Top marks to Volvo for taking Black Friday too far. Booked an appointment at their exclusive Black Friday "event" where I was told I could get a black car for the same price as a non-black car. I'm not even joking. The 1.5 hour round trip was worth it for the laugh.

The best thing about Bluesky so far is that there are two Martin Boons. I’d unfollow the wrong one but he’s the one who’s followed me back.
