My money is on “long term weather forecasting” for this winter predicting lengthy cold spells that risk collapsing the grid.
Our household is having a bit of a sweepstake on what the actual problem was that prompted the 3-day supplies advice to be rushed out quite so clearly unplanned. I had ‘water gets rationed’ so I’m quids in.

Absolutely floored by bus prices! My 2yo is obsessed with vehicles (diggers = the holy grail but a colourful bus will do) so we treated him and his baby brother to a bus ride from our village outside Swansea to the library, 2 miles away, to borrow yet another digger book. It's a journey we do regularly in 6 mins by car.

Finally found substantive proof that I am not middle class. The NMKOTN family motor would NOT have been penalised under Labour’s suggested new car weight* tax and even brand new today, the equivalent wouldn’t be penalised by the ‘luxury car tax’. (*mass)

Creating a tax break for those who have not made any other provision for retirement that those who have don't get is beyond stupid (and I don't think pensioners should get an income tax break denied to working people full stop).

It’s so windy I’ve had to dump bodies in my wheelie bins to stop them blowing over.

I’m not sure if the first widespread network outages come just before or just after an early election. I’m struggling to decide which would be sweeter irony.

I texted my children that we got the puppy they’ve been begging me for and sent them a link with pictures. 🐶When they clicked on the link, it took them to a webpage that said YOU’RE GROUNDED. They’ll be spending the weekend retaking our family’s cybersecurity training course.

Whiskey inventory: 12 bottles Do you think that’s enough? Maybe I need a few more just to be on the safe side

Are you ready? 👇Time to think the unthinkable. And plan ahead.

Explain it to me like I’m a racist black labrador next to an open fire in a country pub… Why is it the stupid Oxbridge grads that end up in politics?

I used to think it was like elite sports You know someone who’s really good at a sport, incredible compared to you but they are still miles away from being a pro as the top levels are so high Used to think Oxbridge smart was elite but these clowns are just county sports level

If that metaphor is still holding, also suggests the rot started a long time before I previously thought. I used to think Oxbridge and older than me was pre standards dropping but now I’m not so sure. Lots of study hard deadweights went through the sausage machine back then too
