Fake ‘no parking’ curbs painted in SF causing confusion over CA’s new Daylighting law SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) — Residents in San Francisco’s Richmond District are frustrated and confused after someone painted curbs red along several streets. And the city says it wasn’t them. The fake red zones are also confusing residents because of the state’s new daylighting law. “It’s extremely inappropriate and I don’t think it’s acceptable to do such things. I hope it’s illegal,” said Raeia Zhassuzakova.

We're looking for people with great 'I missed a really important call!' stories for the radio this lunchtime. The Heathrow boss missed the fact that his airport was shut down due to a fire because his phone was on silent. DM me if you've got one!

I felt a bit emotional taking off my hiking boots for the last time today. They’ve fallen to bits having lasted me TWENTY FOUR years! (Can anyone beat that?!). We’ve had so many adventures together. Here’s the earliest and most recent pictures I can find of me wearing them. https://t.co/gt6A7ZWTt7
