Media: Ei uutisoi, että Sebastian Tynkkynen kirjoitti eilen Shitterissä, että Yle on poliittinen vihollinen.

Sen sijaan: Media (Hesari) julkaisee tänään pitkän artikkelin Tynen "somesodasta" - taistelusta EU:n digisääntelyä vastaan.

En jaa, koska miksi jakaa psk:a. Plus on maksumuurin takana.

Another one from Sunday's walk along the Tyne. The tide was out and it's looking rather muddy over towards Dunston's coal staithes. #Tyne #Newcastle #GoPro #Photography

Night Tyne

C-160 Transall, Luftwaffe. Seen here at RIAT, the Transall is a highly capable transport aircraft powered by two Rolls-Royce Tyne turboprops. I came across these in Ethiopia in 1983, when they were doing great work during the famine. #C160 #Transall #Luftwaffe #RIAT #Ethiopia #avgeek #famine #RollsRoyce #Tyne #turboprop #aircraft #avgeek #airshow #airdisplay #photography #aviation

#PetteriOrpo: Sanonut eilen, ettei #hallitus tule puuttumaan #Yle n _sisältöihin_.

#SebastianTynkkynen: Suuttunut tästä. Siis siitä, ettei Ylen sisällöllistä ja toimituksellista päätäntävaltaa siirretä #valtioneuvosto on.

HuhHuh!

Foggy night on Newcastle's Quayside. I took this in December 2006, and haven't browsed through these old photos for ages. I wasn't too bad!! #Photography #Fog #Tyne

Late Winter sunshine warming up the sand dunes a little at South Shields in North East England.
Little more than a week left before the arrival of 'meteorological Spring', as they call it (although Spring proper in the Northern Hemisphere doesn't arrive until 20 March.

'Conversation Piece' – 22 bronze figures by Spanish artist/sculptor Juan Muñoz, on the seafront at South Shields, Tyne & Wear. Known locally as the 'Weebles', each figure is around 1.5 metres tall and weighs a ¼ ton.
I reckon, that when no one's looking, these slightly creepy figures start rocking and turning their heads!
