Was like this in the 90s too but I can imagine it's even worse now

Birdsong and nothing else but the view across the Avon Valley #NewForest
Lovely 60k ride around the New Forest this morning in the Spring sunshine ๐. New bike is fantastic ๐
๐๐๐ So pleased to have worked on this - a proper environmental legacy. Just a little bit left to do in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight โ

Perfect solar curve today - 24 kWh generated. Put 42 kWh of electricity in the car last night so basically 170 miles of free driving ๐๐โก๐
Good place for new housing/green spaces
If you want help, drop the tariffs
Turns out net zero is cheaper than a single fossil fuel crisis. ๐คท
The sooner we build on clean, home-grown energy, the sooner we stop handing the keys to foreign gas markets. But we also need market reform now - so customers, not just corporations, actually reap the benefits of renewables.
Received this in the post today. Been hugely controversial locally (as all changes to car parking seem to be) but I really support what @forestryengland.bsky.social are doing.
It costs money to manage and protect the New Forest. People who drive and park should pay towards the cost of doing so.
Solar curve showing the arrival of the Saharan dust cloud quite nicely. Milky skies now
World book day by bike. Stretching the fairytale theme a bit. Definitely not just wearing last year's Halloween costumes...๐น๐๐ดโโ๏ธ
Three fighter jets just ripped overhead in Romsey, Hampshire. Can't remember seeing that before except when the airshow was on nearby or the red arrows were doing something in London

I've no idea what the commentators are talking about during the men's half pipe finals but I'm loving it all the same ๐ #WinterOlympics
Certainly feels that way. I know "we're not made of sugar" and good waterproofs can make a massive difference but even so this year has felt like a massive slog when you mainly use a bike to get around. ๐ดโโ๏ธ๐ง๏ธ๐
It hasn't even officially started yet and I'm already watching the #curling in the Winter Olympics ๐ฅ
What a difference a day makes: yesterday and today
The Tadburn stream in Romsey from my lunchtime walk today. Sadly looks like a few properties were flooded. Spoke separately to a couple of old guys who said they had never seen it so high before. The EA had just arrived to try and start pumping it out. #stormchandra
Nobody wants them latest

Ask #traitors their name? They would have to lie and pick a faithful, which narrows the pool for who a traitor must be.
Same for fools driving into flood water and instantly flooding the engine
I like bluesky but one thing I miss from Twitter is the videos of people crashing their white BMWs, Audi's etc into other objects when it's a little bit snowy or icy.
Just never appear on my feed now. If you've got any please send through
