

Surely it would have been white chocolate.

Apparently Slovenia and Belgium are also out.

It's nice to see the Girl Guides haven't changed in 40 years.
I was asked to leave the pack I was in because I dared to support a black girl when she was being bullied by the others.

I'd like to think #Peacehaven is one of those seats.
Our previous MP was popular with the electorate, only to be ousted by someone Starmer parachuted in.

Liquid soap is better than a soap bar because it doesn't get slimey, it can also be refilled.
Many of the "lower end brands" (according to the article), are not tested on animals either.

If you have any A4 envelopes lurking around you could attach this to, they will get charged a surcharge, so please don't do that 🤣

What happens if you're early waiting for someone, or you've arranged to meet someone and they cancel after you've got there?
Given the number of pubs closing I'd have thought every bar would want more patrons not less.

...I forgot to include hot chocolate.
What an idiot 🤷‍♂️

You mean just in case someone visits, I need to keep the following;
tea, decaf tea, green tea, herbal tea, coffee, decaf coffee, sugar, sweetener, whole milk, semi-skimmed milk, skimmed milk, soy milk, oat milk and lactose-free milk.
Glad there's no wastage there.

Kids today aren't mentally scarred by the public information films the older generation (my age) were.
Is it time to bring them back?
