Considering I have lots of colleagues in Mumbai thatโ€™s fairly bad. I was also quite confident. The only places Iโ€™ve visited though are Goa & Hyderabad. China again pretty dire. Bermuda was new to me

Where have all the bands gone? | Datawrapper Blog In this Weekly Chart, we look at songs at the top of music charts and the artists behind them.

Big shout out to all the reply guys telling me that bands still exist! Yes, I am aware of that fact, my comment was slightly tongue in cheek.

However, if you want to see some data about the decline of bands, check out this link:

UK shifts older wind and solar farms to fixed-price deals to reduce price shocks Move marks governmentโ€™s most radical attempt to weaken impact of soaring wholesale gas prices on electricity costs

Excellent news; Milliband says we need to โ€œdouble down, not back down on the mission for clean energyโ€

Imagine if Reform UK Ltd were in power - their only solution is to drill in the North Sea & remain in-hoc to oil producing countries.

I was youngโ€™ish & fit, but not very well trained. Ran the first half too quick (1hr 40m) & hit the wall at about 17 miles. The last 9 miles were terrible, finished in 4h10m, missing my sub-4 goal. It was also a wet & cold day & yes the DOMS were terrible for a week ๐Ÿ˜‚

Itโ€™s in the new Reform-friendly BBC Charter that they have to publish a migrant-bashing article every week.

Any context or impartiality on the topic is not tolerated or theyโ€™ll have Nigel to answer to.

Survived my annual appraisal again, which means I get another year of being Sisyphus eternally pushing a massive fuck-off boulder up a hill.
