Many foreign embassies refuse to pay this charge as they consider it a tax, and may claim diplomatic immunity.

The one I was discussing last week has been irritating me for a while now. However, I hope that it is finally over. Although it is not enough of a problem to lose any sleep over, if it does not cease and desist, I will have to take whatever action is required to deal with it.

This is my favourite programme right now, loved each series. But I found myself sobbing at the death of little piglets and made me realise I'd never make it as a farmer!

Julian Assange, the founder of Wikileaks, has been granted permission by the High Court to appeal against his extradition to the US.

The decision allows Assange to challenge US assurances regarding his prospective trial and potential infringement on his freedom of speech.

•Assange's lawyers embraced in court following the ruling, asserting that the case against him is politically motivated.

The senior judges granted permission for a full appeal in the UK, considering that Assange has resisted extradition for over a decade since Wikileaks published confidential US documents in 2010 and 2011.

Shareholders of major UK water companies have withdrawn £85.2bn since privatisation, despite calls for increased investment.

Critics blame under-investment for sewage spills and water leaks.

Water companies plan to raise household bills by 33% over the next five years to fund improvements.

The University of Greenwich claims water companies have invested less than nothing and are exploiting customers.

The research examined the accounts of top water and sewage companies, showing a £5.5bn decline in shareholder investment after adjusting for inflation since 1989.

The Sir Galahad was bombed during the Falklands War while transporting troops to support the British assault on Stanley.

Recently, declassified documents revealed confusion and missed opportunities to move the ship to safety.

The plan was to disembark troops at Bluff Cove to reinforce British positions, but the ships anchored five miles away at Port Pleasant.

On 8 June 1982, the Sir Galahad, loaded with ammunition, fuel, and soldiers, was struck by Argentine bombs.

The immense sunspot cluster that caused the magnificent aurora borealis last weekend will likely return in two weeks, potentially generating more Northern Lights.

The Sun's heightened radiation continues, disrupting global high-frequency radio communications, and this hyperactive sunspot is a precursor to the Sun's approach to "solar maximum," a period of peak activity in its 11-year cycle.

No, today I’ll be having mine much closer to home. I’m off to get my COVID booster later this morning.

Sky News reported in 2022 that in the first year of the vaccine being used in England, there were around 20 million lives saved. Having booster jabs further protects the population from the world heading back into a pandemic state.

Of course, there are doubters, as there will be for anything, who reject the idea that something that saves so many lives should not be used because a minute number of recipients have had side effects. Every set of chemicals can potentially affect the human body, and it is terrible when it happens, but throughout our lives, we’ve been immunized against a host of illnesses, and by far the majority of us have had longer and better lives because of it.

Of course, you can’t convince everybody that it is wiser to be protected than to take a chance, which means that because I’m not going to travel to Kent for my jab, there is a little prick in Farnborough going spare!

Here's the dashcam video.

Heard it for the first time last night during the Eurovision song contest semi-final. We weren't competing, it was just to showcase the song.
It's called Dizzy by Olly Alexander. He is the gay lead singer of a group called Years and Years, but for the Eurovision he is a solo artist.
The song is ok so I can't say it's rubbish, but it is so bland. There is no upbeat section or key change to make the song memorable and have people humming the tune.
We are not going to win this year, probably not even top half.
Croatia's song was really good.

Jury selection starts on Monday.

NB the trial is expected to take 6 weeks - this might be a long running post.
