Happy St Andrew’s Day!
A Scottish one as it's St Andrew's Day: Baliscate stone row above Tobermory on Mull. There's a path of oyster shells leading up to the field of the stones – very nice. #StandingStoneSunday

Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

Does not have a Scooby - floundering, embarrassingly
Too late. Marco Rubio already spilled the truth. The so called peace plan was Russia’s wish list, not something the US drafted. He’s trying to walk it back but the damage is done.

He’s scrambling.

People mostly understand *far* better than either the media or politicians give them credit for. Our media is, as usual, letting us down.
Why do people think England flags have been raised on lampposts?

Such a shame never mind
Tesla Q3 2025 California sales were down 9% YoY despite the huge rush for BEVs ahead of the Sept-30th expiry of the $7,500 tax credit.

The BEV market ex-Tesla grew by 29% YoY in Q3, causing Tesla's share of California's BEV market to drop from 57% in Q3 2024 to 48%.

Still got a massive smile all over my face at this. Sometimes i remember what just happened and start laughing all over again. The sheer unadulterated joy of football concentrated in just a few minutes.
