The x-ray #microtomography instrument we built at @GeosciencesEd provides the second-fastest (and non-destructive) way to find out what's inside a Kinder Egg. Can optionally be used for serious research on rocks ...
"I love to count Reform Members of Parliament. 1 ... 1 MP Ah-ha-ha. 2 ... 2 MPs. Ah-ha-ha. 3 ... 3 MPs. Ah-ha-ha. 4 ... 4 MPs. Ah-ha-ha. 5 ... 5 MPs. Ah-ha-ha. 6 ... 6 MPs ... oh, wait ..."
The deepest, most vicious, circle of hell should be reserved for those people who exit or enter pubs when it's cold and who leave the door hanging wide open behind them. Bamboo splinters under the fingernails should be only the beginning for those bastards.
2023: Then Conservative MP and Environment Secretary Therese Coffey says we don't have experience with rain coming from the east which is why the response to Storm Babet was so poor 2024: Therese Coffey is appointed Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire
Today is the birthday of former Germany striker, Stefan Kuntz. His unfortunate name became a long-running joke on Fantasy Football League in the 90s. And here’s the John Motson clip which started it all off. Just brilliant.

Fair to say that it's a bit of a shirt-front in Multan. Still time for England to collapse though. #PAKvENG #bbccricket #tms
Looks like America has a weaker negative europium anomaly and more HREE than the other nations
Trump is lying to you. America is NOT a “failing nation.”
This is is brilliant - fair play to the lad with the spade.
'A trial of an incapacitating drug'. Volunteers from 41 Royal Marine Commando are filmed engaging in a field exercise after imbibing the hallucinogen LSD in 1964. Film: IWM MGH 4464

"...the British pint is simply too big to comfortably enjoy." To which I respond "bollocks it is". theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
This is absolute art. The field, the fading light, the celebrations…
Pop quiz. You're in a pub. Dog, on a lead, jumps up onto the table top, where you're sitting. Should the dog owner 1) apologise or 2) swear at you for objecting to the dog on your table? Most dog owners seem considerate. A minority have no respect for others.
Sri Lanka win! 🇱🇰 A wonderful comeback and a thoroughly deserved victory at the Oval. #ENGvSL #BBCCricket
“It’s a hammering, and Sri Lanka have been outstanding. England have been blasé, a bit flimsy at times.” What are your thoughts on England’s defeat at The Oval? #bbccricket
Kes, directed by Ken Loach, is a classic!
