Good spot! (Perhaps we need a “not in keeping” thread now too?  “This bike shelter / cycle lane / mini park is not in keeping with our beautiful Victorian car-lined roads”, said Mrs. Tesla at number 2985…)

If you block 5G does that keep them from trapping you in 15 minute cities? Those are clearly a plot by the rich to oppress the poor by making their house prices increase because the neighbourhood has less traffic … er …

Essentially banning the majority of all cars I’d have thought, the average car weight thesedays is already 1600kg, the average SUV starts at over 2000kg. Evs are up around 2400kg.

While on a walk through Eaton Park earlier this week, John Fielding was confused to find a weight restriction had been placed on one of the car parks by the city council. 

A sign put up at the site closest to Colman Road prohibited any vehicles over 1,524kg (1.5 tonnes) – essentially banning the majority of electric cars.

But, apparently, Scooby Doo was an atheist. They’d be doing a lot more unmasking if they went to Vatican City

I just realized that Scooby Doo is an analogy for atheism

Script for Scooby Doo episode 

Fred: now let’s see who’s been terrorising the Vatican City (removes rubber Pope mask)

All: Archbishop Welby!

Welby: Curses! And I’d have gotten away with it too if it wasn’t for you pesky meddling kids 

Fred : Officer, here’s your man 

Pope : Now I can be myself again!

Thelma : you sure can, Your holiness 

Shaggy : but what I don’t understand is how he did it 

Fred : (flashback cutaway) when the real pope was preparing the communion wine, Welby switched the chalices and gave the Pope a sleeping draught. Then all he has to do was say mass and everyone was fooled. 

Shaggy : but Scooby smelt something was off 

Scooby: yeah yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

Fred : and that made the Swiss Guards suspicious, but we needed proof…

Thelma : which I got when I overheard Welby saying that opinions were divided about transubstantiation

Wilma : for a little while there, the Pope wasn’t Catholic – your holiness it’s great to have you back

Pope: it’s great to be back, and I owe it all to you – and Scooby Doo

Everyone : dissolves into laughter as Welby is led away by the officer
