If I get on my bike, I'll probably set pbs on Strava all over the place.

I read that as PBS (American Public Broadcasting). Why are they all over Strava. Woken up now.

Funny little troll aren't you.

The Reform UK leader was the guest of honour at the launch of Heartland UK/Europe, which is to be headed by a former leader of Ukip and climate denier.


The former prime minister Liz Truss was seen at the event in London, alongside current Tory MPs Andrew Griffith, who is the shadow trade minister, and Christopher Chope.

Which is not the inauguration.

Which is not the inauguration.

Pedantry coupled with nastiness is your thing, which I guess just makes you a nasty little troll.

Inaugurations can be informal or formal. In this case it was a launch party or informal inauguration. It may be followed by a formal one, but the fact remains little troll that the frog and lettuce were there at that start of Heartland introduction to the UK as the photographs show.

Inauguration can refer to a formal ceremony, such as one marking the start of a new term in office or the opening of a new wing in a museum, but it can be used more broadly to describe a less formal beginning. Your boss may make you responsible for the inauguration of a new system at work. There probably won’t be a ceremony for that inauguration — in this case, inauguration just indicates that a new practice is being introduced.

Perhaps you could make a useful contribution or otherwise go and count the pixels on your TV screen.

if it is the subject of the post it becomes the inauguration. Otherwise, just like the Presidential one, or, say, the opening of a museum it is just an inauguration.

Turns out you thought that 'inauguration' only applied to the demented apricot, and yet you want to continue. Didn't play out too well for you did it!

Played out fine, thanks. Seems to have annoyed a humourless pedant into spewing abuse over a simple joke.

I must have told you a million times not to exaggerate. You were being a plank and got told so. That is all.

Here's another picture of the new Metro.

Something I noticed today is a neat ramp which slides out from under the door to aid wheelchair users.

A triumph for accessible and environmentally friendly transport!

One could almost say they are normal for Norfolk.

These are the first new Metro carriages in 44 years.
