Today’s view…. Knockan Crag - it lies within the North West Highlands Geopark in the Assynt region of Scotland 21 kilometres north of Ullapool. The geology is stunning, More info : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knockan...

Shabana Mahmood, the Labour Home Secretary, herself the daughter of an immigrant, is expected to declare that “the era of permanent protection for refugees is over” Let that sink in. Utterly disgusting.

BREAKING: Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump spent Thanksgiving together in 2017 — while Trump was in office.

“I can’t take any more of this,” Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor told Epstein, newly released emails show. Can you even begin to understand how Virginia Giuffre felt about being passed around Epstein and his friends like a lawnmower.

Today I was mainly chainsawing wood. Very enjoyable…. Then will come the satisfying splitting and stacking..

Happy with a 4. Loads of possibilities with first 3 letters…. Wordle 1,602 4/6 🟩🟩⬜🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

This is one of those times when social media is important. I don't trust most major news organizations to do much with this photo, even though it speaks volumes about this moment in our nation's history. But the image going viral will get it seen, and might push news orgs to use and discuss it.

Happy with another 3, but stuck on 2 for ages, took a bit of working out…. But got there! Wordle 1,601 3/6 🟨⬜⬜⬜🟩 ⬜⬜⬜🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

US commentator being interviewed on BBC (think he was from The Atlantic) he was asked why Trump doesn’t like Mamdani, the commentator squirmed and mumbled something about Mamdani being socialist….. NO! Trump doesn’t like him because Trump is racist. Just say it. Be honest.

Christ alive. Get in from chopping wood, had left radio on for dog, (LBC - had been listening to @mrjamesob.bsky.social ) It was big phone in on Farage and his speech. Switched that off and stuck on Sky News, they were covering him too. No wonder we have a problem the amount of coverage he gets.

Phhhhheeeew! That was cutting it fine…. Wordle 1,598 6/6 ⬜🟨🟨⬜⬜ ⬜⬜🟨🟨⬜ ⬜🟨⬜🟨⬜ 🟩⬜🟩⬜🟩 🟩⬜🟩⬜🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

A mesmerising series. It should be compulsory viewing in schools. Hard hitting, ground breaking compulsive viewing. Incredibly well produced. The narration by Laurence Olivier is haunting.

Quite a fair and accurate description of the Orange turd.

So, because nearly 40 years ago Reagan said that tarrifs were a very bad idea, Trump has got mad and Americans are now going to have to pay even more for their Moosehead Beer and Maple syrup.

Feeding time…

Nothing on the BBC Radio news this morning. Nothing I could find on their website. This is an MP from the party whose lead in the opinion polls normally ensures them wall-to-wall coverage. She spouts racist nonsense for which even she feels obliged to apologise. What on earth are they playing at?

Hallelujah! A 3! Wordle 1,590 3/6 🟩⬜⬜⬜⬜ 🟩⬜🟩⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

13 innocent people gunned down in the UK but finding the people responsible is a “witch-hunt”. Make it make sense.

What a sad time in the US that the presidents main priority is a ballroom. Unbelievable.

A nice 4. Not the best, not the worst. Wordle 1,588 4/6 ⬜🟨⬜🟨⬜ ⬜⬜⬜🟩⬜ 🟩⬜⬜🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.
