Bit daft of the French...

... but those van Moof are overengineered anyway. And come with 'integrated' (i.e. bloody uncomfortable and impractical) saddles.

I am a proud uncle. My nephew has just got a good 2:1 MSci in Theoretical Physics and Applied Mathematics from the University of Birmingham...

Not dead - but, thankfully, banned.

Anyone else been watching Samira Ahmed's 'Art of Persia' on BBC4? If you're into art, Persian/Islamic architecture, history or poetry it's well worth a watch.

I really want to visit Iran... once they get Covid under control.

Allison Pearson's on her last warning I think. Hopefully, she'll follow Hatie Katie in getting a permanent ban.

Look what’s arrived in Cambridge....

The case is being discussed on the Today programme... Neomi Bennett comes across very credibly.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/jun/18/nurse-claims-met-police-wrongfully-arrested-her-because-she-black-neomi-bennett Has anyone followed this case and watched the police bodycam footage?

I have confirmation that my Randy Rainbow 'From Now On I Identify as Cuomosexual' t-shirt has shipped...

My employer did say that they would test him on Friday or Saturday of last week if he wanted but he'd already booked the appointment...

I have a long history of issues with my ear and have regular checkups, over the weekend my ear decided to really go for it so this morning I called the booking centre at the hospital and was told I can only get an appointment by GP referral, rang GP, cannot speak to anyone until Thursday, cannot wa...

Priti Awful, Boris Johnson and Hattie Mancock also lying: Anger as Priti Patel says NHS fees paid by foreign health staff must stay, just three weeks after announcing ‘review’

We had our first work-related Covid19 death last week. We have only two Covid sites and it was a nurse - with a young family - from one of those sites.
