Hey @scottish_water, what’s going on at Belhaven? Bear in mind there’s a swell tomorrow that’ll probably attract hundreds on the water. No signs up or any CSO overflow alerts, but loads up the coast in ‘maintenance’ on the @sascampaigns app. @CarveMag @wavelengthmag

The sun lined up perfectly with a contrail today and beamed down onto Berwick Law. Or a demonic breed of dragons were being summoned from the depths of hell. Kinda cool but not weather but still interesting amirite @WindyWilson88 @SeanBattyTV
Paolo Nutini singing to an equally as loud Scottish crowd under darkening West coast skies is the greatest amalgamation of Scottish culture there is. Wonder.

This is sad news. Do check his work out if you haven’t, he skated effortlessly across a bunch of genres, all of which made your ears tell your brain to seek out joy and calm. And a bottle of beer. RIP KJP.
I thought Stubhub was supposed to eliminate tout prices for resale? £1200 for @thesmiletheband at Roundhouse. Free Vespa with mirrors and shit for that, I'm assuming.
Got a 🚁. Surfing pals, do tell. Is it annoying being buzzed by them when you’re just trying to have a nice surf? Obvs tell anyone if I’ve snapped them.

Speared 185mph head winds to the Land of Fire and Ice to present my research into Acoustics in mass timber construction at the Harpa with @PliteqInc. But there’s a 930mb low tickling the west with fronds of violence and snow. It is EXCITING. Known locally as weather.

It’s looming and gaps are starting to whistle. ETA +4hrs. Second time they’ve implemented ‘red’ apparently. The gosh darn coolest country on earth.
Time Consuming. @Procreate. Fuuuucking hell it’s been ages since I drew anything.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but the new Limp Bizkit is a solid 10/10.
10/10.
Got my days wrong and ended up alone in a room with my boss and the President of Ireland while I was on ketamine. xitter.cf/b3ta/status/9920006879…

Worthwhile having a read and getting stuck in. Particularly if you are averse to mingling in shit like a piece of pasta in a hellscape minestrone soup. Act now, g’wan.
The campaign to #EndSewagePollution is far from over. It's time to swamp MPs with our demands to reshape the #EnvironmentBill and deliver for the ocean. Read the blog and take action 👇✊🌊sas.org.uk/news/environment-…
This description of Salt Bae is the greatest thing I’ve ever read from @jayrayner1. Absolutely stellar.

Absolute legend. Congrats @EllieRobinsonGB, and what an inspiration. 🎉
🗣 “This is a story of triumph, this is NOT a story of defeat!” If you watch one thing today, make sure it’s this @EllieRobinsonGB interview. #Tokyo2020
Everyone else just stood watching outside bombies, yeah? #mess
Last time there was a forecast like this, some proper rare, if not non existent waves popped up in these parts. This was 10ft @ 14s with similar winds. ‘Solutely frothing for Tuesday.
