18 yrs ago, I was violently assaulted & raped while walking alone. Every year on the anniversary of that day, I go on a solo hike to remind myself that there is still beauty in this world & I can enjoy it. This yr, I pushed myself & did a few days of the Southwest Coast Path…
British singer Sheila Diamond’s rendition of “Free From Desire”, performed at the Eastward Club in Chorley (Lancashire), is taking the internet by storm
Pure boomer masterclass 😎
@ShepherdWales 100%. In fact we just seem to meekly accept anything nowadays. It’s like the will of the public has been crushed. Politicians no longer serve us, they rule us. Nobody seems to mind….
There was a time when the public wouldn’t stand for these fuel prices.
I remember when the price was going over £1/lt and it all kicked off.
We just seem to accept what’s thrown at us these days.
@GMacdonaldSNP Wow. I’m trying hard to think of any metric at all by which Scotland could be judged to be a better place than 20 years ago…and failing. Our beautiful country and cities are in a horrendous decline. You guys are all the same and you are shameless.
Labour dominated politics in Scotland, winning at every UK election from 1964 to 2010 that’s 46 years. Years of failure.
The SNP has made Scotland a better place to live despite the financial crisis, Brexit, Covid & Ukraine war
Don’t turn back the clock.
Vote SNP on May 7th!
@lin26628@sc_bho I don’t know to be honest. She acts like she is, but I don’t know what is going on beneath. She’s had mental health issues before. I’m just not going there, but I do worry.
If you’re watching The Assembly right now and can’t agree that Nicola Sturgeon is a woman with humility, kindness, compassion and care, then it’s a you issue.
That time of the month again, granny actually went herself today into town on her free bus pass to collect, and now she is taking all the grandkids down the coast on the bus there and back, and not costing a penny, unbelievable, thanks to the SNP for that. What a wee country.
@ben_toto23@insiderlauren George seemed such a lovely guy. So sad he’s gone.
And yes tv was SO much better then. Everything is so JOYLESS now. Utterly joyless and bereft of fun
1990s nostalgia: December 1998 The Big Breakfast - Channel 4, UK TV.
That time that Denise got a surprise call from George Michael live on TV. 😲😲😲❤️
Remember kids, this was Breakfast TV! 🥰
. @insiderlauren - one for you, lovely. ❤️
@QueenoftheUnde6@bobbydodo74@Flying_Abi At a constant speed of 20,000 mph they won't feel any forces. Forces relate to acceleration not speed, apparently the peak acceleration on re-entry is 4g
@bertybear73@bobbydodo74@Flying_Abi Ah ok. That sort of makes sense. I know I should know this but I don’t - when does earth’s gravity come into effect - and what speed are they at then?
@bobbydodo74@Flying_Abi What sort of Mach/forces is one subjected to at that speed? I mean people pass out in fighter jets. How do they stay conscious? Genuine question!
@Flying_Abi Are they really travelling at 20,000 odd miles per hour in a small capsule which will be slowed down by a couple of parachutes? Genuine question because unfortunately and I mean unfortunately I’m can’t quite believe it tbh. Thanks
