Can only assume it was the nefarious #feathersmcgraw who was exporting US$1.4m of unspecified machinery and electrical products to the US from Heard and McDonalds Islands in 2022... #tarriffs
Seriously lost my reading mojo โน๏ธEverytime I see my Kindle sitting there I feel guilty so plug it in for a quick charge. Just in case.
I just finished my first book of 2025 - the rather good โThe Mountainโ amzn.eu/d/2pFzWBm by @skpandemic.bsky.social #KindleUnlimited
Used my new Keis Ultraflex heated bodywarmer today on the commute to and from work and it passed the test with flying colours. #toasty
A very grey and dull 3 second long exposure taken from a moving car using an iPhone and the Sectre app.
Last weekend I wasnโt feeling particularly well & sat in the passenger seat whilst the wife acted as chauffeur. Sitting there feeling a bit meh, watching the world go by I was struck at how incredibly grey and dull everything outside seemed. This is a 3 second exposure in the Spectre app on iPhone.
Some stunning images here. My favourites are by Minghui Yuan and Sebastian Blomme.

Mac mini desktop with blue Christmas jumper wallpaper, Christmas lights and falling snow.
Still too early for me but at least my Mac mini has got into the festive spirit this weekend with a combination of iSnow janswaal.home.xs4all.nl/iSnow/, Festivitas www.festivitas.app and Ugly Jumpers Wallpaper basicappleguy.com/basicapplebl...
Now, where are those mince pies?
Pleased to see a few more riders braving the cold today at #motorcyclelive
One more reason people hate insurance companies. This from my dog's policy expiry notice:
"Your insurance payment (premium) last year was ยฃ279.48. Your new payment for this year is ยฃ40.77 per month" .
What would be clearer thus allowing a direct comparison is "your new annual premium is ยฃ489.24".
Well yeah - I guess it can be useful knowing what you donโt know!!
Really chuffed to be able to get my regular fix of Ladybird Book memories on here from @lbflyawayhome.bsky.social and based on my current reading from @jimalkhalili.bsky.social I donโt appear to have outgrown them!
Now the exodus seems to have begun proper, I'm sat with a nice coffee, listening to some @lloydcole.bsky.social and going through a list of accounts I followed on Twitter and trying to find some of them on here... Where are all my authors??? #sundaysleuthing ๐ต๏ธ
Been here since April, waiting patiently for twitter users to migrate over so I can follow on here. Finally looks like some are comingโฆ
