If it’s the same as the UK pronunciation of it, “Vincent please don’t goph” 😅

Similar in northern England. We’ve got trees in many low-lying places, but fells, moors and peaks all devoid of them are a big part of the landscape here.

Me: “Right. Your app may crash a lot, but there’s stuff only Paramount + has that I want to watch… so, here’s a fiver. I even paid it through PayPal just like you wanted. No, Basic will do, I can live with ads. So, can I watch those shows now please?”

Partial solar eclipse as viewed from Stoke-on-Trent, UK

#eclipse! Went colourblind for about ten minutes after watching the sun do its thing with the moon… might have.

They met on the bridge.
It was love at first sight.
He was an American.
She was a Pole.
