So, just to recap on the live Eritrean visa story:
As of 08:00 (GMT) this morning, three Eritrean 🇪🇷 top level professional riders - Merhawi Kudus of @EFprocycling , Amanuel Ghebreigzabhier of @LidlTrek and Natnael Berhane of @Beykoz_Bld - do not have UK visas to race the Men’s Elite Road Race @CyclingWorlds which takes place this Sunday.
We believe there is still hope and that the UK Gov will expedite any review of this situation and solve it.
The reaction on social media and the media has been heart-warming and we of course hope a resolution can be found ASAP. Time is now very short though as these riders need to prepare and rest ahead of this Sunday’s 270km race. They can’t just get off a plane and take part as Merhawi had to do in 2015 for the Tour de Yorkshire due to the same issue.
On Biniam, his team have now stated his injuries are more serious than they first reported last week, and this is why he won’t race. We have seen some reports saying he did have a visa as of last week which we hope are true of course.
For his three top level compatriots, the clock is ticking fast…

It's a good time to remember that the Chairman of the BBC is Richard Sharp, someone who's donated £400,000+ to the Conservatives and helped Boris Johnson with an £800,000 loan.
Let's remember that when they talk about BBC "impartiality".

Thank you to everyone who helped to bring this fantastic photo project to Edinburgh. I fell in love with it the minute I saw it. We are used to seeing professional photos from Ukraine but children have the ability to view things differently. Come have a glimpse into their world. – at Edinburgh, Scotland

A black-box stage play that's just the conversation between three submarine commanders, their seconds, and each other about what to do now that their letters of last resort are all different.
I really wanted to share a half remembered song from my childhood for #Scotstober today but I can find neither title nor full lyrics. What I can piece together goes:
...Butterdean Braes, Old Airhouse Wood,
Where oft at gloaming lovers met,
Whispering low the old, old tale (1/2)
