Public service warning. Block the fash.

For all the sound and fury over the fare cap, this is prob a much more important bit of news for the future of buses (though the funding needs to become consistent and reliable). Hopefully this is a down payment on the promise of an end to bid-based funding across all areas of local gvmnt activity.

Excruciating barber experience please I sold out of this print a while back, wish I'd made more. I think barbers must have been buying it lol

We spend a lot of time looking up. Our speciality is radio astronomy but we also love the rest of the electromagnetic spectrum, particles and gravitational waves. Still got a lot to learn.

You’ve heard of the famous Jodrell Bank Radio Telescope? You can now follow them here @jodrellbank.bsky.social

This is incredible.

Just enjoyed The Orb supported by Ozric Tentacles with my good mate @stephendarkale.bsky.social Ozric Tentacles were some support act!

Latest to come through the post. The vinyl packaging is a wonderful piece of Origami. Really looking forward to seeing The Orb on Thursday.
