A typical European car is parked 92% of the time. It spends 1/5th of its driving time looking for parking. Its 5 seats only move 1.5 people. 86% of its fuel never reaches the wheels, and most of the energy that does, moves the car, not the people. Sound efficient? HT @ellenmacarthurfdn.bsky.social

Abysmal yet inevitable! 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 'Liberal Democrat deputy leader Daisy Cooper said the honours [for former Tory ministers] were "rewards for the failure of a dreadful Conservative government that was rightly kicked out of office".' Totally agree, Daisy. It's ghastly! www.bbc.com/news/article...

Sat on a bus today. Driver had the radio on - a rarity. Some of my all-time favourite songs came on: Rainy Days and Mondays (1971, but didn't even chart then 🤯🤷‍♂️) Tears of a Clown (No.1 Sept 1970) Fernando (No.1 May 1976) Later a car drove by playing Message in a Bottle (No.1 Sept 1979)! Wonderful❤🤩

#BillieJeanKing receives Hollywood Walk of Fame star www.bbc.com/sport/tennis... Never has there been such a deserved accolade as this for Billie-Jean! 👏⭐ An incredible achievement - she has done so much for world sport, particularly for women, and not just in tennis. A wonderful legacy! 🙏

Universal theme park for Bedfordshire confirmed by Starmer www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Excellent news! A theme park we can get to on a relatively short bus journey. Got to wait a while, though!

Government considers nationalising British Steel www.bbc.com/news/article... Precarious state of the steel industry. Sounds like a good plan. Suddenly an earworm kicks in as I read the article: "We're Only Making Plans for Nigel" (1979) by XTC. Love that song! Can you figure out its relevance? 🤔😅
