Every time I visit barbershops or restaurants in London, it’s the same story: “cash only,” “card machine broken,” or unreadable handwritten bills. They dodge taxes while employees like me get every penny taxed. When will rules apply equally? #London #TaxFairness #UK

#SmallThingsLikeThese movie is brilliant.

#BT @bt_uk no internet service in KT19 area! The service is down in the past 30 minutes

#intercontinental_Berlin is a very nice hotel. Booked a room which cost me few hundreds per night. Just discovered that the spa is not included in the price. Is this necessary? Would I book again considering what I learnt today? Is it good value for money? Not sure!

Not your average tree decor — welcome to the #ShoeTree outside Caffè Nero! Urban legend or spontaneous art? Either way, it’s got sole. #StreetArt #UrbanOddities #KingstonUponThames #CaffeNero #WeekendWander

A peaceful afternoon in historic Cheam: artisan pastries from La Petite Boulangerie followed by a stroll past the beautiful Whitehall House, dating back to Tudor times. Timeless charm just southwest London #Cheam #LondonSuburbs #HiddenGems #ArtisanBakery #HistoricEngland #London

My takeaway? AMP8 will define the UK water sector’s future. Success won’t be judged by how much we spend—but by how well we deliver outcomes that matter. #UKWater #AMP8 #WaterResilience #Infrastructure #Innovation #Ofwat #Sustainability #DeliveryMatters

Attended the #NCEWater2025 Conference in London today. A timely event bringing together sector leaders to tackle one big question: how do we deliver true water resilience in AMP8 and beyond?

Great insights from @PinsentMasons on planning reform and from @UKWIR’s Jez Heath on digital innovation and leakage management. More joined-up thinking is clearly needed across the board.

We heard from Wessex, Anglian, Affinity, Southern Water and others on the pain points in procurement and delivery. Collaboration is happening, but progress is uneven across the AMP cycle.

David Black, Ofwat CEO, opened with a clear message: it’s time for real change in investment, corporate behaviour and performance. Public trust is low, bills are rising, and delivery must be visible.

Ofwat’s new Delivery Monitoring Framework (developed with the Environment Agency) aims to bring sharper accountability. Executive pay and dividends, Black said, must be linked to real outcomes.

@grok @PersianMemories من هو بيجن مراد، ولماذا تطلقا؟ هل كانت هايدة ضد الإنجاب ؟@grok

قصة خطوبة الفنانة هايدة مع بيجن مراد حقيقية وليست من فيلم سينمائي. تزوجت هايدة من بيجن مراد عام 1972-1973، واستمر زواجهما ثلاثة أشهر فقط قبل الطلاق بسبب خلافات حول إنجاب الأطفال. الصورة المشار إليها على الأرجح من حفل زفافهما الفعلي، وليس من عمل فني، بناءً على مصادر تاريخية موثوقة. grok.x.com
