Hello everyone. I've written a book! A Bill Bryson-y travelogue about quirky places I accidentally went to: Luxembourg, Gibraltar, Finland, Monaco, The Vatican etc. It's called The World Less Travelled & the early Amazon reviews are...well, click here: amazon.co.uk/World-Less-Tra…

@henrywinter Basically identical to the 2024 kit but without the weight of that burdensome collar. Shame no navy shorts though - looks so smart. Like a suit!

The sales guy at my work, a man in his 50s, calls milk "moo juice". I've just recommended him for redundancy based solely on this fact.

@ClassicAdvertz Imagine this but with gender roles reversed. Completely inadmissible (and rightly so).

@JanAageFjortoft On one hand I can how they want to discourage teams walking off the field. Setting an example. But they should have done it the next day, at the latest.

@Laki1993 @JanAageFjortoft So we’re just going to ignore the fact that Morocco agreed to play-on, take the penalty, miss it and play the full final including the 30mins extra time and lose 1-0? This factually happened, we just didn’t dream it like Pamela Ewing when Bobby walks out of the shower. 😂🤣🤣

@JanAageFjortoft Imagine if the game had been the semi final. The final would have to be played again with different teams.

@JanAageFjortoft Imagine if Morocco had been winning 4-0 then Senegal walked off with 1 second left. The scoreline would have been changed to 3-0.

Barcelona versus Newcastle is classic box-to-box office, so much pace and boldness. Barca a constant threat through Raphinha and Lamine Yamal. But their defence struggling to live with Newcastle's own ferocious speed and adventure. Hall, Barnes, Gordon, Elanga flying. #BARNEW

Wow. Zepto’s new refund flow is basically a morality test. “Your item wasn’t perfect. Pick the refund amount that feels fair” Trusting the customer to be honest. That’s some bold UX. Well played.

@JacobsBen If you were the player who scored the penalty with the last kick to win the match 1-0, how would you feel about being stripped of your career highlight so the administrators could deem the scoreline to have been a 3-0 victory instead?

Although AFCON rules state walking off or refusing to play for a prolonged period is grounds for elimination, the decision to strip Senegal of the AFCON title two months after their trophy lift is a bad look for CAF. It should be within the power of the officials in real time to disqualify a team, but it's a hollow victory for Morocco to appeal and win in this manner, weeks after the trophy lift. Morocco accepted Senegal's return from their 10-minute walk off, gladly resumed play and took their penalty. Missing it, losing the game, then appealing to gain the trophy doesn't sit right, even if by the letter of the law there are grounds to do so.

@rorysutherland Queueing for two minutes to use a McDonald's ordering point, then standing in a crowded room of strangers in crash helmets for four minutes waiting for one chicken burger to be auctioned vs spending three minutes queueing to pay a cashier to give you one instantly.

Simple business tip. It doesn't really count as an increase in efficiency if you are making your customer pay the price.

There’s a moment in this clip where you can practically see Myron Gaines shrink in real time, his bravado evaporating as Louis Theroux calmly dismantles his views on monogamy. Then comes the awkward recovery attempt: dismissing his girlfriend and telling her to clean the room, trying to reassert control, but the moment’s already passed. The mask slipped, the room saw it, and the “alpha” act suddenly looked very small.
