@MrBonMot Don’t forget snow shifting

In the UK It's actually Illegal to pass anyone washing their car without saying "You can do mine next if you want!" and then laughing!. Also works with cutting grass or cleaning windows etc etc.

@skscartoon Yep

I believe this is the answer to the Drone problem.

@TheSimonEvans Brilliant.

What I love about this is they resisted the greenhouse gag. Instead the sound of it bouncing off the outhouse roofs. Positively Proustian.

@GBNEWS Yes. I’ll be going. It was obvious to me. One must always think outside the orthodoxy….youtube.com/watch?v=DVorEq…

Matt Ridley reminded us: Prosperity isn't from top-down government planning—it's bottom-up from people trading, specializing, and exchanging ideas. Classic Adam Smith vibes from 1776, still true today! 📈 Great to have him in Mississippi. @mattwridley

Bloodyhell. What the heck are you thinking @britishmuseum?

I’m afraid this is true……. 😞

If you're British you have absolutely no business saying 'Gen Zee'. We had generation X, generation Y, and now we have generation Z. Zed.

@RochdaleCouncil Good. Looks like more fields around Middleton have gone.

Moving moment earlier today as members of the Armed Forces march through the local park in Langley, prior to the dedication service in memory of Fusilier Lee Rigby, Lance Corporal Scott Hetherington, and Corporal Joel Halliwell. #Lestweforget

Author Dr David Musgrove discusses new findings around the Battle of Hastings, which casts doubt on the story of King Harold's defeat.

@agbdrilling Where do you get wheel bearings for that?

Ferret out for the first time this year today after winter hibernation. Then a 25 mile run to blow away the cobwebs 🇬🇧🙂

@ProudofusUK I found the same with Wyoming and the Pennines.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧 Yosemite. The Sequoias. The Grand Canyon.🇺🇸 A boy from Dunbar, Scotland made the world protect all of it. His name was John Muir. 🏔️ Born 1838 in Dunbar, East Lothian. From the age he could walk he roamed the cliffs and fields of the Scottish coast. Something about the wild world would not let him go. In 1849 his family emigrated to Wisconsin. His father worked the family from dawn to dusk. John wanted to read. To think. To study. So he invented a machine that tipped him out of bed at one in the morning. To give himself more hours in the day. 🕐 In 1867 a factory accident nearly blinded him. When he recovered his sight he made a decision. He would turn his eyes to the fields and the woods. And never look back. He walked a thousand miles from Indiana to the Gulf of Mexico. Sailed to California. And walked into Yosemite. 🏔️ He lived there for three years in a simple cabin. Emerson visited. Offered him a teaching post at Harvard. Muir said no. Sheep were destroying the meadows. Loggers were taking the trees. Muir started writing. Articles read by millions. In 1890 Congress created Yosemite National Park. In 1892 he founded the Sierra Club. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 In 1903 President Roosevelt came to Yosemite. They camped for three nights under the open sky. Muir talked. Roosevelt listened. Roosevelt went on to protect 148 million acres of forest. Five new national parks. Sixteen national monuments. ✅ All of it traces back to a boy from Dunbar. He never lost his Scottish accent. He died on Christmas Eve, 1914. He was 76. Did they teach you his name? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧 Muir gave everything to keep what he loved alive. Our history needs the same thing. We need our keepers. proudofus.co.uk/support Be Part Of Us. Be Proud Of Us. 🇬🇧

@arisroussinos Great. That’s what King Arthur may have looked like.

There should be more films— or at least some films— set in Late Rome, it’s such an underused aesthetic

@Jim_Leary Not devastating then.

The cart tracks of the North York Moors. Last year’s devastating fire on Fylingdales Moor has revealed archaeology in graphic detail. Medieval holloways and seventeenth and eighteenth-century cart tracks are visible for the first time and look as fresh as the day they were made.

Royal Engineers Building a Runway in the Middle of a Falkland Islands Winter, 1982. Port Stanley 🇬🇧

@ArmchairAdml Good idea.

It’s only fitting that they do a tour of the UK, given it was our design originally.

Elites sneer at "stupid" working-class views... but a plumber making £30k knows more about mass immigration's wage impact than a posh pundit like James O'Brien ever will. Konstantin Kisin: Contempt & disgust blind "compassionate" media/arts types to real suffering. You don't need IQ 150 or PhD to know low-skill influx drives down pay—skin in the game trumps everything. Lived reality > parlor-game slogans. Class prejudice lets elites dismiss those most affected—ironic for the "empathetic" crowd. Ever seen credentials trump direct experience in a debate? Or felt dismissed for lacking the "right" accent/degree?

@SBarrettBar I e got a gesture for them…..

This is getting sinister.
