  1. Wow, today was the 349th time I've completed a #parkrun and it was the 500th event at my "home" run...

    And on the day we commemorate those who gave their lives for our collective freedom #PoppyAppeal #LestWeForget

  2. CW: UK Politics, Israel-Gaza war

    Any politician who's wearing a poppy while simultaneously cheering on a war that involves wholesale slaughter of civilians can get in the fucking sea.

    If you are looking for a challenging and rewarding event, I encourage you to sign up.

    Having done it in the past, and thoroughly enjoyed it, I've signed up once again to raise money for a vital
    #charity that supports current members of the #military and #veterans alike.

  5. #SlapBands or #SlapBracelets must be up there with some of the most useless tat ever invented. Other than the obvious getting kids to part with their pocket money (for fundraising at least in today's case), what is the point? More useless junk that'll likely end up in landfill.

    Yes, The Boy came back with one today, for the #PoppyAppeal.
