Plenty around Stoke Newington this evening. And there was one on a Metropolitan line train earlier that seriously freaked a passenger out ('I thought I'd got a spider in my hair!' after appearing to have an epileptic seizure). Said flant landed on the door and got off at the next station (Barbican, if you're interested).

I download my files into chronologically named folders, then add to Lightroom. I tag each image with at least the camera name (even though I could use the metadata), usually a location and often some other detail to aid searching later. By adding to LR, I could choose to just delete the crap images just from LR, or from the folder as well, but generally I leave everything in LR. You could also tag/flag/score them and then use the filters to exclude them from the grid view?
In the last few years I've taken lots of travel pics and I've started using collections to group my favourites. I used to use ratings to do this, but now I just quickly scroll through and add the ones I like to a quick collection and then save that.

I bet there's a Franklin book... There's a great charcuterie book from the US that I have but it's either in a box here or at my folks' place in Spain so can't give you the title...
There is a Franklin book!
Michael Ruhlman and Brian Polcyn have done a couple of books called 'Charcuterie' and 'Salumi' - are these the ones you are thinking of? -

'Not seen diving like that for many years'
Gerrard only left Liverpool 3 seasons ago, not that long
Much more recent than than that. Just last weekend:
"Former Everton defender Phil Neville said: "It was a dive. It was 100% a dive. There's a bit of contact but he goes down trying to win the penalty."

Set up by Moet et Chandon almost 60 years ago in Argentina to make wines based around the Champagne wine making model, I'd guess - ie grape varieties and méthode champenoise.

Don't forget that modern Boeing models (777 and 787) are fully fly by wire as well - although Boeing and Airbus might have different ideas about how far they'll allow the pilots push the envelope.
As you said though, the flight control computers stop the pilots doing some stuff towards the edge of the envelope, but they don't move the elevator, ailerons or rudder by themselves if the aircraft is being flown normally.

If I were driving an A380 then I'm sure that the only landing that I could walk away from would be one I made would be in a simulator!
A lot of Cargospotter's videos involve crosswinds. Watch the start of this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gF9n7ShkOJ0
and look at the rudder deflections immediately before and after touchdown.In the video posted by @fussballclub, there is what looks like full left rudder before touchdown, and then full right rudder afterwards, leading to the oscillations that passengers at the back of the aircraft must have found very uncomfortable.
Not sure what the crosswind components were in the two videos, but the crab angles look similar

Another great save from Pickford...
