After getting 9.5 hrs sleep Tue night, brain decided 4h15m was OK last night. But today I haven't stopped - first car wash of '25, found garage to MOT it on 23rd (MOT expires on 25th).

Then cycle, & worked 'til 6pm. Watch says 'body battery's in single figs - what happens when it reaches 0 at 11pm?

Yesss! My olde 2018 Samsung Note 9 mobile gave up the ghost yesterday with the User Interface dead. But today I've managed to get everything off it, onto a new A17, and up and running without losing a thing.

What a victory! Today MPs narrowly backed our bill to cut the Brexit red tape and end this economic nightmare.

The PM must listen to Parliament and the public, drop his self-imposed red lines and go for growth with a new customs union.

Morning Bluesky crowd. Is there a subscription version of the sun which I could try, because the free version doesn't seem to work very well ATM? All I get is cloud, wind and rain, and it feels like I haven't seen the sun in weeks.

My, it's miserable out there again today.

Jeez, she doesn't shut up, that Vanessa Phelps woman - she invites someone onto her program then spends all of the time talking over him like a tape being played at double speed.

OFF SHE GOES!

@lbc.co.uk you're running short of decent presenters!

Exactly this.

When you've been bullied, you remember who and where.

The perpertrators move on. And forget.
I am entirely not surprised that the bully doesn't remember bullying. Those of us on the receiving end have it indelibly stamped on our memories, but it was no biggie to these appalling people.
"I was only 17 or 18 when I repeatedly racially harassed a 9 year old. I either can't remember what I did, or it was done without malice or intent, and how can these people remember this? But that Shamima Begum, she was 15 and old enough to know what she was doing..."

Good morning world. It's grim, gloomy, wet, & rather cold.

I hereby declare today to be a Miserable Day, and although I finally dragged myself out of bed, I shall have a virtual duvet day, seeing no reason to cross the threshold into the outside world.

Hope you get to bedtime without problems.

Wow. Rachel Henry claiming that because of social media, a quarter of eight year olds have seen suicides online and beheadings.

I haven't ? 🤷‍♂️.

Oh my! Why does Badenoch treat every PMQs like she's having a non-stop row with her husband? It all pours out in every question, like she's been saving up a list of everything she feels she can possibly criticise.

Turned on radio & straight into someone giving Tom Swarbrick a good battering that 25% of kids having English as 2nd language is a GOOD thing, not something to bash the 'too many immigrants' gong about.

Superbly done, Robina Qureshi, English are lousy at learning languages. Kids are far better.

Mark Kelly says Pete Hegseth's reported double tap strike on a boat "seems to" be a war crime, and adds, "if what has been reported is accurate, I've got serious concerns about anybody in that chain of command stepping over a line that they should never step over. We are not Russia. We are not Iraq"

As they're saying "potential danger to life" why has S.Wales rain amber warning not been upgraded to red?

"An amber weather warning means there is an increased likelihood of impacts from severe weather .... while a red weather warning is the most serious, indicating a high risk of danger to life"

They're all having a wobbly saying that Rachel Reeves lied and should be subject to public prosecution.

No she didn't but first, can we get Boris Johnson into the dock? He's been waiting years, for a much more serious string of events.

Good morning world. Woken by the wind, but a good night's sleep nevertheless. Happy Monday, Happy December, Happy 1st of the month.

Just 23 days until the days start getting longer again.
