  It's not every day I hear a new (to me) song featuring bagpipes. I still remember when I first heard the solo from "You're the Voice" on the radio. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzGr282fgAM

  Finally watched my first #EurovisionSongContest. I waited far too long to do so, it was nothing short of a blast. #Eurovision #Eurovision2026 #EurovisionSongContest2026

  After learning that #VaticanCity is an #EBU member, I thought of this song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hW3azJZNdQM

  One of the many reasons I unapologetically refuse to use #Facebook or anything owned by that company, even "just for that one thing". https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/may/31/meta-legal-action-forces-facebook-whistleblower-to-stay-silent-at-hay-festival I've seen how cigarettes work - it's never just one. #Instagram #WhatsApp

  I knew I was as alone as Calvin Harris on this one. I've had a couple of goes at Parseword as well - it's pretty decent, though I'm often flummoxed by it due to my lack of cryptic crossword experience. https://www.theguardian.com/games/2026/mar/25/wordle-inventor-gets-ahead-of-the-game https://www.parseword.com/ #Parseword #CrypticCrossword #envy

  Reading manifestos for the coming #ScottishElection2026, and I got a little bit distracted by the #ScottishFamilyParty's #chatbot and had some fun with it. It emphasised the importance of Scottish culture so I asked it for its favourite Scottish band or artist (no answer). It brought up the importance of #ScottishGaelic, so I (with the help of #GoogleTranslate) asked it some slightly curveball questions, which it appeared to interpret correctly, though it answered in English.

  I am somewhat confused by these options. (and yes, I checked the information icons, the information behind them is identical as well) #eBay #OnlineShopping #postage

  EDIT: The survey has expired now - thank you to anyone who filled it in. Just filled in the BBC consultation form regarding its next charter. It's due to be done by today. I'm sorry for not sharing it sooner (estimated time to complete: 20-40 minutes). https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/britains-story-the-next-chapter-the-bbc-royal-charter-review-green-paper-and-public-consultation/britains-story-the-next-chapter-bbc-royal-charter-review-green-paper-and-public-consulta...
