I wonder how many of the "Protect Women" crowd were the best of friends with the now disgraced comedy person.

This is astounding. Nothing like this has happened before to people enforcing decisions that the bad people don't like.

What next - will they be sanctioned by a vindictive president ? Stripped of access to banks and travel ?

On the walk to what looked like a possible photo spot from the train, the last bits of fog vanished just as I started taking pictures of it. As if I disturbed the fog demons...

It was very foggy this morning on the way to work so shout out to the person who drove the wrong way along the bus/cycle lane after dropping off at the crèche on Skehard Road.

If the guards moved from chatting in front of Navigation House to the Sextant junction then things might be assisted into flowing a little better.

Little green car at it again. Turned left on the red at the Sextant into the flow of traffic from City Hall that had a green.

The estate and the green car drove into the box when our side had a green light. In case you're wondering why the buses are stuck. #Speorgorm
