#medway #kent Took a bit of a ramble off route while out cycling on Sunday just gone.
A few converted barges / houseboats moored up at Twinney Wharf close to Lower Halstow.
Tightly cropped in camera (phone); I couldn't get much closer and there was a lot of clutter in the foreground.
For #TravelTuesday a jump back to 2014 and a long weekend spent in Kent. This is Deal Castle, one of Henry VIII's Device Forts, a series of fortifications built around the coast to protect England from the threat of European Catholic forces after his breaking from the church in 1533 so he could marry, divorce, and behead with impunity.

I'd not want to go without water utilities so don't complain (too much) about rising bills but all the same -- what the hell -- performance management!
"...a continuous, industrial-scale loss of treated water — enough in 2024/25 (for just these three companies) to equal:
51,186 Olympic swimming pools a year
~4.13 Bewl Waters a year
A 2,559 km “pool chain” — roughly London to Istanbul, made of water that never reached a tap
In a region where hosepipe bans, drought warnings, and emergency supply events are now familiar characters in the local news, it’s hard to escape the central question:
If water is life, why does the system tolerate losing it at this scale — year after year — and calling it “performance management”?
