Woodpigeons hoovering up the seed I put out for the garden birds.

Blackbirds sloshing most of the contents of the bird bath over the side, and defecating in what's left of the water.

Today on GMB, One of their main stories is about Wayne Rooney's documentary on Amazon Prime, I'm sorry but with all that's going on in the world they class this as a "Main Story"? and are now having an in depth discussion about him, his Mrs! 🙄

An old favourite.

Utterly useless hand dryers in public toilets. Interestingly everywhere else on Malta had paper towels available. But not at the airport. It was one of those that you stick your hands under on the left for soap, then in the middle for water and move to the right for the dryer.

Think it was a good thirty years ago and more that Private Eye had a cartoon of a hand dryer with the instructions written on it:

1. Push button

2. Rub hands together gently under hot air

3. Wipe hands on trousers

Nat West (still majority owned by "us" btw) whacking up the bonus pool for their fat cat bosses by 44% (while their CEO ups her annual pay by £1M to £3.6M in 2021)

When the already parsimonious state pensions for the great unwashed have been capped at 3.1% - well below the current and predicted rate of interest inflation - by billionaire Sunak.

I don't know if I'm annoyed or aghast at the stupidity. "Underestimating the Threat"
