Cannot describe how much I wish there was a β€˜bike bus’ in this country and how much joy it would bring me to see that πŸš΄β€β™€οΈ

If you don’t know what I’m talking about, google β€˜bike bus Portland’

Did I hear that right? Jeremy Kyle, disgraced talk show host, has been training Reform candidates in Wales?

What kind of fever dream is this

Anti-nature rhetoric damaging voter confidence in Labour, new poll finds | The Wildlife Trusts 19% less likely to vote Labour because Starmer threatens to remove nature rules

New poll finds Labour’s anti-nature rhetoric is costing voter trust.

After Keir Starmer called environmental protections misguided, 19% of 2024 Labour voters are less likely to vote Labour again.

Attacking wildlife protections is not a winning strategy.

Thanks, I used to always have Dunlop’s but my feet are too weird now and they hurt them πŸ™ƒ

I’ve got Keen’s for summer, I also have very dodgy feet 🀣 more akin to hooves!

Never have I ever heard of bean boots! Thanks for the recommendation!

Outdoor oracles, recommendations please.

I need wellie boots. Suitable for bog trotting, dog walking and strong enough to deal with every day beach wear and river wading. Can’t be too heavy, due to injuries.

Muck boots let me down after 3 months.

Help me please! πŸ‘’

This one is a slight pain to get a good line of sight on as it’s private land, but it’s right by me!

Sorry to disappoint, but that’s light pollution bouncing off the cloud 😭

🚨 AURORA 🚨

She is still absolutely bouncing away up there! If you have clear skies get away from lights and look up.

Sadly, torrential downpours with me so not a chance!

Already sightings in York, Grimsby, Essex, Suffolk, Northumberland and Ayrshire!

It’s so awful knowing it’s there and you’re clouded out. If it helps I only saw the smallest glimmer. And I am soaked now.

It depends how much sky you have but it’s going to appear south of you instead of north!

🚨 AURORA UPDATE 🚨

If you can get to clear skies by 2200 ish, the Aurora looks like she’s going to erupt! All signs point to a high chance of powerful aurora sometime after 2200!

Get yourselves out there and take care Aurora seekers 🌌
