Think I’ve found the updated Temple of Zeus ..

Driving from Kiel to Rotterdam today in an #EV. Maybe it’s just me, but the effort in planning to make sure I don’t run out of charge is a monumental pain in the ass. Same in reverse in my diesel truck - so much easier. Until infrastructure and range improve long distance EV trips are much harder.

Last day in #Zanzibar spent in Jozani-Chwaka Bay National Park. Examining the results of illegal logging in the forest with my good friend Miza from Zanzibar Forestry. And then the mangroves essential for coastal protection.

Another awful day at work, assessing the rates of mangrove removal using high resolution satellite data ….

Sometimes I quite like my job … #zanzibar

With all the talk about a third term for #Trump

I absolutely love this. A pilot in a Cessna 172 got permission to transit #Heathrow airspace during the closure yesterday…..

The ex Cheeky Girls groupie #LembitOpik is fun these days ….

So #vance thinks there are free speech issues in the UK …. Maybe he should speak to his #orange friend.

When the orange idiot #trump and his little sideshit #vance manage to even alienate Marine Le Pen you know it’s bad!

#FAFO as they say

For #NYE2024 have some #NorthernLights above the #IceHotell and #Kiruna in northern #Sweden. It’s getting close to -20 at the moment!

So after a week or so in an unseasonably warm #Jonkoping we head off north today to #Abisko, 200km above the Arctic Circle. Thick snow, complete darkness, moose and reindeer - it’s only a 1700km drive, what could possibly go wrong?

The start of a long drive to #Sweden from the #UK. Heading north of the Arctic Circle. Dog not impressed!

#stegosaur time for the annual #NHM Christmas decoration this year ….. with the wonderful #nanowarofsteel #valhalleluja for a different xmas song!

It’s raining out there … skirting the cloudbursts around Lake Victoria just before landing in #Entebbe
