251 Portobello Road from Google Maps

I think It's 251 Portobello Road - at the junction with Lancaster Road. Thanks so much for your help

Nice one @marsdenmouse.bsky.social ! Good detective work.

I wonder if the van has references to Letchworth and Stevenage - though even if it does - I'd guess that's a red herring

It could be - though I must confess, I don't think I've ever been to Portobello Road. Its frustrating that I can't make out the name of the record shop. I feel like that could give it away

The Heptones

I wonder where that picture was taken. Gotta be some where in London right? Do you know the answer by any chance @houseofreggae.bsky.social ?

Netherlands, Spain, Ireland and Slovenia boycott Eurovision after Israel allowed to compete They, and other members of the European Broadcasting Union, had called for Israel to be excluded over the humanitarian toll of the war in Gaza.

I've been boycotting #Eurovision for years and years. Delighted to now see whole nations joining me

Wow! This guy really does not want my vote at all.

Nooooo! Don't scrap the Finch ruling!

Keir Starmer may see them as part of “unnecessary red-tape, well-intentioned, but fundamentally misguided, environmental regulations” but the Finch ruling, Habitats Regulations, biodiversity net gain, etc, are vital protections for our planet and for nature.

I'm Green all the way now - but would be so disappointed to lose Sadiq as London Mayor. He's done great work on air quality in the face of vehement opposition - and he's always spoken up for diversity. Hopefully @zackpolanski.bsky.social will go straight for HoC rather than the London Mayoralty

UPDATE:
It's good. Surprisingly good. Grittily reminiscent of Get Carter/Long Good Friday in some aspects of it's styling. Tom Conti also stars.

Slade in Flame

About to watch the film 'Slade in Flame'. Described by Mark Kermode as 'The Citizen Kane of British pop movies'. Looking forward to this. I've only just heard of it.

@brixtonmc.bsky.social fyi

Great culture can save lives. Literally.

Amazing letter in today’s @thetimes.com about Tom Stoppard

UK pulls $1.15bn support for Mozambique gas project after climate and terror concerns TotalEnergies scheme became lightning rod for terror in region and was accused of violating human rights

“This Mozambique gas project is a huge carbon timebomb, linked to serious human rights abuses. It should never have been given UK taxpayer-funded support in the first place.” - Asad Rehman, the chief executive of Friends of the Earth.

Some of these are definitely alright.

Looking forward to these. ❤️

That's quite a withering look she is giving

Scratch is right, by the looks of it. More scratch than Lee Perry.
I hope the cuts are not too deep.
