I enjoy walking (including football!), cycling and scuba diving.
Now retired from a career in I.T. that included punched cards in its early days.
Wish we were still in the EU and that I had a bit more confidence in our recently elected government, although it is good to feel the country is at least being run by adults again.

If you're a white person on the Fediverse and you've never seen someone called a slur, or threats made against them--congratulations! You don't follow any dirtbags. But, it's happening every day and it's being hidden from you.

I hope the nesting #birds like their new moss dispenser. 😄

“Solar is taking away all this land [0.3% of UK land, less than airports] that produces food [and biofuels], when you can build a Sizewell C [in 25 years for 1000% the cost] with less impact [if you ignore the waste and dump it somewhere I don’t walk my dog].” https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/mar/21/lincolnshire-solar-farm-controversy-british-countryside

This picture has stayed with me: Farage posing with extreme far-right activists, December 2024. I never got to the bottom of where it was taken, or who a couple of the activists were.

If anyone has any more info on it, my contact info is linked in my bio, or DM me.
