These badasses opened for the sublime Sparks last night at Live at Chelsea. Perfect start to a perfect evening, even the power cut during Beat the Clock gave us a lovely moment with Ron & Russell #liveatchelsea

Lay in bed till 7 o’clock, yet rose with an opinion that it was not 5, and so continued though I heard the clock strike, till noon, and would not believe that it was so late as it truly was. I was hardly ever so mistaken in my life before.

Willy Billiams, man this dude - he's been 📹 Kraftwerk for donkeys years, incl. full on close ups of gear. I think if the band had wanted to sue him, they'd have done it 10+ yrs ago. One can only conclude he knows them or they just don't care 😆 Anyway, good on ya WB 💥 @ridebikes.bsky.social

So to my office, but missing my key, which I had in my hand just now, makes me very angry and out of order, it being a thing that I hate in others, and more in myself, to be careless of keys, I thinking another not fit to be trusted that leaves a key behind their hole.

VE Day on Shooters Hill #SE18 #Severndroog

Man, this is a pretty fucking gross move from Amazon, huh? Good on @bookshop.org for not mincing words, though:

Key quote for me: "There is still this idea that 70 or so road deaths a year in Wales is acceptable. But we would never accept 70 deaths a year on the ferry to Ireland, or on buses.” In London in 2024 there were 110 road deaths. These are equally unacceptable.

Severndroog Castle… in Eltham 😮 #SE18

A war leader should always wear a suit. (apparently)

Those in #Blackheath Standard be aware 2 X street robberies & 1 attempt vehicle theft in 72h on Stratheden Rd. #crime #lookuplookout @richardt135.bsky.social

How can this photo not make you smile? It fell out of a book on Monday when I was arranging the wall of books at my exhibition. So it must have been travelling around the country - on show but unseen - for 7 years now! But who are you, little fella? I hope you’re still smiling

#SaveThePCC Some of you may have read about the situation regarding our new landlord wishing to add a new redevelopment break clause, with only 6 months notice to our lease. For now, we're simply asking you all to share & sign the petition below; you.38degrees.org.uk/p/princechar...

Thanks be to God, since my leaving drinking of wine, I do find myself much better and do mind my business better, and do spend less money, and less time lost in idle company.

Fifty years ago, a transport revolution started in #Zürich. #Switzerland rejected urban freeways. Zurich decided not to build a metro. It began building an S-Bahn commuter train network. And they gave *absolute* priority to trams over cars in center of Zurich. The result? 🇨🇭🚋🧵

So glad to hear people were keen on my supermarket visiting! I will be posting video review on TikTok and Instagram (ten at a time – @emilytakesthebus), but I am also going to create a thread of reviews here!

Misty sunset today - from the second highest point in London, Shooters Hill.

Plans to sell the Greenwich Equestrian Centre, as well as a bungalow in the grounds of the Shrewsbury House community centre, have been given the green light after a challenge to the decision failed and ended in a political row.

How lovely! Waiting for All’s Well That Ends Well to end the year

Pleased to see the missing bit of the Cutty Sark’s Christmas tree lights has been fixed.

💨 Air pollution in Paris 🇫🇷 👇👇 2007 🔴- today 🟢 Parisians 🇫🇷 are reaping the fruits for a decade of expansion of public transport 🚇, bicycle 🚲 infrastructure, traffic demand management and parking policies. Well done, Paris @annehidalgo.bsky.social 👏👏

Always feel a bit short-changed when the view goes missing #ShootersHill #SE18

This seems like quite a remarkable thing to have in your rental contract (even if the man claims they never enforce it).

Jeez, New Charlton is a joy-sapping armpit of a place #SE7

Singing in the rain ☔️ High spirits at the Severndroog Castle Christmas Market today

Staid drinking and singing. Then Mr. Gawdon being almost drunk had the wit to be gone, and so I took leave too, and it being a fine moonshine night he and I footed it all the way home, but though he was drunk he went such a pace as I did admire how he was able to go.

This has been joyous so far through the rapid ascent of Soft Cell, but suspect it is about to take a turn
