I love the story behind #BethansRock but and I admire what #PooleMuseum did in response. Superb public engagement

Bethan's Rock is a small grey stone on display at Poole Museum in Poole, England. It was donated to the museum in 2019 by a five-year-old girl named Bethan, and it has since attracted significant attention on social media and become the museum's most famous object. - Wikipedia

This is just adorable

Just a reminder that from tomorrow EU #petpassports for #dogs and #cats resident in the UK won't be valid. You'll need a UK animal health certificate costing typically between £100 and £350. The rules are complicated and time sensitive so familiarise yourself soon! #Brexit www.gov.uk/taking-your-...

Hey @thespectator1828.bsky.social can I have one of these jobs where you get to live in a wonderful place outside of the UK, crap at British people for going there and - the horrors - using social media and get paid lavishly by the Telegraph and the Speccie to grouse about your countrymen

In honour of the Sunday Telegraph's editor and offical maddest columnist, we have created the Allister Heath headline generator... stirring-fox-7e1fab.netlify.app

Ok, semi-unrelated, but in the niche genre of excellent marching band performances during sports games, you have to watch the crown jewel: William Bilal on trombone, live. (skip to 14:36 if the link doesn’t automatically) youtu.be/5qBrPtrVbCQ?...

Have signed the UK parliamentary petition to be kind to #dogs and reduce the maximum noise allowable for consumer #fireworks from from 120db to 90db. Please consider doing the same petition.parliament.uk/signatures/1...

Petition: Reduce the maximum noise level for consumer fireworks from 120 to 90 decibels

We think each year, individuals suffer because of loud fireworks. We believe horses, dogs, cats, livestock and wildlife can be terrified by noisy fireworks and many people find them intolerable.

Speaking as a member of @gmb.org.uk I have to say that I’ve been appalled by Antonia Bance’s recent positions on housing and asylum seekers. I’m astonished that @tuc.org.uk had her in such a senior role for so long. Wrongheaded, intransigent and belligerent. Maybe she would be happier in Reform?

As someone who worked in fashion and studied in Oxford, I am unashambed to state that, with my brain in neutral, I am enjoying My Oxford Year just as much as I enjoyed Emily in Paris. Boo to intellectual snobbery. Yay to silly fun, amazing outfits and charming romcom. A little light amid the drak

Good grief @googlemeet.bsky.social is a dreadful product isn't it? Come back Zoom. All is forgiven

You’ve alluded to this before but the full story is brilliant

One other 7/7 thread today. Because I think how the bus network got running again is a real testament to some serious heroes that day: The bus drivers and staff who got that network running again and got London home that night. And TfL/the Mayor disobeyed the Security Services to make it happen /1

4/4 so have not confided in others. So please share this far and wide in the hope that the victims of Ireland's Mother and Baby and County Home institutions learn about the scheme and can make an application with the support of Fréa Renewing Roots. frea.org.uk www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

Good grief. I am old enough to remember the political right in the UK losing its collective mind when the hugely talented Richard Bowker was put in charge of the UK’s railways at the tender age of 36. How times change
