    just out of curiosity, i checked strava for a popular segment - the climb from howth village to the summit pub. i'm 615th out of nearly 9k cyclists who have had a go; but my time would have me in 6th (out of 800) if i was a woman. interesting to note that men to women ratio on its own - more...

    I'm sure it would be nice to also get some of the money the streaming services are charging for access to that enjoyment?

    i suspect your memory of 1971 just doesn't quite gel with what 1971 actually felt like to live at the time.

    General Election 2025

    He has his dad for that. Parachuted as a complete nobody into a safe seat. Caused at least one long term party member (who has probably good reason to think they had the next shot) to leave the party.

    The Thumped Motoring Forum

    minor bit of confusion there; there was a letter for me for an unpaid parking fine, from louth county council. i can't tell you the last time i parked anywhere in louth. so i rang - to say 'i haven't been in Ardee in years'. quickly sorted; they had a photo and had noted 12D12345 down, when the...

    the court staff are unhappy about that - they're separate from the judiciary, and are doing a justifiable 'don't pin this on us'; though i can understand the pride organisers getting cold feet over it.

    sorry, i got that wrong. it was not four points and three points, respectively. it was a four year and a three year ban, respectively. found the article about the lad on the e-scooter (paywalled). the other is harder to find, weirdly - it was the same journalist who reported on it...

    he grabbed her by the hair and puched her; i've read that this was a sign that he knew how to maximise the effectiveness of a punch, as it limits the ability of the head to whip back, mitigating some of the force of the blow. i.e. it's a way to ensure you deliver as much energy from your fist as...
