So @Charlotte_Hunt_ is selling a fridge on Gumtree and immediately starts getting messages like this. The first one gets a bit of “no, we can discuss here” and they disappear. This one… gets a burner address to see how weird shit gets. What’s the angle? There’s always an angle…

Mel Giedroyc was a perfect fill-in for Graham Norton. Thought @hanwaddingham was superb too! Great production from the BBC #Eurovision23

We need 6,000 engineers per year to keep the lights on. The electricity companies were funded £12m to recruit 40 graduates a year, how many were recruited? No one, not even Ofgem knows! Read our latest blog: @energygovuk @ofgem @energynetworks @FT uknetworksservices.co.uk/pos…

Just remembered when I used a Danish keyboard for a week because I got sent it instead of a UK one by accident and just assumed it was a weird Apple thing because it was the first Mac I ever used 😄 What a twat.

Absolutely shameful.
Exclusive: Thought the arrest of @GrahamSmith_ and @RepublicStaff protesters at the King’s coronation was a bit over the top? Meet Alice Chambers, a quiet, 36-year-old Aussie who’s lived in London for about seven years. What happened to her on Saturday is a wild ride.🧵

If you ever think your job is pointless, just think of the probably thousands of people round the world who just make those annoying fabric strips that you have to peel off hotel beds before you can get in and then can't work out where to put

Can sympathise with this. Not had a drink for over 2 years, but wouldn't label myself a teetotaller. Stopped for no reason and many. Still get met with incredulity and persuasion rather than acceptance. Just let people be!
I'm a teetotaller. Nobody can accept this. So I say I'm a recovering alcoholic to shut people up instead of being asked if I've tried a certain drink to be sure if I do or don't like it. Fucking British drinking culture

For the next 4m 21s this station will be conducting a test... ...of the good time broadcasting system #EmergencyAlerts youtu.be/ep2S3kQ4Tgc

Picked up @BlackSabbath's Never Say Die for #recordstoreday2023. Must admit not listened to it that much but think it's unfairly panned TBH. Def atypical for Sabbath but feels like a bridge to Ozzy's solo stuff with keyboards and major keys

Hey @iD_Mobile_UK, 3x iD users in our house and none of us got the Emergency Alert test message. Why didn't we get it?

My mother in another area didn't either. Definitely a problem with the network it seems

Was disappointed I didn't get the alert. Not so much now
Hmmm. Not sure this would be helpful in an emergency.

Another easy #RecordStoreDay experience at @BanquetRecords. Great stock, not too crowded and saved myself from crazy queues yesterday. Only things I didn't get were because prices were silly, not because they weren't available
