  1. Why hire someone in to the C-suite and expect them to use AI?

    Why search for someone with decades of experience, a deep level understanding of their subject matter from years seeing first hand what works, what fails, what matters, what's fluff - only to then demand that they defer all of that to a chat bot?

    Brought to you by today's abortive interview with a CEO who wanted to know my experience of "applying AI to meet regulatory approval".

  5. Join the GREAT BRITISH SPRING CLEAN this Saturday!

    Do join us and Wellingborough Town Council for the annual Keep Britain Tidy Great British Spring Clean! This year it takes place on Saturday 28th March and we are litter picking the town centre!

    We will set up a recycling station on Market Street from 9:30 to litter pick between 10am-12 midday. We have litter picking equipment and bags, bring some gloves, see you there!

  8. I suppose we need a reminder every 25 years or so. We seem to be overdue. #wombles #totp

  9. This explains why I was able to buy a Womble pencil tin to use at school #TOTP #wombles

  12. Possibly the weirdest line I've ever read in a book's author bio:
    "Her own Womble was disembowelled in the name of this research."
    Emily Cockayne, Rummage
    (She wanted to find out whether the stuffing was reused material, as would befit a Womble. Yes, it turns out, although I suspect the acrylic and nylon exterior was probably less in the Womble spirit.)

  13. The Wombles were briefly aired in Sweden, and are a faded memory of my childhood. I had no idea they were going strong up until at least 13yrs ago!

  15. My small contribution to #WorldCleanupDay2024, collected on my walk back from the supermarket.

    All single-use items, many of which were plastic bottles, or aluminium cans.

    Now in my recycling bin, or alternative in the case of coffee cups & crunchy plastics.

    In many respects quite subversive as a TV series, it introduced an entire generation to care for the environment and recycling in particular.

  21. Utter nonsense on @BBCRadio4 , talking about "the most prized lawn in the country" in the wrong part of London. Why go to to talk about the square at ? AELTC isn't even the most prized bit of grass in Wimbledon - that's .

  23. Dear Friends of a #different #Kind, 🪶
    I was on
    #Tooting #common this #morning. Not 'Commons' as the SUV #elites #delight in dividing for their #unthink-tanks to drive through. ​:gi:​

    A group of
    #Wombles from #Wimbledon have planted ye #olde sturdy #oaks from a golf course, also an invasion onto common land. I also noted two #trees broken in two by spoiled #children. In a sense we are all #spoiled and then grow under trees or #daisies. Or on the moon or Mars of the future, in some #extravagant ostentation of irrelevance and #irreverence. Dead is dead. 👻

    Half a tree may grow. Half a planet may
    #survive. Maybe. It is a question of #inevitability Mr Anderson, Nothing Neo under the Sol Matrix, stars or #multiverse... or is there? ​:ablobcatcoffee:​

    Always there is. More. More
    #incomprehensible, more to #wonder. More to do #better. What fun for the #unicorns and trans-rainbows and critters we save. ​:ablobcatbouncefast:​

  24. Litter warning after hundreds of animals injured in Devon and Cornwall

    bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devo

    The Great British Spring Clean runs 15th to 31st March.

    Do your bit and tidy our nation. We're the dirty nation of Europe.

    No bin? No excuse (to drop it, or stuff it in a hedge). Take your litter home.

  26. My mate works at Wimbledon Football Club, and last night I stupidly asked her if they make tiny shirts for Wombles

    Tonight she sent me this 😂

  30. Group clears 1,300kg of waste from beach in 2023

    bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cjqp48

    Wonderful work by this group of volunteers.

    Sadly, litter is a world-wide problem, whatever form it takes.

    We all have a duty to keep the planet tidy and as habitable as possible for all.

    Those who produce packaging need to reduce it as much as possible, and #StopGreenWashing us into believing they are environmentally-friendly when they're not.
