Oh gosh - just realised I am the ageing poorly parent in UK that my son in Berlin is trying to visit! 👵🏻👵🏻👵🏻

@pussinpjs Not from Swindon he won’t!

#deathinparadise Will he get to Leeds

@DaveCurlGolf “Boulevard!”

Suprised they didn’t leave poor Selwin at the £33m new bus stop! Might get a softer seat #deathinparadise

@Caz11red @deathinparadise I can tell you it’s not Swindon!

@deathinparadise Trying to work out the filming location for the railway station

Welcome to the UK's public transport system. #DeathInParadise

@JohnOBr69892816 @deathinparadise Yeah, and you’re certainly not going to get a train to Leeds from there!

@deathinparadise Swindon East? Where the 'footage' is that station? Been going to Swindon for the last 45 years. Never seen it.

I told you a million times. I am Egyptian, I know what happened to the Jews of Egypt. I know what it looks like when a Jewish community is systematically targeted, excluded, and demonized until they have no choice but to flee with their suitcases in hand. I told you, what is happening to Jewish communities across Europe and America today is a chilling echo of what happened in Egypt. And just as Western leaders stood by in the 1950s and watched the ethnic cleansing of Jews from the Arab world, they are standing by now, offering little more than silence. It is a profound, isolating despair to shout this warning and be met with the same global indifference. I have been warning of this since at least 2019. Everything that once happened is happening all over again, this time in the West. We are repeating one of history's darkest patterns, and my faith is crumbling because of it. One day, we will point to cities like London and New York and say, "There was once a thriving Jewish community here", just as we now speak of the lost Jewish world of Alexandria and Cairo. What a tragic and shameful failure.

@ThatEricAlper Simon

What did your parents almost name you?

@ScouseLakes Swindonian here. We watch everything with Diana Dors in it.

Hey @GWRHelp Why are you not doing anything for #Railway200?

@topcac You forgot thick as s***!

After having caught up with Corrie from yesterday I’m now permanently adding Theo to the list of completely worthless and utterly irredeemable men in soap at the current time. They are either misogynistic, sexual predators or walking red flags. Or all 3. #Corrie #Emmerdale

@SickOfEverythi6 @Eve_Barlow 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Yes. There is a silent majority out there who support you. We may not threaten violence and shout the loudest because we're dignified and decent. Unfortunately, you're seeing those who follow trends and attention seekers (celebrities are glorified attention seekers) because they want to be seen. You have so many who support you.

Is there a place for Jews in the lives of non-Jews any more? Asking for all of my friends.

@TracyAnnO @ClaudiaWinkle I did not know that. How wonderful! And mazeltov to you both.

One of the lovely things about receiving an MBE alongside @ClaudiaWinkle also getting an MBE ( congrats Claude) is that our Grandmas were sisters. Faye and Lilly both children of immigrants forging a life in the UK. Love that they would be looking at their grandaughters today on the Honours List. A testament to them ❤️

@RoyMukungunugwa Thank you for your service. 🫡🫡🫡

Today is the first day of my last full working week as a full-time soldier. Nearly 24yrs have passed and the feeling is indescribable. I am happy but equally as sad. The Career Management Officer said if this post gets 1M likes, I will sign a new Army contract. IMPOSSIBLE ☠️

@Longsidehoney @afneil My husband’s still S/E at 73. I’m wondering if when MTD comes in this number might drop off a bit/lot.

@afneil I saw an interesting article a couple of months ago about the number of retired people registered as self-employed. I don't recall where I saw it, but it went on to say that this group contributes more to HMRC than the 16 to 24 age group does, I am retired self employed

5.12%

FFS @GWRHelp!! Yet again, 10 carriages down to five on one of the first (and therefore busiest) super off-peak trains out of Paddington!!

@paspinall42 @HelloFreshUK Same here. I've cancelled my subscription until they go back to the insulated pouch. I opened my box and 'chilled' (not chilled!) ingredients everywhere.

What the heck is with the second cardboard box for the supposedly "chilled" items @HelloFreshUK ? if this is your solution for recyling purposes you have issues, its not even 1pm yet and the iceblocks are entirely liquid and barely cold, this just isnt sufficient insulation

Help @RachelRileyRR @WIZOuk I can't make it Wednesday!!

@DrHelenFry Days of Glory.

A friend who has never seen a World War 2 film before approaches you for a recommendation. Which film would you suggest?

@Wrightie7 However many times I watch it that always surprises me!

Just watching Fiddler On The Roof… and lo and behold Trigger’s in it lol.

In October @AuschwitzMuseum account lost 7,279 followers. We can commemorate the victims of Auschwitz and educate people on social media thanks to your overwhelming support. Every RT matters. Share our posts and amplify our voice. We remember together.

@MyExplodingPen Today: “Hold my beer!”

I will never forgive Wordle for ruining a 66 day streak with this bullshit. CORER??
