📈 230,000 Green Party members and counting. 💚 People are rejecting hate and division and opting for real hope and real change. 🗳️ And that change starts by voting Green before 10pm today!

Some good guidance here given the increased terror level. Stay safe out there.

People who use hands free at full volume on a bus (who don’t NEED to use hands free on a bus - you know who you are). Please stop. Stef I’m sure you’re lovely but I didn’t need to know intimate details about Mandy’s life… neither did the rest of the bus. Shush… 🤫 🫣🤣

The UK Threat Level has now been raised to Severe, meaning an attack is highly likely. Our industry friends at RB Health and Safety Solutions have shared the following recommendations with us to pass on: https://www.abtt.org.uk/uk-threat-level-severe/ #ABTT #Theatre #UKTheatre

Really loving the Bath Festival of Roadworks & Scaffolding currently happening… it’s a beautiful thing… 🫣🤦‍♂️

Another day another round of bus cancellations by the utterly shite First Bus (Worst Bus). The sooner we can take back control of the buses the better. With a bus only every 30mins now that means a ridiculous gap between services. Our councillors don’t seem interested in helping. I give up! 🤦‍♂️

I just made a surprise appearance at the Royal Albert Hall for Earth Day. The room felt so hopeful. People so sick and tired of climate injustice - but even more driven by wanting change. Tackling the climate crisis needs all of us - and an end to Rip Off Britain. #LettersLive

OMFG I had to go and check that this ACTUALLY happened. Since when does the BBC ever do chyrons with a political party's branding, rather than their own? Not to mention this is during a pre-election campaign purdah. (h/t @iainsol.bsky.social)

Much needed but 6 months of chaos is about to erupt! I wonder how many other roads are in a similar state? Most of Bath is built on vaults (the original street level being about 6ft below). The area around Bog Island is held up by acrowprops. Scary really!

Opera at the Roman Baths Despite actor Timothee Chalamet dismissing ballet and opera as art forms that people do not care about, it seems there are many other people around his age who do. Some of them will be performing in our city this coming weekend. Bath is about to enjoy the inaugural…

An interesting read.

When on the bus from Bathford into Bath - the top of Walcot Street is called “Walcot Gate”. What’s this in relation to? The North Gate was much further down. Was there another gate on Walcot Street or does it just mean “entrance to Walcot street?” - Tuesday musings.

Dating from around 3500 BC and 30 metres long, it has multiple burial chambers open to view. www.bathecho.co.uk/news/plannin...

Wow wow WOW! Beautiful northern lights over Bathford tonight 😍 #NorthernLights #AuroraBorealis #BathUK

Artists and astronomy experts come together to explore our enduring fascination with the cosmos

Whilst at primary school we went over to visit the dry dock and see the Matthew being built. I have this memory of them steaming planks to bend them into shape. We also visited the SS Great Britain at the same time.

Looking forward to showing you all much more of the amazing wildlife & landscape history in & around #Bath this year! #Somerset #nature #wildlife #ukwildlife #bathnature #bird #ukwildlife #birdphotography

This feels like very worrying and bad news for Bath - what are Labour thinking? The only reason so much of the city is protected is because of UNESCO inscription meaning more scrutiny and call ins are allowed on planning decisions made. This looks to be the sack of Bath mark 2.

The Royal Variety audience booing Keir Starmer tells you everything you need to know about how the country is feeling right now. #RoyalVariety

A joy to finally have seen and been able to photograph a kingfisher in Bath. I’ve been trying for a few years to get a decent shot and now I have I am VERY happy. 😆 #Kingfisher #UKBIRDS #BathUK #VisitBath

Why is it that when a new book gets published it comes out in hard back first and not paperback? I would prefer it the other way around (and I’d have more space on my bookshelves for more books). That’s today’s 3am musings 🤷‍♂️🤣

I know lots of people who LOVE voice notes. I, on the other hand, do… not

Running slightly late this morning so grabbed a taxi to Bath Spa Uni. Jumped out at Main House and a guy rushed out to meet me… except it wasn’t me he was supposed to meet… I played along politely until it finally clicked that I wasn’t the guy he was waiting for… I just presumed I knew him 🫣🤷‍♂️🤣

Does anyone else really hate voice notes? Or is it just me? Please just send me a damn message or phone but not this weird in-between thing that I probably can’t listen to straight away because I work in theatre and have to be quiet most of the time… ANNNND breathe! 😮‍💨🤣🫣

The growth of data centres is placing pressure on electricity networks. In some areas this is already delaying new housing. Modern data centres can consume as much power as many tens of thousands of homes, the grid cannot always support both #ukhousing www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/uk-d...

I wish companies would stop publicly advertising job roles they already know the person they want for. Stop playing games. Just give it to them and be done with it and stop wasting everybody else’s time 😉 Do you have ANY idea how long it takes to fill out a job application? Rant over 🤣🤣🤣

How many farmers were arrested for blocking roads and holding up traffic? Asking for a bunch of imprisoned pensioners who did nothing but hold up signs… 🪧
