Some say they’ll switch to an EV ‘when the charging is easy.’ Well, surprise—it already is. 80% of charging happens at home, and with Co Charger, you don’t even need your own charger. No more excuses… just clean, quiet driving.

About that empty bus lane...

"... brimful of the shared delight in improvisation that Monk seems to trigger so reliably in suitably talented interpreters ... these versions stand with any others I’ve heard, including the ones left us by the composer." 📖 @jonWturney at @LondonJazz ukjazznews.com/xhosa-cole-on-…

Last gig of the year tomorrow with Andy Hague's Albert All-Stars Big Band at Bristol Beacon tickets at bristolbeacon.org/what.../albert… or from the Box Office from 7pm. Doors at 7.15 for 8pm start, great sound of 16-piece band with top brass sections and Bristol's foremost rhythm section

Rarely post here now but just popping back to say, if you were waiting for BlueSky to get interesting, that’s really happened now. Move over and you’ll likely not miss new, enshittified twitter at all.

Dem bones... Next Thursday Oct 31 trombonist Joe Bradford celebrates another master of the instrument with a tribute to bebop legend J J Johnson. With Greg Sterland - tenor sax, Dorian Childs-Prophet - piano, Chris Jones - bass, Paolo Adamo - drums

@ProfessorPaulC1 Ha. I was thinking of my other half, who has a book proposal on the go…

@jonWturney Not quite emeritus but closing in! 🤣

tomorrow!

@ProfessorPaulC1 Ha - now another Prof emerita who is still caught up with writing... :)

@jonWturney Yes Brigitte and I researched together some years back

@ProfessorPaulC1 yes, I took a look there - some interesting overlaps between health communication and the new "discipline"* I helped get going a bit: science communication... * not really a discipline BTW do you know Brigitte Nerlich? bsky.app/profile/bnerli…

@jonWturney Hi Jon, great to meet you! We are easily tracked! If you wish to see the other books go to paulcrawfordauthor.com 👍

Nice new Korean pop-up with a new menu until Xmas at the Galli - good news for Gloucester Rd folks thegallimaufry.co.uk/food

I don't oppose all contracted out provision but these kind of services are definitely not suitable - the undercut just makes delivery far worse (as family experience of maternity care switch to this provider in another locality demonstrates)

Wow. A local NHS consortium bid for this contract - yet it’s just been awarded to @HCRGCareGroup, the private company that was once Virgin Care. @HCRGCareGroup will now - for profit - provide community care across all of Bath, Swindon, NE Somerset & Wiltshire. Heartbreaking 😔

just donated - there's still time... !

Another touring band bristling with talent next week, Oct 17th, Tom Thorp's Ilumetris, featuring Tom on saxes with the great Neil Yates on trumpet, and Andy Stamatakis-Brown - piano, Grant Russell - bass, and John Arnesen - drums. youtube.com/watch?v=HCYO8W…
