@bbcsport Your 'live' coverage of the gymnastics was not live. I had to follow elsewhere, you were 45minutes/two rotations behind the live event. No-one wants a late start and the fluffy bits in live event coverage, we just want to see the action, live, as it happens...

@BBCSport If it could actually be live that would be great, why the massive delay, the competition started 45mins ago and i've not seen one routine yet on your channel...

A little bit irritated that the BBC have delayed the start of their broadcast for the men's AA final until 13:00 UK time. The competition has started!!

Rest in peace, Patricia Routledge 🙏🏻 In memory of her, I encourage everyone to read these words of hers from February last year. Whether young or old, you're bound to get something out of it. ***** "I’ll be turning 95 this coming Monday. In my younger years, I was often filled with worry — worry that I wasn’t quite good enough, that no one would cast me again, that I wouldn’t live up to my mother’s hopes. But these days begin in peace, and end in gratitude. My life didn’t quite take shape until my forties. I had worked steadily — on provincial stages, in radio plays, in West End productions — but I often felt adrift, as though I was searching for a home within myself that I hadn’t quite found. At 50, I accepted a television role that many would later associate me with — Hyacinth Bucket, of Keeping Up Appearances. I thought it would be a small part in a little series. I never imagined that it would take me into people’s living rooms and hearts around the world. And truthfully, that role taught me to accept my own quirks. It healed something in me. At 60, I began learning Italian — not for work, but so I could sing opera in its native language. I also learned how to live alone without feeling lonely. I read poetry aloud each evening, not to perfect my diction, but to quiet my soul. At 70, I returned to the Shakespearean stage — something I once believed I had aged out of. But this time, I had nothing to prove. I stood on those boards with stillness, and audiences felt that. I was no longer performing. I was simply being. At 80, I took up watercolour painting. I painted flowers from my garden, old hats from my youth, and faces I remembered from the London Underground. Each painting was a quiet memory made visible. Now, at 95, I write letters by hand. I’m learning to bake rye bread. I still breathe deeply every morning. I still adore laughter — though I no longer try to make anyone laugh. I love the quiet more than ever. I’m writing this to tell you something simple: Growing older is not the closing act. It can be the most exquisite chapter — if you let yourself bloom again. Let these years ahead be your TREASURE YEARS. You don’t need to be famous. You don’t need to be flawless. You only need to show up — fully — for the life that is still yours. With love and gentleness, Patricia Routledge ***** Once more, rest in peace. 🤍

Hyrox presale tickets: I began at 7226 in line on my ipad, and 13954 on my laptop. My ipad got to 190 and then booted me out with a 'rate limit exceeded' page, my laptop at about 11am let me in and i got tickets. So basically never give up and have a few devices trying...!

Earlier this year I worked on a really cool media project to promote the @SamsungUK Galaxy S24Ultra. Sadly I didn't get a free phone😂 because right now my S22Ultra did a software update and is now not working. Not sure i could recommend a Galaxy Ultra to anyone at the moment...

@SamsungHelpUK My S22 Ultra did an update, it now drops wifi, and keeps freezing and turning itself off. It turned itself off about 30 times today. How do i fix this? My phone isn't old enough to die on me just yet...

My house's Miele dishwasher has I think died (circulation pump), its 18-21 yrs old, super heavy usage in hardwater area. Googling and a Miele dishwasher can last up to 20yrs, more than double that of other brands,some brands shockingly only last up to 6yrs. I need another Miele.

24hrs of travel, 18hrs in the air with @chinaeasternair, the food was so bad, I couldnt eat it, I'm starving... couldn't even find me a piece of fruit, the entertainment system was also poor. Not sure I'll be flying with them again... Emirates on outbound flight was way better.

Maybe I am the last person to know this but sharing incase not... When booking budget airline flights don't add cabin/hold bags until later in the booking screen process, I just saved £65 in baggage fees on a return flight by doing this.

Trying and failing to book flights to Palermo and back on the date and time I need for the handstand extravaganza. If I want a large cabin bag it is +£153.71 added to my return fare. Crazy!

Today we remember all those who lost their lives and those affected by the terrorist attack in London on 7/7 in 2005. Our thoughts remain with the families as we recall the bravery of police officers and emergency service colleagues who responded that day.

I was thinking the election turnout would be far greater than 52%, that is the thing that startles me the most about this election, along with number of seats in relation to overall vote percentage of votes. #GeneralElections2024
