Hit by a car cycling home from work today. I’m okay (and very grateful for it), my bike isn’t. My Apple Watch realised I’d had a hard fall and tried to call 999 for me. I was able to tell it in time that I didn’t need help, but I’m still very impressed that the feature worked so well.

Love this good humoured take on the Birmingham bin strikes

Paediatric guidelines do state that ventilation is a particularly important component of CPR in children & advocate up to 5 attempts at achieving effective rescue breaths, before moving to compressions.

Have same caveat that if unable / unwilling, compression only CPR should still be performed.

As they’re back in the Resus Council UK BLS guidelines (went during peak COVID-19) it’s probably reasonable to teach them. Many people will not be willing / comfortable to attempt though. If so, there’s no debate that compression only CPR is extremely worthwhile so should still be performed.

Excellent statement from Lib Dem leader Ed Davey (not yet on Bluesky)👇

So ends another fantastic #moseleyfolk festival. Belle & Sebastian every bit as brilliant and entertaining as you’d hope for. Perfect way to round off the summer, feeling very grateful.

One of the many things I miss about my time living in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 is the humble Macaroni Pie! Got nostalgic recently so tried making my own. I’m not usually much of a baker (humble brag 🚨), but quite pleased with these for a first go. For better or worse, whole family now converted to pasta wrapped in pastry
