Angry Camborne residents fight Cornwall Council scheme which they fear will leave them with nowhere to park
Presumably this will have a happy ending, with some provision made for those who really need it – if school run drivers will have the good grace to respect this.

Thank-you all contributors. I mean it’s tough being a driver, the whole system is stacked against you, can’t do this, mustn’t do that can’t park there and the expense: don’t even. Mass car ownership and driving in the UK is in great shape and not remotely a policy with no future or one that stands to deprive a lot of people of theirs.
Keep ‘ em coming.

Speeding Audi races across ‘busy’ Porth Beach
In the video, the black Audi appears to be driving at some speed along the sand as stunned beachgoers watch on. It’s unclear at this time what the driver’s motives were.

This nonsense has made it into several newspapers, but I’m sticking with the local rag Cornwall News covering that well known West Country town Holme-next-the-Sea.
Boomer receives council letter. I felt the story was interesting because I thought motors were part of who we are now, no sense complaining, fella’s got to do his job etc. He doesn’t exactly say “I’m prepared to go to court over this”, but he sounds pretty dug-in.

“I mean, these men died for us – frequently.” ( replying to HoldingOn)
context – I’m not really old enough to have appreciated the religious controversy around the release of Monty Python’s Life of Brian. Not the Nine O’Clock News did a sketch turning it on it’s head, in which Python fans are outraged by the General Synod’s new picture “The Life of Christ.”
For example, “the lead character, this Jesus Christ, is clearly a lampoon of the comic messiah himself, Our Lord John Cleese – even the initials, JC, are exactly the same”
The interviewer asks Life of Christ’s director if he had anticipated all the controversy and he smugly opens with this banger – “well, I certainly didn’t expect the Spanish Inquisition”
Serious question – don’t
Serious question – don’t laugh – how do I access this show, and others mentioned here?
What layer of Hell is reserved for people who’ve never heard of Firefly?I’m now 100% out of love with what terrestrial TV currently has to offer. We subscribed to Britbox in the lockdown, but I haven’t so far taken the plunge on anything else. Whenever I browse Netflix in a holiday cottage, I don’t see any improvement over Freeview.
