@mrjamesob.bsky.social wasn't there an incident involving Danny Baker sharing an image that replaced Megan Markle's baby with a chimpanzee. A lit saw no harm in it even though it was gross.

School closed due to snow and ice. Second year in a row.

Back when I was a kid there would be blue holy hell to pay if a school opened on or befor Nollaig na mBan

They wanted to open on the 6th last year and the 5th this year and the weather gods said "no"
