@dieterjamesguy@Worldsource24 Sadly yes.
No official word yet on number, or extent of their injuries. A press conference is expected shortly, so there might be news soon
@gotthegistofit London marathon this weekend. It only seems like 5 minutes since we both ran it in 2021. Really hoping the new treatment has the desired effect
(PS: I continue stable - must monitoring next week)
@MilitaryBanter You can usually tell who has self diagnosed their PTSD because they don’t realise it’s a specific diagnosis and they use it as a bucket for feeling bad after something nasty (ie a normal reaction)
@SpencerHakimian I’d be wary of these graphs as the previous year shows the whole year and we’re only 4 months in to this one, and the horizontal axis is short (was early 2024 an outlying high?) That said, people I know are planning to visit places other than US this year
After 15 years of pursuing the wrong direction, @TaylorWimpey exits the Winstanley & York Rdd #Regeneration.
Only 139 homes built. @wandbc now left with the fallout of a strategy many saw as flawed from the start.

@BBCNews I think the concern is that this is being done without any form of due process. It’s not only those who have carried out illegal activities, and there seems to be no recourse or appeal.
We’re deeply saddened to hear of Joe Thompson’s death. He showed great courage fighting blood cancer for over 10 years, while still playing football. On behalf of our community, we wish his family all the love and support we can at this difficult time.

It’s now confirmed that Toby Carvery did indeed fell the Whitewebbs Oak, on the same day that evidence is emerging the tree may have been 500 years old. The lame excuse they gave that the tree was “dead” is not only false (ecologists have found green buds on the felled branches) but in any case inadequate: ancient oaks host many unique species in their dying phase, which can take a century or more.
@tobycarvery now need to apologise for this desecration of our natural heritage & reassure us all that trees elsewhere on their estate are safe; if not, customers should boycott them as a company.
The fact that a company like Tony Carvery can apparently just decide to fell a tree older than the United Kingdom without consulting the authorities, arboriculturalists or ecologists shows that our current tree protection regime is clearly inadequate. In this comment piece for the Evening Standard, I look deeper at the problems with legal tree protections, & some potential solutions.
