Within seconds of @nico_rosberg announcing he's retiring, @alo_oficial sets up camp outside the @MercedesAMGF1 factory

@BraddersHoll @AndyAitcheson @WeHaveWaysPod @date_gemma @robert_lyman We're actually a bunch of berks rather than residents of Berks, but apparently that's close enough!

@AndyAitcheson @WeHaveWaysPod @date_gemma @robert_lyman @Ralph_E_S are th people you need to speak to about the Berks IC March

Can’t find the @WeHaveWaysPod Berks IC contact details. Can someone help?

@tcmccarthy_ @Thomas977673521 @GuyThom29406006 The American "education" system strikes again!

@Thomas977673521 @GuyThom29406006 The Sheer numbers snd facts support my position. Go read it again. But muh-muh-muh-burma and anything else you scrape together is just bullshit. 😂😂😂🇺🇸🖕

Next time, I say we let Europe go it alone. “Omaha Beach wasn’t really that extraordinary”

@almurray How many milibands is that?

New unit of measurement just dropped: "most of Manchester"

@StigTheWhite @jackdoodlysquat @DJSnM Go and look at what a Canberra B mk1 looks like and ask yourself that question! There is almost nothing of the original English Electric design left

@jackdoodlysquat @DJSnM Ok, but they've at least kept been retrofitting newer technology to it and keeping things relatively up-to-date. Has the WB-57 received the same treatment? Do they have the ability to source parts for it anymore?

NOooooooooooo!!!!!!

@frentzen_hh @JohnCleese It is John Cleese, but he has lived in Hollywood for a long time and his views are not representative of normal British people. He is a grumpy old American now!

@JohnCleese Are you the Real John Cleese? Or is this a fake account?

A vital British principle abandoned because it will cost Starmer Muslim votes Absolutely disgraceful

@prodnose how can it be "totally original" when he is notorious for reading out wikipedia articles!? Most of his videos could be cut to about 10 seconds long by answering "well, no" to the clickbait supposition in the opening statement

Mark Felton's WW2 channel on YouTube is never less than totally original and magnificent. @MarkFeltonProductions/videos" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@MarkFeltonPro… A recent video uncovered the only sport Hitler loved to play. Bowling. From it, here is Hitler bowling. Yes, really.

@grok @EchoesOfIAM @DrNeilStone Where's that 'MAGA arguing with Grok' account when you need it?

Operation Popeye highlighted cloud seeding's disruptive potential when wielded as a weapon, which led to the ENMOD Convention prohibiting hostile environmental tactics. Civilian applications, however, prioritize drought relief through controlled, monitored releases that decades of data deem low-risk for health and ecosystems. True safety demands ethical governance to prevent misuse, balancing innovation with accountability rather than deeming the technology inherently unsafe.

Clouds, Naomi They are clouds

@Hush_Kit Good LORD!

Sorry (not sorry)

@guywalters @Independent I'm refusing to watch it on principle. I do hope that "The Mitford Industrial Complex" catches on as a way of describing all this, well done on that one!

It’s time to stop celebrating the Mitford sisters – they are Downton Abbey with swastikas, I write in The @Independent. independent.co.uk/arts-entertain…

@BTCCFacts @alicepowell @WezMan444 What he's doing is called 'Sea Lioning', which is a form of harassment designed to look innocuous and 'just asking questions' to people who only see some of it. The idea is that the victim snaps and makes a rude reply so they can be cast as the Bad Guy

@alicepowell @WezMan444 The post you have shared is not trolling in any way, he’s just sharing an opinion that you don’t agree with.

Even after a positive weekend for Abbi in GB3, it’s still a huge shame a select few decide to troll. Including this guy, who does the same on X. Struggle to work out why people go out of their way to be idiots, making out they know everything, when they really, really don’t!

@HistoryPegg would you like an invitation to the IC great war whatsapp? We could pick this one to bits in there! Were officers still expected to buy all their own uniform etc then? I wonder if it's a hangover from that, the assumption that the Officer Class have "agency" but the Men didn't?

#History Things I’ve learnt today: officers in the First World War were not automatically awarded their campaign medals they had to apply for them. Others ranks received them direct. I wonder why that was and BBC what happened if they were killed. Did families have to apply. #WWI

@Hush_Kit - Spicy Dorito - Apex seals go brrrr - Dr Wankel was kicked out of the Nazi party for being an extremist

Three reasons Wankels are good for drones?

@militaryhistori this happened 11 years ago mon ami - most of them have now been restored to flight and are roaring around the skies once more!

A collection of historic planes that were used in the filming of the 1969 film "The Battle of Britain" and then stored in a Texas hangar for more than 45 years has been sold for more than $17 million

@bashybanana.bsky.social

@Hush_Kit Cheap to buy, robust enough to survive student pilot abuse particularly on landing (spring steel undercarriage in particular), and cheap to fix when broken. Then, what do you buy after you've got your license? Many automatically choose their own example of what they learned in

Today, I'm interested in questions that are so obvious that they are often not asked: Why was the Cessna 172 so successful?

@Npteggchaser @almurray @WeHaveWaysPod ELMS isn't a big spectator event, they are unlikely to alter traffic flows for it. They're endurance cars so not particularly loud either. Very different to the mad and loud F1 and MotoGP weekends. I'm annoyed at the clash as I want to go to both...

@almurray @WeHaveWaysPod It's a bugger that there's a race meet on at Silverstone, already pushing the hotel prices up in the area, without the rush of the IC looking for rooms, could put some people off, we will see.

So @WeHaveWaysPod Festival V for Victory (putting the fün into fünf) dates have been announced. 12-14TH SEPTEMBER 2025 Blackpit Brewery tickets for Patreon subscribers, #IC members, go on sale a week today, 15th November, general sale on 29th November. See you there. #history #ww2 #wehaveways #historians #twitterstorians

@davidjmcarson1 @militaryhistori Oxford High Street isn't the main shopping street - that's round the corner on Cornmarket Street which is just another 1950s-90s "concrete carbunkle". The new Westgate Centre mall has emptied it of most high street names though.

@militaryhistori That’s a rare thing in this Country, the 1950’s, 60’s and 70’s saw many high streets destroyed by unsympathetic re-development.

Oxford High Street in 1885, with the same view today. Virtually nothing has changed in the last 140 years. (Hat-tip to Then&NowGB)

@UnracedF1 @HoogenwAP Santa Pod is near the village of Podlington, in the countryside between Northampton and Bedford

@HoogenwAP In the UK, not 100% near which city

The shakedown of the Lola T97/30 at Santapod in February 1997, did they knew at that point it was mission failed even before they started? I assume so.. as the original plan was to debut in 1998... #F1 #RetroF1

@LN4addict who are you calling old!?

how old fans be describing Michael Schumacher

@RM_Mili_History @FightingOnFilm I have that box set for some reason....the only thing I can remember about it is the bloody awful theme song! Isn't it written & performed by one of the producers?

Just stuck on my box set of ‘Over There’ a 1 season Iraq war drama that aired on FX in 2005. I don’t remember it being show over here. It predates Generation Kill, but I’m not sure it’s even fit to polish its boots. @FightingOnFilm
