Think it's just the standard flight path to Lossiemouth from the south for RAF.

Doubt you will see the castle from 32000ft with the cloud cover but if your flying anyway, sure why not. 😉

A few exercises are scheduled for this month including Exercise Agile Warrior 26 for the RAF, so most likely movements related to that.

I know I’ve got some Labour local gov’t types following me, so I want to say this clearly so that you can share it internally as appropriate: I will never again vote Labour while these policies, or Wes Streeting, are in place. I will not vote Labour at any level because of this.

A close-up of a blue road sign on a lamppost has been knocked to a jaunty angle, pointing down nearly to pavement level; the sign depicts an icon of a bicycle peeking out behind layers of stickers and a green box showing this is quiet route number ‘6’, with text reading ‘Kings Buildings’ and 2 (assumedly, miles). In the background of the image, which is focus blurred, we see people and vehicles moving around a square with greenery and bare trees in the center.

Nice to meet you Gay, I'm Calder.

At the very least it should prompt changes to the regulations for how and in what quantity they are stored and it being enforced.

The fire appeared to be out in the early pics but then suddenly erupted with lots of wite smoke which perhaps suggests lithium ion fire.

Spencer was robbed. Though the clumber spaniel is lovely.

I want Spencer to win crufts but then I'm biased with owning two miniature schnauzers.

Scene is a suburban street. A green RANGE ROVER is parked on the kerb. We see two men approach it. We'll call them MAN 1 and MAN 2. MAN 1 [showing Man 2 the Range Rover] So yeah here it is 59,000 on the clock Nice racing green MAN 2: Looks lovely MAN 1: It's got the heated seats, auto headlights [Man 2 looks in the front seat] MAN 2: Really nice [man 2 now opening the back door] MAN 1: Reverse camera, air quality sensor Leather upgrade - MAN 2: What's that? MAN 1: What  MAN 2: There's something on the back seat there  [we now see what he is looking at on the back seat. it is the tiny, shrivelled, calcified form of ANDREW MOUNTBATTEN WINDSOR, claw-like hands laced, his tiny body all grey, his hunted eyes glowing red] MAN 1: I can't see anything. MAN 2: You've got Andrew Mountbatten Windsor MAN 1: That's just light wear MAN 2: It's not light wear mate, it's the former Prince  It's completely ingrained in the leather [he scratches disdainfully at the melted form of the royal wraith] MAN 2: Is this why you didn't show the back seat on the listing? MAN 1: It's a design feature. MAN 2: I've come down from Suffolk mate. [Ends]

An unexpected benefit of London's cycle lanes...our would-be Dalek overlords are able to take an afternoon stroll with their human minders, unimpeded

It's strange, the guy looks rather modern to me.

Me too buddy, me too!

Me too buddy, me too!

Just wondering if it was Audi / BMW drivers fulfilling the stereotype.

Did the drivers having a punch both drive German automobiles?

Nice to see these messages holding on in TO.

Is Edinburgh Council still posting on the other place?

FYI…

Wait no charge at the weekends and they used £18 so would equal £4698. Surprised they didn't round up to 5k a year.

£11 a day seems pretty reasonable to be honest.

Dale and Tucker vs Evil is my favourite comedy horror. Delightfully silly film.

Rare Exports with an evil santa is another favourite.

Congratulation to @thebikestation.bsky.social on winning the SSF Awards Transforming Lives Organisation of the Year!

Sponsored by the Commonwealth Sport Foundation:
For having used sport and physical activity innovatively and intentionally to change the lives of young people in the last year.

End of the world jokes have been made in this household.

Looks like the Met Office is having issues as UKV isn't available.

It's a bargain price, don't think I can convince the wife we need to upgrade from an older model unfortunately.

Don't fancy getting a job In France cleaning the Zone Rouge of WW1 ordnance then?

[We see a close up of a young white male, tanned, white teeth, coiffed hair clearly an influencer on social media. It is an image such as you see when social media posts are shown on the news. In the corner of the screen is named a location: DUBAI. He is staring slightly off-camera for several silent panels of the comic strip. His eyes move slightly. He is having a thought.] From off-screen a newsreader’s commentary comes: NEWSREADER: Extraordinary images here of an expat in Dubai [The influencer’s eybrows raise slightly] …Having their first ever geopolitical thought. [CUT TO a BBC news scene. The BBC newsreader CLIVE MYRIE is talking to an interviewee next to the screen showing the social media influencer’s face. The interviewee’s name is David Jones]. CLIVE MYRIE: To explain the significance of this moment we’re joined by David Jones, our Expat Thoughts correspondent DAVID JONES: Clive, this is momentous It was caught on film at the end of an Instagram post titled: ‘Dubai Is Brilliant’. [Pointing at the screen, the influencer’s expression still the same] You can clearly see in the eyebrows here, the dawning realisation that there *might* be something in the world beyond his dickhead self. It marks a *huge* departure from all the Dubai Expat’s previous thoughts. CLIVE MYRIE: Which are…? DAVID JONES: You've Got To Get Yourself Out Here Mate, Everything Is So Clean, I Don't Have To Pay Taxes, I Am Incurious As To Why I Do Not Have To Pay Taxes, and Spa. CLIVE MYRIE: And might we see an expansion of these new Thoughts in coming days? DAVID JONES: I think we can expect to see: “I Deserve To Be Airlifted By A Country I Pay No Tax To” CLIVE MYRIE: Mmm.

Another great poll for the Greens! This time we're pulling ahead of Reform. And the fieldwork for this was done before the Gorton & Denton by-election win.

It's clear that more and more people understand that a Green vote will defeat the far right.

I feel sorry for my kid sometimes, cycling in Edinburgh. It’s unsafe, it’s bumpy, drivers yelling at them for being slow on the road, pedestrians being angry at them for being on the pavement. I feel scared too, for them. It should not be this way @stephenjenkinson.bsky.social

To be fair the warhead or what's left of it is severel meters underground.
