Lorry

@Janeishly @engineeringstephen Oh both of these are true, they just happened at different places at different times.

The VaxStations were at Leeds University, and the Epidemiologists knew they weren't meant to run their jobs on them, but they were faster than the mini so they'd risk it sometimes. But the room safety switch was right next to the damned light switch - And you know, idiots kept accidentally setting fire to their keyboards so that didn't help.

I used to cycle back from my job at Leicester Royal Infirmary to my house a couple of miles away and I was usually not sober at the time. Now I wasn't completely mad, and I'd plotted a path back that was mostly over waste-land (lots then!) and little alley ways - So at 3am I never ever saw a driving car. But those parked ones, they just come out of nowhere you know and bang, you are off your bike, lying there in the nice flat and not moving ground and a nap would be good.

#DifferentTimes as Mark Kermode would say.

Ironically, one of the members of the Morning mailing list was killed on his bike in #Leicester, but he rode on the stupidly busy main road in the daytime (sober) which I would never even consider. Those drivers were nuts.

Veggies Catering Campaign

Vigil for the lives lost in the genocide against the Palestinian people

Here, Now. At Elbit (UAV Tactical Systems, #Leicester)

Many companies that support Israel need to be boycotted. We focus on Coca Cola, the only cola at #GlastonburyFestival.

Coca-Cola violates international law by operating on stolen Palestinian land. Stop Coca-Cola profiting from the occupation

The image is a modified Coca-Cola advertisement with the words "Taste of Apartheid" replacing the usual slogan: Text reads: "Coca-Cola violates international law by operating on stolen Palestinian land. Stop Coca-Cola profiting from the occupation The protest art, references Apartheid in South Africa During the apartheid era, some groups called for boycotts of companies operating in South Africa. This image may be a modern iteration of that sentiment. Boycott campaigns: Some activists today call for boycotts of Coca-Cola due to the company's operations in specific regions.

"Join the fight against big tech" is large bold text overlaid on a glitchy version of Mark Zuckerberg with black tape over his eyes. The background is a geometric pattern.

I'm sitting in the waiting room at Leicester Station - and it's so bl**dy noisy!

There's a TV clattering away, I think someone might have a phone on speaker, there's the usual repetitive, useless station announcements and the noise of the trains (I can forgive the last one!).

No, I don't normally carry my earplugs around with me. But I've turned my hearing aids off!

I can't help but wonder how some people cope with this - particularly if it's cold +/- wet outside and the relative peace of the platform isn't an option.

I'm only in here because I've got here early due to a combination of lucky bus changes.
