Having kids is basically a feedback loop of wishing that you had time on your own to get on with things and then feeling lonely because they're not there with you.

Who is going to be the one to tell #Badenoch that UK North Sea oil production peaked in 1999, over a quarter of a century ago?

Or that the UK doesn’t even use much of what it produces, it exports most of it. So more licenses to drill will do nothing to the fuel bills of British people.

We currently get most of the crude oil the UK uses from the USA, Norway and Kemi’s childhood home of Nigeria.

@neil @scott any pointers on where to start troubleshooting a Kobo that doesn’t seem to want to display any more? It’s powering up, get the little LED light up and the display flickers briefly but that’s it 😔

Today I learned that d'Artagnan was a real historical figure and not entirely fictional.

To be honest part of me is still getting over him not being a dog.

@acawley amazing news Ash, great to hear!
@dctrud I was meant to check if they were coming on the train today

@botvolution yeah have been for well over a week now, prior to this we regularly get the tankers refuelling things over us, normally stuff heading back to the US
