A very offline cousin sent this to fam group chat. This story is breaking containment.

I’ll bung you an email next week

It would be great to talk about the Southwark deposits. I’m working on revisions to archaeology areas for the local plan now.

I’m British we used twiglets!

I wonder if it is high enough to be on the Thames Path outside the Tate Modern?

Dr Chris @drchrisc.bsky.social · 4d

Congratulations! And good luck.

It should be a straight flight not curved.

Dr Chris @drchrisc.bsky.social · 5d

They are not legal in the UK as the flights have to be straight for alternate tread stairs. Approved document K

Alternate tread stairs or Jacob’s ladder. You go down backwards.

The boundary change means it is a bit less Surrey and more SW London. The Guildford Plan collapsed the local tory membership. Many ran as local residents against tories largely within Guildford Borough. I’m not sure about Elmbridge which is most of the constituency.

Dr Chris @drchrisc.bsky.social · 6d

The big local issue for Esther and Walton, and a good chunk of Guildford is the Guildford local plan and the use of Wisley Airport for housing. You can track the collapse of the local tories from then.

Set at a wedding just to drop another cake on them!

Dr Chris @drchrisc.bsky.social · 9d

It arrived and looks brilliant. Congratulations!

The tory jumper. I wear one if I need to go undercover in the City.

Royal Mail are on their way today with my copy.

Only if she could play Ned Stark.
All this shows is that AI is utterly useless except for producing internet slop.

Dr Chris @drchrisc.bsky.social · 11d

Definitely one for @thecarfactoids.bsky.social

Great to hear Charles Kennedy remembered

A far better photo of horsley towers than any I’ve taken from the cover of the Surrey Pevsner.

A watercress farm in Abinger Hammer. The bus broke down trying to drive up the white down back to school and we had to walk.
