Classic prioritisation of money and car experience this morning. Son playing for his local rugby club in Burton. I go for a run whilst he warms up. Pick a National Forest Way route. Cross a very busy dual carriage way with no pedestrian signage or safety features.

Some good one here. Perhaps the farmers protest escalation takes the prize?

Watched The Outrun last night, loved it. Stunning acting Saoirse. Emotional connection with both space of Scottish Islands and having a hedonistic time living in London. Scene conducting waves and wind on the cliff side, and soothing sense that instilled. Tearful. 🙏 @ronansaoirse.bsky.social

...is a pretty damning statistic.
