The elections, in general, indicated a significant shift away from Trump and Maga. I understand your Supreme Court will shortly rule on the legality of tarrifs, and the rulling might go against Trump despite the bias.
It was another warm one today.

High tides are expected again tomorrow on North Sea coasts.

Are you planning another visit, Rob? Where are you looking to explore?

I assume the air traffic controllers are now going off sick. I still find it so draconian that they are made to work without pay. They are not the ones going on strike!
Yes, it was warm last night. Every monitoring station reported minimum temperatures above average and most 7c, 8c, and 9c above.

I think temperatures are due to drop down to nearer normal by the weekend, but just look at these records for today. No wonder the reading on the gas meter was so low.

I think there is a discrepancy under the C4 listings. I thought The Munsters started in the 1960s. 😊
Very domesticated Martyn. How much do you charge per hour?
This is the sort of thing Wes keeps talking about, but it is still going on and such a waste of resources. I don't understand why the lady wasn't helpful. I'm sure if the same thing happened to her, then her attitude would be different. I'm glad you're okay.
I have similar sentiments, so I just need to see how it works in practice.
That's a poor show and very frustrating. Are you okay? Did you actually miss the appointment? We sometimes get letters from the bank of the previous occupant. He moved in 2012. I do keep telling them, annoying 😑
I'm not sure Starmer is going to be that impressed with Lammy's DPMQ if he watches it back. Why didn't he just admit that another prisoner had escaped, apologised, given an update or whatever? Instead, I found his aggression uncomfortable, wasted capital.
No, I can't do that, Cris. In agreeing with the majority of the responses, I found it to be horrible and reverted back within minutes. I used to get messages encouraging me to try it again, but Microsoft seemed to have given up.
I have been introduced to Google Lens. I have no idea how long it has been running. It makes the doll cataloguing so much easier. My husband did a painting of a Cornish building. This lens feature recognised the building, absolutely amazing. Sorry if this is old news to many but not tech savvy 😊
I am very wary of dogs off the lead, whatever their breed/size. I would hate that to happen to me. I guess no doubt the owner said, "It is just trying to be friendly, won't hurt you' 🙄
That's painful, but now we know what to buy you for Christmas, a pair of slippers. It will take away the shock of retirement when it eventually comes..
🤣
Well, there seems to be some refreshing political news coming out of the US tonight. That was a barnstormer of a speech by the next mayor of New York City. I hope he can deliver because his conviction is strong.
Ben, I hope your talk goes well. 💙
Good for the heating bills. I assume the squirrel didn't take advantage of an open window?
Still very warm at the moment...

Christmas Advert Day 🎄🎅
It is my favourite as well it had 'Super Trooper' vibes. Have you come across this modern, fun remake?

The troll shelf has been rearranged.
I need to find a riser a cm higher than the current one because I misjudged the height of their hair. 😊
It was, and I got one right 🤣
