@HoraceSpellman9 ‘Free on-site parking’ as if it’s a significant benefit. 🙄

The fuck salary range is this

3 year old video from the national Business Crime Centre on how to deal with disruptive & anti-social behaviour as a retailer. What do you think about the advice in this video?

@BoothNickster @denemetu

Shamelss behavior by @British_Airways on BA720! Ground staff forced me to check in my cabin bag containing fragile electronics, lying that the flight was "full." Just boarded and the cabin is half EMPTY! Now I’ll miss my tight connection at Istanbul Airport. Unacceptable! 😡✈️

@KnackeredStew People make mistakes and it’s sensible to read the road and anticipate them. There’s no comfort in being the most righteous corpse in the morgue. The driver’s turn, whether right or wrong, was very predictable.

Yes both played by the rules of the road but there are plenty that don’t. And plenty that might not have been paying attention The real issue here is why do cyclists take the risk of becoming a pancake to save a few seconds?

@E7Drew @Telegraph Heatwaves kill people in their homes too, I’m not arguing against the impact of heat. But 48% of UK workers are employed by small businesses who can’t afford to pay a workforce that isn’t working.

@JimQbert @Telegraph Heat exhaustion kills. Alternative duties may be available.

🥵 Labour is considering making it illegal to work when it is too hot as part of the drive for net zero Read more about what that could entail ↓ telegraph.co.uk/politics/2026/…

This has been going on for years. This article is dated 2024 and you can find other articles dating back to at least 2017 bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Customer service impersonation scams are rife, and if you report them, @X responds that “no policy violation” was detected 🙄

Yes, I would.

@CleansedTweets A simple bullet point list of talking points can help guide you along, prevent you rambling or missing anything important. I've used the same thing in live interviews, a few off-camera bullet points as a safety net (see hnis.co.uk/media)

@JimQbert Me too. It’s why I am talking so long. I find it really hard to do this :(

My very first 'speaking video': A trailer about living in China! Full length soon💕 Put a voice to the face. Speaking on camera next. Whoo-hoo. Exciting. Not 🫤

@Adespoto3 @s_jmls @10ozrumpsteak @KewCogs @RickTusgrin72 @americancars11 @YappAppLtd Save your breath, the guy’s an idiot. The Highway Code allows you to undertake a vehicle turning right but only if it’s safe to do so - rule 163, *never* to overtake a vehicle turning right (especially one signalling the right turn).

@s_jmls @10ozrumpsteak @KewCogs @RickTusgrin72 @americancars11 @YappAppLtd What was the rule change? Have a think.

@InfernalBore @AlexBachII @HenryPryor Exactly. It's only worth what people are prepared to pay.

@AlexBachII @HenryPryor No-one's saying otherwise? But, given that the asking price of this property has dropped by almost £5m/>50% in four years, there's a reasonable argument that it wasn't priced realistically. And that seems to be a recurring issue, particularly in NW3. Asking price ≠ value etc.

and it's still not sold! Seven agents have had a go at this. 2022 - £9.5m 2025 - £7.75m Last year £5.95m Today £4.99m Tomorrow ?

@CleansedTweets I had a teen crush on Diana...

Without looking, what language script is this? It always reminds me of Japanese - kind of. If you know.... you know.

@pureguava10300 Another victim of their own stupidity

Posting this as a warning to others because scams like this are very real and people do get burned. Shared from the Tales of the Thai Side Facebook page for awareness. ------------------------------------ I saw someone the other day submitted their story about being scammed in Chiang Mai at probably the same karaoke I went to, so thought id share my experience. So my first night in Thailand did not go well, this was back in like 2019. After checking into my Airbnb, I headed down to the old town around 9pm. I ended up at a bar called Zoe in Yellow, packed with people and girls dressed in Santa costumes. There was one girl in a gold dress who caught my eye, but she was with a group of six friends and I just couldn't work up the nerve to approach them. I left disappointed. I ended up at another club called Spicy, where I met a girl and we started chatting. When we got outside under the streetlights though, let's just say she looked very different to how she looked inside the dark club. By this point I was very drunk and tired, so I just rolled with it. She and her friend took me for food and drinks, which I paid for, then dropped me back at my Airbnb, and just drove off into the night. Now, the smart thing would have been to just go to bed. Instead, I jumped in a taxi and asked the driver to take me somewhere. He dropped me at a karaoke venue on the outskirts of town, no doubt collecting a nice commission for delivering a drunk tourist to their door. I was shown to a room, and drinks and food arrived without me even ordering anything. When I asked for the bill after about 30 minutes, a man placed it on the table and stood blocking the door. Even through the amounts of drinks I had, I knew something was wrong. The bill was 20,000 baht, around £500. I completely lost my head, ripped up the bill, and tried to leave. About eight guys disagreed with that plan, and it got pretty ugly pretty fast. Eventually I swallowed my pride, apologised, and paid the bill. The Thais calmed down immediately, like nothing had happened. I got a tuk-tuk back to my Airbnb, only to find I had nothing smaller than a 1,000 baht note, and the driver had no change. I just handed it over and went to bed. Expensive, painful, and embarrassing. But honestly, great stories come from terrible nights. facebook.com/share/p/1CrdZG…

@MartinSLewis If I have to go shopping for anything, I go out, get it & go home as expediently as possible. I have far better things to do with my time.

Today's Poll: Do you see shopping (other than for groceries) primarily as a leisure activity?

@CleansedTweets @jungsungchacn I do it the correct way when with company, I do it the second way (the scoffing way) when on my own.

@jungsungchacn As I understand, although I could be wrong, in England we are taught the last way - the correct way. I was anyway.

Eating spaghetti has manners too… and most people never knew
