Wwll tonight's competitors in the big air competition seem to be having the same problems using the armholes in their bibs as yesterday's competitors did.

Umpiring at Bedford regatta. According to a member of the public, it's not called umpiring, it's the @mattpinsent.bsky.social job...

Random things that make me chuckle. Seeing disembarkation steps for aircraft being driven with no aircraft in sight.

And people wonder why the high street is dying. Arrived at Boots due to clothes at 1730 at 1723 and had to negotiate with the security guard to get in. He said we don't let people in after 1725. I pointed out the obvious and am now equipped for training camp tomorrow

The same young lady with goth makeup, a black Victorian-style dress, and dark hair: the classic 'goth look'.  The original image is labeled "goth", while another one has been composited on with a high-vis yellow work vest like those used on construction sites, and below it it says "Visigoth".

Sliced Bread - Grounding Sheets - BBC Sounds Grounding Sheets - do they really work?

Listening to a great radio 4 programme debunking something I had never heard of which when I worked out what it was I went. Obviously bunkum. "Grounding" wtaf.. www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

Ever wondered why walking around museums is weirdly tiring? At normal speed our legs act like pendulums, swinging forward from the hip & saving us a huge amount of energy. In "museum shuffle" our muscles must do ALL the work of constant readjustment. So cake in the cafe is scientifically justified πŸ₯³
