FlightRadar (or similar) query from 21 May?

Good morningI am trying to find if a flight departed LHR to Reykjavik on 21 May (9.25pm). Flight FI455  
I know there are some people on here that enjoy tracking flights — if one of you is able to check the details of the above for me I would really appreciate it. 
I have tried to find the info myself, but it appears I need to be a subscriber. Is anyone already a subscriber and able to check for me?Thank you!

Itchy Boots

Now, if you're not sure who Itchy Boots is. Itchy Boots is a female from Holland who does YouTube on her various motorbikes. She travels around the world and is about halfway through season 8. Yep, season 8 because she is very big on social media. She has just done 6 months in the Middle East and has halted halfway through season 8 to do book signings in the UK. Believe it or not, she has never been to the UK except for 3 months in Bristol many moons ago when studying. Itchy Boots has just uploaded her first video on arrival in London. Her videos around the world are worth watching Il post the London video below.

Turntable stylus/cartridge change

Does anyone know where I can get the cartridge changed on a Rega Planar 1? I already took it to Richer Sounds but they said they didn’t have experience with this model. I don’t want to do it myself so looking for someone else who can help!

M & S closes this Friday

Reading through the various posts on the front page it dawned on me that M & S will close on Friday, just 4 days to go.  I must walk up the High Road to check that this information is correct.  Leaving the scene for 6 months will test why I use this store as much as I do.  It will be interesting to see if Waitrose and Sainsbury up their game to compete.

Chiswick Wildfires

If we have a long hot summer without much rain, could we see wildfires in our famously green and rather leafy suburb? Happened to Wennington in 2022 so not so far fetched!https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-66148110

John Dale's suspension and Meta

A few days ago I was reading in Private Eye about how the looser moderation policy at Meta has resulted in a dramatic increase in anti-semitic comments and a corresponding increase in attacks culminating in the murder of the young couple who worked at the Israeli embassy in Washington.I am not accusing Meta of being anti-semitic as I'm sure their new regime has resulted in a rise in hate speech against a wide range of communities.The banning of John Dale's site could therefore be some sort of target driven operation which means that they still have to suspend some accounts to give the appearance of doing something but without a human actually looking at what they are blocking.His page is the only thing I look at on Facebook these days but I am familiar enough with the platform to know it was exceptionally well run compared to man other groups which are totally lawless. My only criticism of him would be why is he effectively giving his time and effort for free to such a terrible company.

And so the season of madness starts again this weekend

Pub in the Park.  And so the usual noise above the lawful decibel limits - calls to a noise helpline that get cut off - soothing noises from councillors and our local Mps - but no action.What's good to hear is that they can't even sell the tickets - I've been offered a ticket on my seatfiller site for free and a £6.50 admin fee.  What a farce!  Jolly boys!
