Ha. It's a 360 camera mounted under my saddle. Specifically an Insta360 X5.

Unfortunately in Scotland to report incidents like this you need to phone and book a home visit which often gets delayed. It's very time consuming. As a result I only report the worse. #DNRPoliceScotland means I Did Not Report. We need online reporting.

WARNING: This horrific video by a war correspondent reporting from the front lines of war ravaged Portland is not for the squeamish. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣👇

I actually felt compelled to thank a driver for keeping to the 20mph speed limit tonight. Compliance is almost non-existent. ☹️

Strictly speaking, as I'm not a motorised vehicle, I think that's ok. Everything else is wrong!

Most of the roads (inc this one) are 20mph in Bearsden now. The speed limits don't apply to this van driver (SA70HGO). Thus, they have no issue with overtaking two cars and a cyclist (doing close to 20mph) at probably over 40mph. #DNRPoliceScotland (the toots were the following driver warning me).

And I'm not sure it'll be at the right angle. Will check though.

I have some but I'm not sure they will be wide enough. I'll need to have another look this week.

Is that not a clip removal tool? I've got some of those but not sure they'd work for this. In fact I think the direction of the notches would be at 90 degrees to these.

Oh wait, this looks promising... Can't be sure it's the right one though... www.divapor.com/spares/showe...

Apologies for typos!

A picture of a mixer valve in my bathroom.

Hi DIY BleSky... I want to take this mixer valve out (first to find out what type it is and to turn replace it, because I believe cold is flowing through to the hot). It looks like it's held by a lock nut. I'm guessing a tool will fit the notches? Any idea what tool? I think it was Howden installed.

Digital visualisation of Dundee Street and Angle Park Terrace at the junction with Henderson Terrace.

We’re looking for your views on our plans to improve provision for walking, wheeling and cycling along Dundee Street and in the wider Fountainbridge area.

The consultation is open until 12 January 2026.

I'm no mechanic though, so it was just a guess. Definitely want to know what it is now!!

Oh wait, it's making some noise when you pedal as well. Hmm . I'd still suspect the freewheel.

As it's only happening when you aren't pedalling that would suggest (to me) an issue with the freewheel. It may need serviced (regreasing).

Pam Bondi is simply no match - intellectually or ethically - for Adam Schiff.

Watch this must-see clip as he dissects and exposes her pathetic performance today.

When she realizes how badly he is rolling her, she tries to interrupt. But it’s to no avail. She knows that he has her dead to rights.

No video? It didn't happen... 😁

There was a big drop in traffic during COVID that I don't think had ever 'recovered' so yes I think WFH has made a difference.

Not as bad as that but I do still have plenty of opportunities to filter past long queues...

YouTube video by magnatom Glasgow. Dear Green Place?

Filtering challenge: Does anyone have a cycle commute filtering video where you pass more stationery vehicles than this? A Facebook reminder highlighted this video from 12 years ago. Apologies (no apologies) for the length. youtu.be/4K3hx95uZ74?...

This is a lie.

There are many criticisms you might sensibly and truthfully make of the Sentencing Council and the Sentencing Guidelines. I’ve been making them for years.

But this is an outright lie. Pure fabrication. A fraud on the public.

Highlights For marginalised street users mode separation is the key to human-scale movement. Streets conducive to walking and cycling have functional, safe and accessible design. Professionals must approach street design, regulation and user behaviour holistically. Combinations of influencing factors persuade people to either use or avoid a street. There are no easy fixes to the public realm that will work for all non-drivers.

"The single most important behaviour, design or regulation for creating streets conducive to walking and cycling, was physical separation between the modes"

We've got a new study out, learning from a broad mixture of street users, planners and designers

The US can't look any more of a global joke than it currently looks...Trump: Hold my beer...

UK media almost totally failing to report rapid slide of US Republican Presidency into fascist authoritarianism.
Despite it being an existential threat to global liberal democracy.

This Israeli government decision to host Tommy Robinson will widen the growing gulf between the Netanyahu government and the British public, including the broad majority of Jews in Britain (3/4 of whom dsapproved of Netanyahu, before this new link to this anti-Muslim racist UK far right convict).

Indeed. However, I always find that cases like this leave a bad taste in the mouth.
I've been accused of enjoying reporting people in the past. That couldn't be further from the truth. It's not unusual for me to be certain I'm going to report something initially and then talk myself out of it later

I should also add, I hated reporting this one. I know that this could have implications for his job, but he is the cause of any outcome, not me. If you don't drive dangerously or threaten me, then you haven't got anything to worry about.
