Scientists at Rolls Royce built a gun specifically to launch dead chickens at the windshields of airliners and military jets all travelling at maximum velocity. The idea is to simulate the frequent incidents of collisions with airborne fowl to test the strength of the windshields. American engineers heard about the gun and were eager to test it on the Windshields of their new high speed trains.. Arrangements were made, and a gun was sent to the American engineers. When the gun was fired, the engineers stood shocked as the chicken hurled out of the barrel, crashed into the shatterproof shield, smashed it to smithereens, blasted through the control console, snapped the engineer's back-rest in two and embedded itself in the back wall of the cabin like an arrow shot from a bow.. The horrified Yanks sent Rolls Royce the disastrous results of the experiment, along with the designs of the windshield and begged the British scientists for suggestions. You're going to love this...... Rolls Royce responded with a one-line memo: "Defrost the chicken." 🤣🤣🤣

@lp_iker @sunprincess @WorkElizab It's definitely not one that let's poor people die of a treatable illness because they can't afford health insurance

@sunprincess @WorkElizab The best country in the world is the one with less poor people, the best education, the lowest criminality... USA is not the best, by far.

Which country would you choose?

@SimonBatesUK What gravel or what is gravel

@grumpyat70 By what?

That’s gravel for you

Trump threatens to end US-UK trade deal because UK won't join his illegal Iran war. There is no special relationship. It is subservience to the US. No point in making agreements with Trump. He doesn't honour them. The King's visit should be cancelled. theguardian.com/politics/2026/…

@SimonCalder @pcowles No Simon, this is down to @Keir_Starmer & @DavidLammy eu/UK/Gib negotiations, this has nothing to do with Brexit, and this should sound a clear warning in what Starmer & @UKLabour will sign away over his reset.. Try not to be so biased...

@SusieM414141 Doesn't matter. The flow chart is never wrong.

😂🤣✅

@SimonBatesUK Omg, how did you get that lost?

@sunprincess @WorkElizab Lovely place, where gun ownership is legal. What could possibly go wrong

@WorkElizab None. We have our faults but this is still the greatest country in the world. 🇺🇸

@N0TINSERVICE Which one was yours Moody?

Seems fine 😆

@N0TINSERVICE Groan

#FunFact 😎

Trump has removed this image he posted of himself as Jesus because of the backlash from his own supporters. Please DO NOT post this far and wide as it’s best to confine it to the dustbin of history in case it causes him ongoing damage. #TrumpBlasphemy

@SimonBatesUK Some places use old public phone boxes to do this

Do we do this, outside the occasional phone box?

If MAGAs want to compare Trump to Christ, why don't they crucify him and see if he gets up on the third day?

@AnnieForTruth Whenever I see him on TV I spend so much time looking for the strings I never hear what he's saying. Very clever how they hide them

This is why JD Vance is the most unpopular vice president on record! He is sitting underwater with a minus 18 approval! 🤣😂🤣

@RobertP71352395 @UndisScot The river Gryffe has got a lot bigger especially a lot wider since I left in 1973. Where are the tanneries in relation to this pic

@UndisScot These cafe’s look like Bridge of Weir! Strangely the whole Clyde valley has been submerged!!!

WHERE IN SCOTLAND? Where is this? This is part of an image that appears somewhere on Undiscovered Scotland. Please reply with your answers. We'll award kudos to the first correct response before posting the next in the series tomorrow. Some signs have been obscured.

Trump says his life was better before he became president. Dude, everyone's lives were better before you became president!

@_IanAdams @but_cyclists @DC_PoliceEEMD @VisionZeroSW @DC_PCC @AlisonHernandez @DC_PoliceOps Love the calm and measured responses

While many of the residents were sleeping this morning, from 7:30am we monitored 21 vehicles travelling at excess speed and above the enforcement threshold, though a village on the #A3052 in #EastDevon. One was travelling as fast as 66mph. While many criticise the voluntary work of our Team, others like myself, feel that this is #unacceptable driver behaviour, so we have recorded their details and have passed them to @DC_Police. These motorists will be hearing from their #RoadSafetyTeam, very shortly. #NotInOurVillage #DontRiskIt #SpeedKills #Fatal5 #CSW #Education #VisionZeroSouthWest

I can’t believe how GOATED people of Hungary 🇭🇺 are. President of the world’s most powerful and richest country got involved in Hungary’s internal election. Sent his Vice President to publicly endorse Victor Orbàn America wanted him in power Hungary rejected it and elected a 45 year old instead. Thank you Hungarians for showing the US 🇺🇸 its place
