A suburban hedge with white blossom appearing. It looks nice in the sunshine.

It's been a bad morning. I paid for parking using the Ringo app, but for the street parallel to the one we were in. 🙄 More happily, the blossom is almost fully out on our front hedge.

Interesting. I keep thinking about an EV but have a low mileage 10yo car and the production CO2e for a new EV is what stops me.

AI image generation can get in the bin permanently. It's made us all more stupid.

That ai image is as bad as the fire.

You must. It's an excellent book, filled with detail and grim humour. Speculative of course, but great fun.

Just checked. It was 2011. How time flies.

We've also lost some political heritage. That building contained the Subway shop that Iain Gray ran into when Sean Clerkin hounded him through Central Station in 2014.

Horrifying. That view down Renfield St has been the backdrop to so much.

We've just seen the replay of that Paisley penalty where the ball hits Crawford's foot. Here's the ruling...

Nobody is looking for a penalty there apart from the VAR team

This is a great example of how Fox manipulates it's viewers. Because they trust only Fox, the Fox audience is completely vulnerable to manipulation by Fox. How could they know that what they're seeing with their own eyes isn't real? They couldn't. They're seeing it happen, it's right there!

Partick Thistle fans kettled for reasons unknown by Police Scotland outside Ibrox Stadium whilst heading into the ground.

Partick Thistle fans kettled for reasons unknown by Police Scotland outside Ibrox Stadium whilst heading into the ground.

Both sets of fans had worked themselves up to fever pitch over the last week, judging by all the graffiti and the chat about "Free Broomloan". They're why I got kettled outside Ibrox a couple of seasons ago.

The same story with tariffs, DOGE, ICE and every type of conflict Trump has started. Wait a couple of weeks and it will be fine.

Given their beef a Dunfermline v Falkirk final would be quite funny.

My daughter has just declared over lunch that Middlesbrough is not in Yorkshire. We've immediately looked it up online and we're more confused than ever.

We should have the same time as them all over the world, because they have the best time. People have said "sir, you have the best time", so let's do that. Canada, Venezuela, Iran, Israel, everywhere. It would make it easier to schedule calls to Putin.

Alt text missed sorry. It's a cartoon of some biblical figures and a man is saying so ladies, thanks for being the first to witness the resurrection but we'll take it from here.

There's no coming back from this. The US is a belligerent entity and the rest of the Western Hemisphere countries should treat it as such.
