'London’s electric scooter trials will kick off on June 7th'
https://www.theverge.com/2021/5/17/22440320/london-electric-scooter-rental-trial-dott-lime-tier
Three scooter companies have been selected to offer rentals for up to 12 months as part of the pilot program: Dott, Lime, and Tier. Privately owned electric scooters will continue to be illegal to ride on streets.
The selected companies will initially offer scooters to rent across six boroughs and local authorities in London: Ealing, Hammersmith and Fulham, Kensington and Chelsea, Richmond upon Thames, the City of London, and Canary Wharf. While rentals will not be available in Tower Hamlets, Londoners will be able to ride their rented scooters through the borough. Lambeth and Southwark boroughs are also seeking to participate in the trial.

Jet Set Radio is great. Jet Set Radio Future is even better in my eyes. There was a remastered port of Jet Set Radio in 2012 for most platforms that were around then. So it’s available on PC and Mac as well as 360 and PS3 as well as some others I think. The 360 version is backwards compatible on Xbox One so likely on Series S/X as well. Jet Set Radio Future was backwards compatible on 360 as well so I imagine it will work on all the consoles too, but the frame rate tanks in the later levels when there’s big enemy battles or big areas.

Reminds me of when I saw Lightning Bolt a couple of years ago Brian Chippendale had a golf glove on his left hand that between songs he would take off to re tape his blisters https://www.instagram.com/p/B4yJOCKp5RM/

I've yet to even give batting a proper go. Been pretty much only pitching on RTTS so far. I'm aiming for a no hitter or even better a perfect game and been close but haven't made it yet. Had a few shutouts and had a perfect up to inning 8 where a line drive got one batter on base which I was devastated by.

Could have sworn I just heard Ogmios on a 'Think!' road safety advert before a Youtube video just now but didn't react quick enough to be able to follow it through anywhere. Said something along the lines of 'We've got to watch out for our scooter riding brothers' or similar. Was I just hallucinating or can someone confirm they've seen it too? Could be 'Think!' immitating Ogmios' style as well maybe.

I thought they had removed the ability to stop the beep when I got my new Garmin last year and dreaded the idea of having to hear the beep everytime there was a direction update. I ride without autopause so was happy I at least didn't need to worry at traffic lights. Was very happy when I found the option eventually.

One of the things I miss the most from the North East is the greasy chewy massive takeaway pizza. Never really found anywhere I've lived in London to make a good comparison. London Pizza (margherita with chips on), kebab calzones, parmo pizzas (parmos in general) and the Ilhan's Special which was available from two independent places on Chillingham Road in Newcastle, only came stuffed crust, with chicken tikka and pepperoni then sesame seeds stuck to the crust. All absolute masterpieces of Italian cuisine. The garlic sauce in London is also hugely dissapointing.

Have got quite into MLB: The Show now. Have only been playing RTTS so far as a pitcher so it's pretty mindnumbing and repetative stuff but the Pinpoint Pitch mode is extremely satisfying once I got the hang of it. I've found it a good game to play a few matches on, then switch to something else to play for a bit.

Is there any recomendation for window/door suppliers and fitters around south east, specifically New Cross? Just your standard UPVC windows and composite doors we'd be looking for.
