    2. That could buy a week's bus pass for an hotel's worth of asylum seekers.

    3. How does that level of stupidity arise?

  3. This evening I learned, to my great surprise, that Eärendil was a marina.

  4. The old lumieres lasted 1950–2024 and might have gone on much longer had Management simply replaced the incandescent lamps with LED equivalents.

  5. EV people.

    Is there an electric truck that isn't just an SUV with a shelf on the back but actually prioritises load space over cab space, that could have been bought in the US early this year?

  9. Good drama; enjoyed, solid 8/10⭐ on IMDB from me.

    But I'm puzzled.

    You could just do "a production in Welsh."

    Or you could portray a Welsh speaking community in the drama, complete with code switching when appropriate.
