Currently 34°c on the #M5 by Weston super mare with stationary traffic #Northbound stretching miles. Avoid if you can. This is likely to take a while to get cleared.

I never got to meet @lancereddick despite our paths nearly crossing a few times. A truly fantastic actor and by all accounts a rare human and good man. Rest in peace, Commander.

Just watched a lunar eclipse that apparently isn't occurring tonight.

@supcat @itsvantime came back to show you this. I don't know what it is, but it's perfect and I need it.

Yup. Today marks the end of my time on Twitter. If you're staying here be good to each other, and yourselves.

I don't mean to alarm anyone but there appears to be a real shortage of Haribo Tangfastics.

@snigskitchen @samsera There is absolutely a shortage. We've gone from 90% of our calls asking if prescription ready / dose questions to 'I've tried everyone in the County, the hospital is my last hope to get these'

@samsera I reckon you're right.

I know who I believe.

@batsfordio It's a lot of both. There's GP's handing them out like smarties right now, which obviously isn't helping, but we've got dozens of people that need them to get through treatment we're going to struggle to supply.

@Velocentric Is this people trying to get them because they need them, or trying to get them in case they need them?

Despite what is being said it's now virtually impossible to get antibiotics. Today pretty much every call we took was someone trying to get them. It took 6 hours for national suppliers to run out.

@3daydog Recently tested a dual motor one and was thoroughly impressed. It's a top-tier build and great to drive.

Polestar make significantly better cars than Tesla, have a support network that won't make you sign an NDA, understand environmental consequences, and are doing something about it. I expect their bikes to be good, too.

Dealt with at least 20 calls today from people trying to get Phenoxymethylpenicillin for their children. We're out, everyone locally is out, our suppliers are out. We're running out of all antibiotics. Bloody scary.

@Teetosugars Just checked, was Amazon. The replacement caps that allow you to reuse the original metal bit rather than the plastic pod that needs foils.

@Teetosugars I found a reusable vertuo pod on amazon IIRC.

@3daydog I declare Angus to be a Very Handsome Good Boy.

Hedgehog drama continues: Neighbour brings me one he disturbed while 'hibernating', that appears to be dead. Meanwhile, 'my' monster can't find space with a rescue. Looks like I'm over wintering the little one (who's doing fine and putting on weight).

It's 3:50am. Sleep is being denied me by this (adorable) tiny monster that I found wandering confused, hungry, and very underweight. In the morning they'll be taken to the local rescue, for now they're warm and well fed.

@RishiSunak I'm a member of the public, Rishi. Want to know what I've had enough of? Tories. Be a good lad and call a general election.

This afternoon I met police chiefs to make it clear that they have my full support in acting decisively to clamp down on illegal protests. The public have had enough of this disruption and those breaking the law should expect to feel the full force of it. #PublicOrderBill
