Last Notes npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi My guess is that the data gives the mean average. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi UK citizen, UK born. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Climate change affects everything. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi It is impossible not to feel sad, angry or both every day now. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi How worried should we be about this? npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi It isn't just that they want us all to have digital identification, it's who they want to do it. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi A ruler, pencil, scissors and some grid/graph/squared paper works for next to nothing. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi The rhetoric surrounding #Covid has led to most people believing it will do them no harm. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi For once a #SouthernWater has done the right thing. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi The latest (that we know of) Banksy streetart on the London Court was very quickly covered. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Aargh! What a nightmare. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi School dentists in the 1960s made sure children didn't suffer the toothaches they suffer now. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Using the bus (tram/train/tube) & not a car helps lower #carbonemissions npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi I'm with you. Beautiful to look at but it'd only take one slip of my size 3's to say goodbye to my retirement plans. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Sadly, on narrow island roads I don't think substantial bikes would stop vehicles passing too close. Oh goodness, it's very tricky to retro fit the UK with suitable facilities for cycles. We have nice bike paths near me but they don't go anywhere practical. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Effective though cargo bikes are, it's not the bike that's revolutionary, it's the cycletrack which looks to be separated from both cars & pedestrians. With safe cycle paths deliveries & so much more could happen by bike. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi I could knit your cat a cat snow-suit. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Sadly true. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Private healthcare companies are unprincipled leeches. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Some private sector healthcare depends on the NHS as backup when something doesn't go to plan e.g. an operation. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Only the NHS treats common conditions when they aren't profitable. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Sounds like a boring job🤔 What are you reading at the moment? npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Hey #nature! It is #autum not #spring. #flowers #plants #woodland npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi #silentsunday npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi He doesn't give a toss as he's not going to be around long enough to see the worst of it (I hope). npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi One thing we need is a way for the less mobile to have the same advantages of fewer cars. Not everyone has a mobility scooter. Perhaps a good start would be to include more benches in pedestrian areas. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi I'm rather puzzled as to why anyone would buy a smart air fryer. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi We can persist, we will persist. We have refused to be brainwashed. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi :face_hug: npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi It's true but it isn't a competition. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Only when they run somebody over. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi They need to refund every penny with interest right now. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Thank you for posting this. I'm old but not what I'd class as elderly as yet! I have balance issues from a chronic condition and I can't go out alone for a walk anymore. I can regain balance by standing still a moment but if bikes whizz by on our shared bike/ walking path (previously a railway line) it's all too fast for me to stay upright. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Satest UK spatula suggestions? npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi How is it not distracted driving, to keep checking the blue line? npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Well that's depressing twice over. There's certainly more evidence of AI on the web with poor writing everywhere. Why do we need it at all? The mistakes are ridiculous. Every now and again I email someone with a screenshot to show them what a hash AI made of their website. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi 2/2 npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi True. They never have anyonev the least bit like me. However, if they did it wouldn't make a difference as I'm not easily influenced by images. What would make a difference: routes safe enough for an old, disabled, slightly wobbly person; safe bike parking at stores & GPs so you don't come out to find your (locked) bike gone or your wheels squished; methods to get shopping home (panniers aren't enough for a week's groceries). 1/2 npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Another nightmare. Politicians rake in money, patients fight fires to get fair treatment. It's depressing beyond words. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Thanks.Will look at those. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Progress is being made on eco-electric heating but is anyone considering the whole picture. Glasgow can get very cold. Eco-friendly electric heating isn't enough on it's own. It won't succeed until there are no winter powercuts & electricity is affordable. Some progress is being made on the latter by heating methods that use less. However, what do people who only have eco-electric heating (without storage) do when storms or road works cut supplies. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Cities get ranked, towns get consider but remote villages and rural areas are totally ignored. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Well that's grim but rather interesting. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi #Starmer should consider replacing #WesStreeting given his view that #forced #medical #treatment is acceptable. To even #voice it indicates a poor understanding of the #history of mass non-medical decisions without #patient #inclusion. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi “#Illness caused by #obesity causes people to take an extra four sick days a year on average, while many others are forced out of work altogether.” npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi There had to be a sneaky catch didn't there. #Eton start paying #vat now but #claim #money back for the previous 10 years! The start date should be the same on both. This is ridiculous. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Lockdown isn't the key factor here. Owing to lockdown something else has been discovered. It's bad & needs exploring. Children living in outback Australia who can't attend a physical school still learn to communicate. In the UK , doesn't communication start at home before school age. What is happening in homes that results in children not understanding basics. TV, radio, phones and computers were were available to many. I assume under 5s weren't left alone all day. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Two wrongs don't make a right. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi and smelly! npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Couldn't afford to stop work for a degree earlier. My first degree was psychology & I loved every minute. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi I agree. These were valuable but sadly, little else. It may be owing to my specific 1960s/70s secondary modern school where children who failed the 11-plus were sent. The 11-plus proved useless as an indicator as I joied Mensa after school & won a studentship for my PhD after I did my 1st degree in my 50s. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi My early education didn't really begin to give me techniques beyond basic maths & English until I got to degree level. At that point techniques became part of it. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi The quashing of cultural identities has happened all over the word by various nations. I just learnt about Norway & Sweden forbidding the use of Sámi (1899). Also Denmark & the Faroese language (early 20th century). We should know better now & encourage all the World's cultural identities. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi It was & in Hooke's Law is still seared into my brain😆 although I haven't needed it even once. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Our physics teacher used to whack pupils on the head with a copy of Nelkon. This tome was so heavy that I eventually hurt my shoulder carrying it in my satchel. Pleased to say I never got bashed with it. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi I remember it well. Funnily enough neither me nor my brother thought twice about having to get up (on instruction) to change it. In the 60s small tasks weren't considered the end of the world, you just did it. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Not to mention getting up to retune (with luck & no high wind) the tv to the other channel. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Yesterday (I think) I followed a link I was interested in (from I don't remember who) on here & it took me to the link below. The article makes good points. Goodness, does this news media's readers understand words such as kompromat (from the Russian компрома? We had to look it up!😂 npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi This may be based on the Tory belief that posh babies wouldn't get near a jam sandwich. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Not wishing to be rude but I'd have thought that would encourage rats and mice. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Thank you for sharing. Percy is one determined stoat (is it a stoat? I'm guessing). npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi When did it become illiegal to hold a sign outside a court. Free speech and democracy is over. Dystopian society is here. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi What is meant by 2-tier is that the #wealthy & #ellite will have #healthcare access but for everyone else it will be added to the struggle to #heat or #Eat. The #NHS has been all but destroyed. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi What they don't get is that it can also seriously damage the healthy young, fit people. There are going to be a lot of people with heart, lung, brain, immune problems etc in the future because they had covid in the past. Even mild covid can do damage. Vaccines are great but they aren't 100% and they wane over time. The vaccines protect from severe covid. Unfortuantely even mild covid can lead to problems. It's a nasty lottery. npub1x4tdtda6h76sqkzltmvydryryceclyregv9st7v6phz7dk0s55xsld7ev0 Delphi Congratualtions on your Ow.💐
