#NEPAL: This is incredible. 1,643 children survived because one headmaster acted fast when disaster was already on the way.
He received a warning that a village upstream had been swept away by the river. He immediately rang the school bell and moved the children and teachers to higher ground.
School buses were on the way to school, He called the bus drivers and told them: "Don't come here. Go back."
One school bus was already on its way. The headmaster saw it approaching the bridge and told the driver to turn back. The bus reached safety just before the bridge collapsed.
Then the flood hit the school. The entire three-storey school was washed away. It completely vanished. Not even a trace was left behind.
But all 1,643 children survived.
47 year old Rajendra Dadabi a teacher who became a hero when it mattered most. One man's quick thinking saved 1,643 lives.

Please help me keep my TD5 Defender on the road but this will be relevant to a lot of older cars!! ‼️IMPORTANT‼️ *Please Share.*
So the government is going to try and effectively remove old vehicles from the road.
They've created a sneaky consultation on this huge change with an end date of only the 6th of September.
They want to have a yearly emissions check on every car and motorcycle on the road AS WELL as your mot.
If you pass the mot but then go to your emissions check, if the vehicle doesn't emit exactly the same emissions as when it was built the car will be banned from any use on the road even if it passed its mot emissions.
‼️ This will effectively destroy cars for those of us who love older cars, as well as those who simply can’t afford a newer car. Also car tuning and modifications will be forced to stop you been able to drive your car.‼️
This is targeting all vehicle, cars, motorbikes, trikes, kit cars etc.
So far they are just targeting cars after 2001 but they want to use it on every vehicle on the road targeting mot & tax exempt (historic) vehicles.
They've purposely not given this consultation much time, so please go to the bottom of this page, click this link: smartsurvey.co.uk/s/x-QHYJB7… and click *DISAGREE* and tell them you do not want any of this from the government and share the consultation for others to do the same.
Only way to stop this would be to get the results of this consultation to be a resounding NO (DISAGREE)!

The only thing that's more impressive is the immense respect each of them has for, and receives from, the other five. #ThePiano

Recorded a couple of days ago, sharing now because although there has finally been a bit of the wet stuff, the plants & peat soils of the #NewForest are still tinder dry & will remain that way for sometime (& some rain) to come 🔥

‼️ UPDATE on repairs to the A31 ‼️
From National Highways:
Resurfacing of the carriageway has been completed, new safety barriers installed, and we’re making good progress replacing the boundary fencing.
These measures are essential for safety reasons to deter animals from entering the road.
With the fire raging for over a week, we have found a lot more damage since our initial assessments and the repairs required are now more substantial.
Nearly 1,500 metres of fencing needs replacing before the road can safely reopen.
As a result, we now expect work will continue into the weekend.
We appreciate the inconvenience this will cause. The conditions are challenging, and we are working with the fire service, Forestry England and others as we co-ordinate efforts.
As part of our work on site, temporary protection has been put around parapets which were damaged by the fire and will remain there until we get the bespoke parts needed. This means we expect the road will reopen with a reduced speed limit. Permanent repairs will be carried out at a later date.

Two European countries have reported new all-time temperature records today. 🥵🥵 In Austria, a temperature of 41.2°C was measured east of Vienna. In Slovakia, the new national record stands at 41.4°C. Temperatures above 40°C are exceptionally rare and represent truly extreme heat in both countries. 🧐

¿Captamos el impacto? Los restos de un cohete Falcon 9 se estrellaron con la Luna este miércoles 5 de agosto. Circulan videos falsos hechos con IA, pero lo cierto es que nadie registró contundentemente el impacto en vivo.
En nuestra transmisión observamos un pequeño destello.

Large wildfires are raging around the city of Bordeaux. 🔥🔥 The situation is out of control, and more than 200,000 people have already been evacuated. ⚠️ Conditions continue to deteriorate. Smoke and dust from the fires are spreading across much of southern France and reaching the Mediterranean (see the PM10 concentrations). In lower concentrations, the smoke is also being transported across Central Europe as far as Poland. 🧐 This is evident in the hazy sky and can also be seen on the satellite imagery: ventusky.com/satellite-map#p…
