A London alleycat race entrant wrote how he is a “perspiring mass of
arrogance hurtling towards you, I can do whatever I want… the rules of
the road are meaningless to me – I stop for nothing… also because I
have no brakes… just one single gear that is virtually impossible to
slow. Move”.https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/09/30/lethal-cycles-illegal-street-races-marketed-in-uk/

Dahlia lovers - gardening express have a deal on 50 tubers for £4.99.
put them away somewhere dry and plant them out next year.https://www.gardeningexpress.co.uk/garden-plants/special-deals/mse-dahlias
A year later and I'm getting a couple of photos every day from family who planted them. Amazing zingy pink squiggly ones, bright orange pom poms. 10 pence each. Total bargain. Poncy garden centers knock them out for a tenner.

Bindweed is also in the same family as ololiuhqui, which was used by
ancient Aztecs as an hallucinogenic drug, and Morning Glory, which is
also reputed to have psychedelic properties. But if you eat lots of
our normal hedge bindweed in the hopes of getting a mind-altering
experience you are more likely to get a trip to the loo than any sort
of psychedelic head trip!http://www.badwitch.co.uk/2008/07/bindweed-beauty-or-beast.html

K2: Climbers deny walking by dying guide in bid to break record

I really enjoyed watching an old cop movie with an unlikely cast, an overweight Stallone is a New Jersey cop patronised & exploited by corrupt NYPD officers. Copland. Outstanding acting, even from Charlie Sheen. About a dozen Sopranos cast member in it.
