adamgreenfield, #London folks! Please set aside July 13th on your calendar: I’ll be giving a Lifehouse talk at the Design Museum, with drinks afterward. It’d be wonderful to see you there. Details to follow.
Lazarou, Sounds like one of those promotions they use to silence people.

Lazarou, Imagine getting Wes Streeting to talk us round...

Lazarou, A disingenuous man tries to tell us that Diane Abbott is both expelled and a part of the Labour Party, in some Schrodinger's state of confusion.
Going to be grand with this guy running the country, isn't it? /s
straphanger,
Lazarou, Labour doesn't know what to do, they hate Diane Abbott but losing another seat to an independent in London would look bad. It won't effect their chances of Government but these are vain, public-school boys and they have to WIN (especially against a Black Lady...)
miffyhelen, I've got an afternoon in London tomorrow and no idea how to spend my time.
My original plan was to go to the Natural History Museum but then I remembered it's half-term, so no thank you.
Any wonderful ideas?

miffyhelen, @Troggie That place looks so cool! I didn't even know it existed. But now it's added to a mental list.
DJDarren, @miffyhelen Yes, +1 for the Musical Museum. A man in tight leathers showed off his big organ to us and we were all entertained.

@cstross used this as a plot feature a few books back, IIRC.

girlonthenet, Don't forget that tomorrow from 10:00-15:00, a bunch of roads around central #London are all closed off to cars, so if you want to go for a lovely ride along the Thames and past St Paul's and all that, it's a great day to do it: https://www.ridelondon.co.uk/our-rides/ridelondon-freecycle
fehrtrade, @girlonthenet have a fantastic ride!!
girlonthenet, @fehrtrade thank you! I am both nervous and excited! I haven't had time to do any practice rides because of All The Life Things so... fingers crossed I can make it to the end =)
