It's Bat Appreciation Month!

Share a pic you took
Do you have any interesting pictures that you've taken? They can be pics of anything. I picked up these two bottles of cherry Pepsi with retro labels from the clearance shelf at just 93p each at Tesco.

Never really considered them before
Has anyone seen this video? I've always kind of discounted them as feels like no one else but labour/conservative will ever get in but really liked listening to this I kind of assumed their policies are only focussed on being green so I found it quite surprising https://youtu.be/qxt4HCjd7VA?si=HYLPnCkZ5kYy1zeY
