  1. Ordered a new #Toyota #Aygo in late April. The projected date for it to be delivered to the dealership was 28 July back then. It got pulled forward to 21 July shortly thereafter. However, looking at the tracking in the #MyT app, it apparently is still on its way to Toyota's hub in #Derbyshire.

    Had a quick call with the dealership today and they said that their system says that it's at the hub already, but there are ... logistical challenges so they can't deliver it to the dealership just yet. (Other cars are affected, too, he said.) Their system now shows 8 August as the ETA.

    At least it didn't fall off the lorry/train. 😂

  3. The #UK #Government has confirmed plans to reorganise local government in 14 more areas of #England, replacing two-tier council structures with new unitary authorities. The reforms aim to simplify services, reduce duplication and cut bureaucracy, with savings expected to be reinvested in priorities such as road maintenance and social care. Ministers say the changes will strengthen local leadership, support devolution and boost economic growth by improving planning, housing and infrastructure. Overall, 134 councils are expected to become 38 unitary authorities. The latest areas include #Kent and Medway, #Hertfordshire, #Nottinghamshire and #Nottingham, #Lancashire, #Devon, #Lincolnshire, #Gloucestershire, #Derbyshire, #Warwickshire, Worcestershire, #Oxfordshire, Leicester and Rutland, East Sussex and Brighton and Hove, and Staffordshire. Decisions on West Sussex and Cambridgeshire and Peterborough will be made later.

  13. The Peak District is on fire this week. There's one #wildfire a stone's throw from my house; you can see the smoke from my window. It's now on the third or fourth day of burning, and I'm not even sure what started this one. One closer to Manchester was started by a young woman shooting fireworks at the hills in memory of her friend who drowned in a reservoir. Another was caused by a disposable barbecue left unattended.

    I despair at the stupidity of some people, I really do.
