"Dear Diary,
Nadhim Zahawi joined Reform UK today! 😊 His experience in government will be invaluable - he has promised to advise us on tax avoidance, fiddling expenses and breaking the Ministerial Code"
Plumbing 🤷♀️ Farming

Let’s call the whole thing off.

Clarrie: Keiraluv, is your bag still packed from when you was running away?
Keira: nods (silently)
Clarrie: let's you and Granma have an adventure together with MY REDUNDANCY MONEY.
Keira: nods. Grabs bag and Clarrie's hand.
Both smile and LEAVE!

Hello everyone, Jeff (@tonkerthomas) from Ambridge On The Couch here. We've finally caught up with everybody else and have set up an account over here. Please follow us so we can figure out who all the #TheArchers people are!
This is completely random but is there any mileage in the theory that Akram wiped the cctv when he was in The Bull doing plumbing stuff? Jolene left him alone for ages while she was chatting to Alice 🤔 #TheArchers

Chocolate boxes, bars, and treats from Jenkins’ Emporium in a Christmas setting.
A tiny bit of shameless self-promotion because the gifting season is creeping up on us. If you’re after something delicious, handcrafted, and ethical, my chocolate boxes, bars, and treats make really lovely gifts. Treat yourself, treat someone else, or both, I won’t judge! Reshares appreciated! 🍫✨

The cheerful flowers of #gorse can be seen practically all year round in this part of #wicklow #ireland In days gone by wearing a sprig of gorse was thought to prevent a traveller from becoming lost. Now, we just have sat-nav :(
As winter flooding looms, it's worth noting that a young street tree in an asphalt surface can prevent 60% of the rain that falls on it from reaching the ground, even when not in leaf.
Increasing the low levels of urban tree cover should be a strategic national priority.

A stunning turquoise lake with mountains and a glacier in the background. Conifer trees line the shore on the right side and there are grasses popping out of the water in the foreground. The blue sky has white puffy clouds.

With all the recent intense rainfall, many parts of the woods are gloriously full of water.
The forests, bogs, + other wild habitats we've removed once retained colossal amounts of water, preventing flooding downstream.
Between that and climate breakdown, we're creating a perfect storm for floods.
I have obtained a copy of the Flood Advisory issued by Met Éireann to local authorities today showing an orange level flood risk for many parts of East and South. I cannot see why it is not made public as I believe it is in the public interest to share it so I am sharing it.
Finally. A pointless post that in the past was adequately dealt with by councillors. Created by Conservatives because it was the only way they could win elections, on a micro-turnout where no one cared about the outcome.

Ministers @darraghobrientd.bsky.social & Timmy Dooley approved to advance Marine Protected Area legislation in the Maritime Area Planning Act.
A General Scheme will now be prepared, which will need sign off again by gov, then legislation can be drafted.

How about speeding things up by chatting to CSO Ireland to get locations for 72,000 (yep!) vacant dwellings announced in September & apply use it or lose it They should also chat with Revenue to understand why only 2300 properties paid the Vacant Homes Tax #DerelictIreland #VacantIreland
