Most brands depend on personal choice, for some reason Hi Tec just don't work for me.

I had some Hi-Tec once and they lasted a year, wasn't impressed!

Recommendations for new walking boots anyone? The Meindl boots have finally let me down after 10 years.

I'm thinking about buying an electric moped. Anyone got one?

It's my birthday!

Rather than fish for donations, for every response saying "Happy Birthday" I will donate Β£5 to charity up to a max of Β£500.

Go!

This is a combined X and Blue-sky thing, Β£1000 is a but much!

It's a much better place, I'm slowly but surely moving across. Twitter is a dead duck.

He thinks money can buy him anything he wants, and sadly he's probably right

He will find a way. Trump will change the rules for him.

He buys the most political social media platform, helps Trump get elected, and his reward is a job in US government.

Isn't it obvious?

Prediction for 2028.

Elon Musk stands for President of the United States.

It's so fucking obvious what he's doing.

I'm still using "the other place", but getting more and more hacked off with it. Today's gripe is a constant pop up screen on mobile offering me 40% off premium. Thanks Elon, but nah, no thanks.

Had to fill up the car today, gutted I didn't make the last tank full last 2 months like usual, fell 3 days short. Fuming!

I appear to be getting quite a few random follows followed by a DM. It's difficult sometimes to decide whether to follow back or not!

On a positive note, gained quite a few cyclist and active travel followers, they always get a follow back.

I have given up confronting these idiots. I’ve just reported it to the police. They actioned the pavement blocker so I suspect this will attract a similar response. There’s no excuse for this whatsoever.

If you see this sort of thing, take photos and/or video and report it if you can.

I can't imagine the sort of person that does this. They must eat every meal at McDonald's

The opposite of littering, just use your car as a skip (this was in my car park at work). I dread the think what might be lurking at the bottom!
