Unfortunately, it's more likely to be Hal.

Petition to appoint Holly as Minister for AI.

The government had exactly this thought and introduced the National Parking Platform. Take up by councils has been, erm, limited. So, as absolutely nobody could possibly have predicted, we now have the situation below.

from xkcd:

There are 14 competing standards.
"This is ridiculous, we need to develop one universal standard!"
Soon: There are 15 competing standards.

There's a bit of Dougal in all of us.

Four increasingly zoomed in shots of Father Dougal (from Father Ted) staring at a big red button with a sign above it saying DO NOT PRESS.

You're all wrong anyway.

I took a total of two photos, which means it must have been a good meet. Fabulous to see you both, and @emmajg.bsky.social, @adrianclarke.bsky.social and @takona.co.uk. Great show put on by @denialvibes.bsky.social and the Retropower crew. 👌

If anyone makes it to the Retropower Summer Meet at Triumph on Saturday in an MG Metro Turbo, I have a card for you... 😉

Nice Jaaaaaaag.

Cool Beetle is cool.

These are a bit more my thing.

Back at BMM today for Tucked, because it's local, free to members and why not. Not entirely my scene but I admire the craft, if not the competing sound systems. 🔊🙉

What's the class smaller than Kei?

More JDM coolness.

Mike Shaw@mikeshaw· May 23

Forza Horizon thing at BMM. JDM-tastic. (Some bloke on stage who was in F&F apparently. Big queue for signed posters. 🤷‍♂️)

I've used this far too often lately.

Picture in the style of a medieval tapestry, of some people in front of a house, one of whom is gesturing to an empty expanse, with the caption, "Behold! The field in which I grow my fucks. Lay thine eyes upon it and thou shalt see that it is barren."

Minimal movement for the next 23 1/2 hours. Already impressed with the lead Lambo going through a gap no wider than a Golf. #N24

Up north-ish this weekend. Called in at The Carding Shed Holmfirth for coffee & cake on the way home.

A superb day out at #Rustival, lovely to spend time with @joehallenbeck.bsky.social, @arressveetwin.bsky.social & @emmajg.bsky.social, and see so many others. Roll on Rustival 5! Tried to pick out a few cars not already posted amongst the popular ones everyone snapped. 📷

Mike Shaw@mikeshaw· Apr 18

There was supposed to be a pic attached to that...
