Factoid: This T45 brochure was sent to me by Leyland’s Irish subsidiary in 1985 along with a load of material (including a European dealer network booklet). You don’t need me to tell you the T45 was a trendsetting design when launched in 1980 but I think it still looks modern today…(1)
Early interest check, but any UK folks after an MX-5? I have plans next year that involve it not being around, and as I'm unlikely to drive it much in the winter, I'll be aiming to sell it soon.
It’s your one hour reminder! Join us both at 8pm (UK) to chat about Recharging ‘Round Britain. Find out how we got on, what we think now we’ve finished, how much it cost, and whatever else you’d like to know! youtube.com/live/KYdSHza...

Listening to Looking Out, and I'm slightly embarrassed by how much @drewpasmith.com sounds like me defending the choice of, and living with, a large Lexus over, say, something car enthusiasts consider "characterful". 🤐
EA just announced Bonesaw, a game where you play a noble and handsome prince who has no choice but to murder journalists who disagree with him

M'collegue, @ajpbradley.bsky.social, blesses us with his presence this week on the News Show. He has "a theory" about one story - having heard it, I agree. We also have a quiz for you, thanks to one person. I get more excited about the third New New Car News, erm, car than the other two.

This might actually be worse than the “phallus shapes drawn in bodily fluid” pattern of the corridor carpets in my apartment building in the US. This is the only photo I have, and it really minimises it. 🫤
JosephScrimshaw@josephscrimshaw.bsky.social · 2d agoAnother edition of HOW HAUNTED IS THIS HOTEL HALLWAY? I feel the alarming x-shape lights and the jagged carpet pattern are metaphysical tools deployed to keep the copious lurking spirits at bay. 7 out of 10 untethered souls.

Andrew Clews@crackedwindscreen.bsky.social · 2d agoOh crikey. Forgot to say, the #RechargingRoundBritain livestream will actually be tomorrow (ie. Wednesday 5 August) night at 20:00 BST, as we roundup the full trip including charging costs etc. We'd love for you to be there and to send any questions you have in. Apologies for the lack of notice.
The world has forced this to change several times, and I have a very small brain so lost track…

I appear to have a functioning office for my return to work tomorrow morning. I can't say I have a tidy, functioning office, and blur will be needed on any call backgrounds for another week or so, but it's definitely a start. 👍
I miss the days when all we had to worry about was a bunch of harmless weirdos doing some "yogic flying".
