Bananas!

Sixteen containers washed up on West Sussex beaches: eight containers of bananas, two of avocados, one of plantains and five empty. The Coastguard said you have to report anything you find or you’re breaking the law, but then said it doesn’t apply to perishables.
Seems to me they could have given plainer advice than that. Can we pinch bananas or not? Eh, never mind…too far to drive for a free banana.
As you might imagine, the English Channel is a busy, busy waterway. This is a fun tracker for ship watching – like FlightRadar24, but for boats. One of the fish and chip shops we go to has this playing on a big monitor in the main room and I find it kind of hypnotic. Doesn’t like my VPN, though.
