This GCN episode gives a much better insight into the man, and how other road users treat him. It isn’t all hate. And it shows just how much London is a glorified car park!

The Welsh name for Greenland is Yr Ynys Las. There’s also a village in Wales called Ynyslas, near Aberystwyth.

The people of Ceredigion clearly have a very good sense of humour!

Trump is one of the worst humans ever to hold power. Vile.

Solidarity with the people of Greenland from Wales. ✊

Great to hear Naomi’s voice of reason and expertise in this slot this morning. The same could not be said of all callers.

Check out the For Wales, See Wales podcast - 24 Oct episode I think. I also hope @willhaycardiff.bsky.social returns to the @quietriotpod.bsky.social podcast soon, to discuss the election, the new system and the problems with tactical voting

Interesting how they compare to those others now. I didn’t look at them because I’ve found VWs too small in the driver’s seat (I’m v tall). Next time…

I would much prefer an estate. Tried with last car purchase but those I tried (<5 yrs old) had enormous boots and less leg room than some hatchbacks

Another Karoq fan too. Really wanted another estate but boot space is increasingly prioritised over leg room - couldn’t fit in a new Octavia with my 2 kids in car seats. I’m v tall but didn’t use to be an issue. Would rather not have SUV style but we also do v few urban miles

Long shadows in frosty Bannau Brycheiniog this morning. Great to return home fairly clean for a change

NY Times Connections puzzle with a credit to BBC’s Only Connect game show, where the concept for the game was created

About time @nytimes.com ! Although nicely done. The original is obviously still the best 😉 @vcorenmitchell.bsky.social #OnlyConnect #Connections

Brilliant analysis of the week in politics in Wales. I hope all parties pay close attention to these guys, and @willhaycardiff.bsky.social, as we approach the May election. Still slightly lost on the merits and influence of tactical voting under the new system, however

Ethnicities. And identities. Are. Made. Up.
We get to choose.

Someone can be a Leeds native, a Yorkshireman, a Brit BUT not English.

Just take me out and throw me in the sea. I’m done.

I was in the same position. However, as I just found you here (thanks to a repost by another), I have faith that I’ll find all of my contacts again eventually. So, after 16 yrs, just left X altogether.

god, the feeding frenzy around Rayner is obnoxious. It looks pretty clear that she took and acted on advice in good faith that was given in good faith. Rules around trusts are complicated, FFS.

This whole summer only one story has dominated our entire politics & it comes down to literally 30,000 people in hotels. Ridiculous.

The government needs to get a GRIP it’s pathetic.
