My Amazon Xmas wish list has suddenly had all my items removed and replaced with a pair of trainers and a room de-humidifier. We use these lists at Xmas to let other family members know what to buy. My list of comics, books and music CDs has gone. I don't wear (or like trainers) or humidifiers. Grr.

Kemi Badenoch on BBC Breakfast Time (08:44) this morning:

"We need to get our energy out of the ground rather than importing oil from Norway who are drilling in the same basin.
That’s not doing anything for the environment."

So it's good for the environment if we drill there instead?

This small change could be transformational for public safety:
Portable BBQs with lids & legs can be bought for less than £10, reusable, better for environment, reduces risks
I’ll be doing my best to amplify the call for standards and/or a ban on disposable barbecues ‘this morning’.

Any reposts or help sharing the message hugely appreciated

Disposable Barbecues are made with no consideration for safety or the environment.

As a consequence we have a near constant stream of…

- catastrophic environmental destruction
- life changing injuries
- needless landfill

Minimum standards for their production are essential

Today is #WorldBeeDay and coincidentally the day we get a bee swam in our garden apple tree. It's now been taken to a nice new home nearby.

Trump knew this would happen. He knew Putin would strike. And he simply didn’t give a damn.

Using Ukraine’s dead civilians as a tool of extortion is despicable, even for him.

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

How great is AI? Here's Google's own helpful AI response to my search: "The error "unsupported 1th argument remote_host to 'route' (line 7)" in your Ubuntu OpenVPN configuration file means that on line 7, you're likely using the "route" directive incorrectly".
Wow. Genius.
