@lufthansa you cancel my flight, give me a date that doesn't work, give me robots to speak to and all your phone numbers are fake. Is this a service?

@Thomashornall Similar to Australia: i found the "why not mate" attitude amazing. Coming back very different

2) Belief In Possibility Discuss big plans in America: “Why not!?” In the UK: “Why bother?” One culture expands, the other stifles.

I’m British. I recently spent 10 days in the USA for business. And discovered the ocean between us isn't water. It's mindset. 7 uncomfortable truths about US v UK culture:

Woke up to this view this morning. My morning clinic ahead came to mind. Those who know, know @ophthalminute #ophthalmologytwitter
