    Musk and power in the UK

    Musk is bidding to provide/sell electricity in the UK. Anyone with half a mind who has observed his politics and his manipulation of Ukraine through Starlinl should shy clear of this. Ofgem are taking comments/objections for only a few more days. You might want to make your feelings clear on his untenability (for being a human being as well)

    Afternoon run

    Having an errand to run in Gala, we took the opportunity of passing Selkirk to run the Three Brethren loop.

    Great temperature with a cooling breeze. Our last run here was in the winter of last year and there was quite a contrast (the snow was not there today). 9.5k with 408m of ascent, mainly uphill on the way out and downhill on the way bak.

    The legitimisation of killing reporters in Gaza

    The Israeli military has operated a special unit called the “Legitimization Cell,” tasked with gathering intelligence from Gaza that can bolster Israel’s image in the international media, according to three intelligence sources who spoke to +972 Magazine and Local Call and confirmed the unit’s existence.

    +972 is a nonprofit magazine run by #Palestinian and #Israeli #journalists.

    Israel’s military blamed the strike on a “malfunction” that caused a bomb targeting a militant to fall short and hit the children, and said it was examining the incident.

    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jul/19/killing-of-young-siblings-at-gaza-water-point-shows-seeking-lifes-essentials-now-a-deadly-peril

    The IDF have three modes according to them (and most of the bbc reporting)
    1. Precise attack - wonder of technology
    2. precise attack, shame we killed the rest of the neighbourhood (not)
    3. They were kids and future opponents of a greater Israel. Fuck them.

    114 years and he finished his last marathon in 2011 after taking up running at 89! So there is hope for everyone.

    But I have to commend the name of his running group - ‘Sikhs in the City’

    The scammers are getting in quickly

    I received this today. Now I have been listed as a carer for my partner (although I did not get any benefits while in the role, not needing that sort of support), so this might have been genuine - the url and the deadlines (even by DWP standards) were a bit of a giveaway and I suspect this was a random chancer text message.

    Morning run

    A combination of roads and tracks up through the Mintos (makes two little hillocks sound grand doesn't it 🤣). After a year of relatively gentle running (not enough time) we are just getting back to doing a reasonable distance per day, even if split over 3 sessions. The dug still waits for me with a slightly pained look on his face. 13k, missed the showers and a very comfortable temerature.

    Recipe
    One pot mac and cheese

    I have been meaning to post it but the Greggs mention reminded me. I don't know about the Greggs Mac and Cheese as I never go there but I found about about it from an article in New Scientist of all places and was intrigued. It is now my go to recipe, even with a bit of toasting on the final product. No roux to make. Variants are easy as well.

    @fkamiah17 @CloudyMrs @ForfarFairLady Wetsuits maybe, depending on the time of year, but you will find a lot of fine swimming both on the coats and in the lochs further inland. The advantage of no wetsuit is that you can walk in further without too much baggage for your swim. Having said that an SUP is a fine toy for the waters.
