Got to have a paddle after a four set full day of #hotmorrisaction Luckily Bradford on Avon is well set up with paddling opportunities.

Today's performative clampdown on migrants will gut our care homes of desperately needed staff. We are *already* short of over 150k carers. Banning foreign care workers will only exacerbate this - increasing suffering of society's most vulnerable members & pressures on the NHS. It's madness.

Happy #somersetday blue sky. Please don't come here though. The roads are busy enough.

Spotted today at Bradford on Avon green man festival 😁

Bradford on Avon green man festival. Literally all of the food groups covered.

Dancing out at Glastonbury dragons day today. Bringing an end to our Beltane celebrations. Nice day out.

bike night. Some lovely bikes about. My bike of the night has to be the 70's Harley Chop. You've just got to love fishtail exhausts.

Beltane blessings. All hail the Oak king. @wild-moon-morris.bsky.social

@wild-moon-morris.bsky.social dance the sun up in Combe hill in Somerset. Blessed Beltane to you all.

I am looking forward to dancing the sun up for Beltane tomorrow morning with @wild-moon-morris.bsky.social Should be an amazing sunrise.

Does anywhere else close roads for Beltane? Or is it just Glastonbury?

Looking forward to dancing at Glastonbury dragons this Sunday for the Beltane celebrations.see us at the Market cross in the centre of Glastonbury at 10.00am with Boudica ricks and Glastonbury border morris. #morrisdancing #folkdancing #folklore #glastonbury

True story.

Bit of Honda Spacy action today. Bit of a bimble and a pint of otter. A genuine 40 year old design classic. Once described to me as what a four year old would build if asked to make a moped out of Lego. They stop laughing when they get overtaken at 70 though 😁. #hondaspacy #hondaelite #spacy

Morris fact: Morris top hats are incapable of lying.

Bovey Tracey green man today.

Morris Mayhem with my tribe at the Bovey Tracey Green man spring fair. Great day with some great people. Nice to meet the resplendent @drracheal.bsky.social in person. Very broken now.

West country dim sum. Best in the world!

Green folk!

A good sight to see on a Rainy Saturday morning on the way to Bovey. Morris fuel is required.

Tomorrow we dance! Bovey Tracey green man spring festival. 18 Morris sides, pubs, stalls, food and cool shiz. @wild-moon-morris.bsky.social are stoked to be invited again. Should be a great start to the dance year. #wildmoonmorris #morrisdancing #folkdancing

You sure it's called that?

Canadians are now labeling food with a “T” symbol if it’s American and impacted by tariffs. RIP American-made food sales.

Terrifying thread - especially when you consider that Palantir has a major role in NHS data

I see the faux Christian outrage over not having Easter written on Easter eggs has started again this year. I'm happy to celebrate the coming of Spring and the fertility of the earth in the'old ways'. I shall continue to enjoy my springtime pleasure eggs with impunity.

No, children don’t take 72 vaccines by age 18.

A few years ago I would have been at Scarborough scooter rally on the piss all weekend. How times change.....looking forward to a cup of tea and reading my Women's institute book about Somerset. No hangover and no 300 mile ride home in the pissing rain.

Further evidence, were it needed, that privatisation was never about efficiency or improving customer experience. It was always about crony contracts and stealing public money. It was always a scam.

Remove the Olympics & World Cup from US, it is not safe for visitors. When you travel to the US you risk arbitrary arrest and abduction, random acts of extreme firearm violence and terrorism, unknown pathogens and disease, and discrimination or xenophobic attacks.

Oohh it's grim up North.

Q: What distinguishes a prison from a concentration camp?

If she's surprised by this I think Maths is not her strong point.

All day Morris practice. I'm knackered already 😳

When your local chippy has a menu like this. You know you are in for only the finest British cuisine. international friends look in envy as you imagine the culinary delight of a battered beefburger from Jimmy's in Stalbridge.

Ours was Caves in Yeovil. Dr Martens, Parkas, a selection of the finest Mod revival t shirts, Harringtons and a goth section down the back. A Saturday pilgrimage.

If you have family or friends who are under 25 and love The Bulverton then ask them to head over to our Instagram page as we're running a ticket giveaway where they (and 3 of their friends) can win tickets to this year's festival.

Damn my daughter for Getting me addicted to Boba tea. I'm sure it's diabetic friendly though 😳

This

Ah, that explains it. Thought as much.

Made me laugh 😁

What would we do without cider facts from the Wurzels?
