Justification for hoarding stuff is the best feeling! Sorted something out yesterday with a rubber washer from the "random plumbing leftovers kept just in case" box in the airing cupboard
Good to see you being awarded the Perrier
Get well, Mr. Mayor. Whoever did this is dethpicable.
Damn, I was going to do that one
Just across the road are their rivals "The Brotherhood of Van".
Hey, no spoilers! I was downloading your episodes of Behind the Bastards and everything
I would love to see this. Obviously Hank sound like the sort of wanker to sue over IP, so it would never happen. bsky.app/profile/ryan...
I would live a comic where Beano Dennis flies to America to fight the kid what stole his name, learning this entire true story, and beating the hell out of Hank Ketcham instead to rescue US Dennis.
Well, I know what I'll be listening to today
I've always felt short-changed by that, too
Is it one paralleling InterCity services, like 1L74 0809 Carlisle to Glasgow Central?

Are you sure there is a tune in there somewhere?
Is the retailer that sells cargo trousers named after the band or the other way round #totp
One for the #totp crowd. Apart from The Beatles, Carl Davis and the eponymous, are there any other artists that have released albums that share names with Docklands Light Railway stations?
Somewhere between Moor Beer's "Old Freddie Walker" and a holiday on Islay.
After a busy day of dealing with the church flooding yesterday, I'm on the strong stuff, courtesy of Brother-in-law's camping holiday in Belgium.
I don't know why. They're unique and delicious with tremendous protein value

"For beds in Reading, the place to be heading is Reading Bedding" #2TenFM #abettermusicmix
Well, that's an old 2-Ten FM advert I haven't heard for a long time.
So, out of 10, just 3 are free. Most would cost £50+ for a day out for 2 adults + 2 kids. None are adventure playgrounds in the tradition of a space designed for child-led play, risk, self-built structures, diverse affordances, staffed with skilled playworkers, no entrance fee, etc. archive.is/6PSM7
Hit the nail right on the head. I'm so lucky to live around the corner from Felix Road vench, which doesn't feature in this list. I mean, Mayfield is nice (and free!) but a bit soul-less
"Bring Thunderbirds to Bristol" I'm looking at showtimes and I can't see anywhere in Bristol advertising the cinematic release of the "Trapped in the Sky" 4K Restoration.
On a slightly related matter, I've tried to make the transport work, but I won't be able to get to We Have Ways fest to hear you on Friday evening. Argh! Maybe see you on the Saturday
This is basically me watching war films and seeing Mk1s. I don't know if I'm fun at parties because I rarely get invited
Consist and headcode 2Zxx suggests "Breakdown train, not going to clear the line". Is it the day after the Conington South derailment and collision?
The elderflower cordial is very nice too.

Two different groups of shouty people in Castle Park and a long queue for some kind of con down Broad Street. Centre of Bristol is busy today

Went to a q&a with Gerry Anderson at Watershed some years back. They showed a short clip of "Trapped in the Sky", so a full length showing would be epic How about it @wshed.bsky.social ?

Is it the Emma Bunton needless cover or the other one? I always get them confused. As long as it's not the Piddly Diddly (with Page and Plant) karaoke song from Godzilla
