@toxiccowboy1 The Aston Martin DB5 and no hesitation!

I'm thinking starsky and hutch.

@PhysInHistory Arabic

What language does the word algebra come from? ✍️

@BBCCambs Or, and this is just a suggestion, they could use their own eyes. Or simply drive down any road in Cambridgeshire and use the bone-jarring bumps as a guide to where repairs are required.

@Cambs_Traffic Some very big detours will be required if all those roads are closed at the same time.

🚧ADVANCE NOTICE #A1301 London Road / Woollards Lane / Station Road / High Green / Tunwells Lane, #GreatShelford will be CLOSED to all motor vehicles from the 7th April until the 2nd May between the hours of 8pm and 6am weekdays for works. More info: one.network/?GB148379667

@RushmoreLists Peter Hook: Joy Division, New Order, Monaco, Free Bass And now as a solo artist with The Light Johnny Marr: The Smiths, Electronic Bernard Sumner & Stephen Morris: Joy Division, New Order Mani: Stone Roses, Primal Scream

Who's on the Mount Rushmore of musicians who have been in at least two major bands? Our talented four: Dave Grohl - Nirvana, Foo Fighters Paul McCartney - The Beatles, Wings Eric Clapton - The Yardbirds, Cream Chris Cornell - Soundgarden, Audioslave Yeah, we know. They were in others, but we only needed two. Who's on yours?

@crockpics Hallowed Be Thy Name, obvs. But Children of the Damned never gets enough notice. Superb.

On March 22, 1982, Iron Maiden dropped a monster. The Number of the Beast changed heavy metal forever — Bruce Dickinson’s debut, killer riffs, and songs that still hit like thunder in 2026. Run to the Hills? Hallowed Be Thy Name? The Number of the Beast? The Prisoner? What’s your favorite song from Please Please Me? Did you or do you have this album? What format? #IronMaiden #ClassicMetal

@markrwilliamson The first agenda item should be to ask EWR Co to justify its route selection given it has admitted that a northern route would be less environmentally damaging.

The Environment Agency has been bought on board East West Rail as the sole environmental regulator, in a move the government says will speed up delivery of the new Oxford–Cambridge railway. 2

EA appointed as environmental regulator for East West Rail with 'mandate to prioritise outcomes over process’. open.substack.com/pub/mwilliamso…

@EricIdle Mike Myers in Goldmember Austin Powers Dr Evil Fat Bastard Goldmember Genius.

Alec Guinness did that in Kind Hearts and Coronets.

@JoeBirder @theiaincameron I see what you did there. 👀

@drpeterjbrown @theiaincameron Yeah it’s a lake, but what’s it called?

In the state of Wyoming in the USA lies a real hydrological oddity. It's a small stream (creek) that is thought to be the only one of very few examples in the world. It is placed so precariously and perfectly that it's hard to believe it is able to exist. 1/n

@engineers_feed Insufficient information to determine whether any of these trucks are driving. A could be braking it on a slope. B could be stationary or moving at a constant speed. C could be accelerating or on a slope.

We should all get the same answer folks 💪🏼

@curiosityonx Controversial is one way of putting it. Gibbering nonsense is another way, unless our brains are somehow breaking causality, one of the most fundamental aspects of our universe. Or is this a sensationalist summary?

🚨: Scientists suggest consciousness isn't strictly linear ─ it can jump through time, suggesting 'gut feelings' are information from the future. 🧵

@dadbegg I’m agreeing! 🤣

@drpeterjbrown Straight?

Despite the #anger, disappointment and frustration of last night, and #Leven's comment "We are in #trouble," the #Dons need our support and backing as never before, starting on Saturday against Falkirk. None of us want #relegation.

@afneil How would you pay for the damage caused by climate change? We need to do both.

I’d pay for billions more in defence by switching funds from net zero nonsense. So no need to increase tax burden. And the rises in defence spending are barely perceptible. Which is a national scandal.

@afneil @British_Airways I really don’t see the problem with BA rewarding those who spend most money with BA as opposed to people going on loss-making tier point runs to game the system.

The impact of the changes won’t be felt til April, when tumbleweed will start blowing through the Concorde and First Class lounges — and @British_Airways will be forced to rethink its cavalier treatment of its most loyal/high spending customers. If not — other airlines are available, often better than BA. I will be watching with interest from the comfort of the Delta, Emirates and Air France lounges. Thank you for your attention to this matter, Sean Doyle.

@drdjmath @theiaincameron @ron_mould In my experience that’s the island of Iona.

@theiaincameron @ron_mould Loch Maree also has the most midges I have ever witnessed in one place!

Loch Maree in Scotland is a very pretty stretch of water. Arguably the prettiest in the country. In additon to its beauty, it has a claim to a record among UK lakes & lochs. 1/3

@isabellRoseXoXo Welease Bwian!

Hardest word in American English for Hugh Laurie.

@Sam_in_Cam @ACarpenDigital Good grief! That’s enormous. You can see why people are looking at mini nuclear schemes to power data centres.

AI data centre surge would put UK’s climate change targets at risk thetimes.com/uk/environment…

@DBurr_ @TEnglishSport Celtic also exist.

@TEnglishSport The worst run club in the country but Dave gets an easy ride somehow from the fans and media

Not sure this is going to appease the Aberdeen fans. Another managerial search and another long-running drama. Amazing
