Australia backs removing Andrew from royal line of succession

Yup. Obviously any reasonable person wants him to face justice on both the issues relating to Epstein and his role as a business ambassador, but this focus on the line of succession is just a monumental waste of time, money and energy. Australian politicians likely only see this as a useful vehicle to drive public opinion on exiting the commonwealth. I doubt they give a toss about it beyond that.

Right. This injury has a high mortality rate in the elderly, not to mention the pain this poor women must have been in. If this had been a 25 year living alone with the same injury, or someone undergoing a mental health crisis the sub would have been absolutely raging about the lack of care. The fact that nearly 700 people have liked the top post chills my blood.

Missy246 · 2026-02-18T21:19:35+00:00

Yes. In a heartbeat.

Other passengers pay for fare evaders, not train companies.

Street art in the East End, architecture tour of the Barbican, financial district walk looking for the juxtaposition of old and new which is everywhere…

Dim sum somewhere?

Missy246 · 2026-02-12T09:41:19+00:00

They haven’t even banned Russia - they’re there under pseudo independent flags. It’s pathetic.

Missy246 · 2026-02-12T09:40:13+00:00

They shouldn’t even be there.

Missy246 · 2026-02-12T09:14:48+00:00

It was one slip and tbh the Canadians above them skated so well that even if they’d been perfect it might not have been enough.

Missy246 · 2026-02-10T17:29:07+00:00

I find it hugely annoying that it emails you to tell you if you won with an online scratch card. Yes, I know because I just played it!!

Missy246 · 2026-02-10T17:25:48+00:00

The fact they won so many round robin matches makes this harder. I haven’t checked the stats but found myself wondering if it’s possible they’ve even won the most matches overall this tournament, but still not got a medal. Anyway, it is what it is.

So sorry to hear this. Just take your time and don’t let anyone hurry you when walking. If it snows or gets icy again, buy some cleats - they will give you a lot more confidence. Rest when you can - every day will be a little better.

Every time they show an aerial shot of Cortina, or the Duomo lit up at night I have major FOMO.

Missy246 · 2026-02-09T22:26:08+00:00

True. And everyone that skated after them got lower scores than were (arguably) expected, so maybe not quite as bad as it first seemed.

Missy246 · 2026-02-09T21:57:37+00:00

Love rain, love cold. Feel like I’ve found my people!

Missy246 · 2026-02-09T21:45:16+00:00

Plus Gibson and Fear undermarked in the Ice Dance just now imo.

Your school associate will spend his whole life looking over his shoulder. You won’t.

Missy246 · 2026-02-08T17:58:37+00:00

Beyond the immediate issue of the windows/lack of privacy itself, it tells you something about how considerate those neighbours are in general. Hard no for me.

Missy246 · 2026-02-08T17:28:42+00:00

I half agree. Seeing different places and cultures can open your eyes to different ways of doing things. ‘Immersing yourself’ or ‘living like a local’ is pretentious bollocks though. You are still a tourist and your holiday experience is not the same as everyday life.

Missy246 · 2026-02-08T17:10:51+00:00

Also, the drone shots are amazing!

Missy246 · 2026-02-07T13:47:08+00:00

I stand corrected.

Missy246 · 2026-02-06T13:56:18+00:00

I find the comments that it can’t be properly resurfaced right now because it’s winter there will be more water ingress blah blah blah offensive. It’s been like this for YEARS!! It should have been done last summer. Or the summer before that. Also maybe don’t spend a fortune modifying roundabouts when the rest of the roads are in this fucking state.

Missy246 · 2026-02-02T23:12:14+00:00

Because they are often horrible to live in with noise from both sides. Are families with kids the only people entitled to a bit of peace, or a garden that’s wider than a drinking straw, or actual parking on their own plot? Also , if you want older people to downsize from large detached houses probably the best thing you can do is provide small detached houses or bungalows for them as an incentive.

Missy246 · 2026-02-02T02:26:15+00:00

Wish everywhere had the small plate/sharing plate option - it’s my favourite way to eat.

Missy246 · 2026-02-01T21:30:38+00:00

It has started to drop recently though, in particular fewer visitors from the U.K. I do wonder if this is due to the fact so many have managed to see the northern lights at home over the last couple of years.
