Giri/Haji - dancing scene
YouTube video by Paul_ Lyk Giri/Haji - dancing scene

Reminded me of Giri/Haji : the Japanese / London crime drama had an wonderful unexpected dance scene in Episode 8.
I need to rewatch the whole season

Great video, great houses.
I have to point out George says "Mam" but the subtitles say "Mum" .
The same thing happened all the way through '28 Years Later'. Feels like my dialect is being deliberately eroded.

Judging by the content Ivor would enjoy the book "Beep beep beep, time for sleep"

Yay! A great way to kill the first 45 minutes at work.
Just FYI, in the UK our smallest coin is also a penny. There is another copper coin to confuse things (worth 2 pennies so a "2 pence piece". )

My primary school aged kids love visiting the Centre for Life. We made slides to view on a microscope last time we visited.

In about 91 in London I saw Silverfish 3 times in a week, without once going to see them specifically (they were supporting various other bands)

Compare Countries, States, Provinces, and Regions with This Simple Tool Drag, drop and rotate countries, states, provinces, and regions around the map to compare their relative size. Is Greenland really as big as all of Africa? You may be surprised...

@mrjamesob.bsky.social try the "True Size of" website. You can drag a country around the map to see how it looks super imposed over others, without the distortion of the projection.
Greenland is still big mind.

No help, but a couple of months ago this bloke was getting complaints about the quality of his T-shirts when they hadn't arrived from the printer yet: the fakes had arrived 1st

I feel like these are clues to where you disposed of whoever you convinced to drive you into the moors?

I haven't been to the train station for a while. Today I noticed that LNER have added sign language to their departure boards. I'm intrigued by the technical aspects, and impressed at the effort to make the service accessible to more people.

It's lovely to see the ghost dolls house sneaking into the background there. I remember when there were regular updates about it.
Unless I imagined those, which is possible.

@richardjamesfoster.bsky.social does any music released in the last 6 weeks of the year ever get a look in for "Best of" lists?

I think I started wondering about this phenomenon back in the 1990s with "end of year" album lists that appeared in November. Just jettison, what, 8% of the year? I know it'll include more than 92% the year's releases but still.

You know all those end of year stats that apps like to produce this time of year: what happens to the December stats? Are they rolled into next year, or just ignored forever?

You missed the badgers? Shame.

I lived in E15 for many years and never knew that existed.
Although I used to take note whenever I passed the railway bridge on Grove Road (the blue plaque helped).
