Alex

Teetering on the edge of deleting this account since the poisoning of Twitter. You can find me quite easily on Threads. Oh, and I really ought to check my Mastodon account!!

Is this thing still on?

Morning @ZenInternetHelp - I’ve woken to no connection this morning. Checked the status page and can see that both Weston Super Mare and Winscombe have issues; I’m near both but don’t know if that’s the problem. Can you advise please? (I’ve turned it off and on again already 🤣)

@TedLasso Come back Ted!

An old friend taught me this term “ussie” a while back. Call me Cormac McCarthy ‘cause this one’s for the road.

@DrNads77 Even princesses need their downtime!

@SolusEstAlex Feel for those who think they can’t not. I just won’t!! I have an out of office. The world won’t stop turning. I’m just not that important (despite being a Dr Princess 🙄😆)

Nopity nopity nope. I’m on holiday with my kids, husband and dog. Not opening a single email. Was off with burnout for 3 months, my dept didn’t fall apart. Funnily enough the department functioned without me. Protect yourself. Please.

@CliveMyrieBBC Just watched Mastermind; the whole of North Somerset is aghast at your pronunciation of the motorway services on the M5 - it’s pronounced ‘Gor-Day-No’ 🤣

Happy Birthday to @RadioGibraltar - I heard on the lunchtime news that it’s 65 years old today - amazing feat! #faveradio

@nancy_van_rijn Yes, I’m with you there!! I now have TWO PAIRS of glasses - one for screen-use, the other for a TV and distance! #gettingold

I was 'take-a-picture-with-my-phone-so-I-can-zoom-in' years old for a while, but now I'm officially 'reading-glasses' years old 👓😄

@BootsUK Hi, still waiting for delivery of my Black Friday/Cyber Monday purchase (ordered on 28/11); thinking about asking for a refund. Can you help please?

Never mind #ImACeleb and trying to win meals for a jungle camp, Matt Hancock should be in the UK, in his office, and delivering for constituents wondering where their next meal will come from. You’re not a celebrity. You’re an MP with a job to do.

@Bucky_0Hare Hello mate!

@SteveHeyes1 It’s a different-but-similar platform to Twitter for those who aren’t happy about recent changes ;)

@SolusEstAlex What on earth is it

Any of my Twitter friends on Mastodon yet? Let me have your IDs so I can follow you 👍🏼

@miss_jewells Totally understand..!

Thinking about giving Mastodon a try. Anybody on there and have any views? Not really sure about sticking around here after recent events. Thoughts?

@miss_jewells Haha! That just reminds me of this…. Schtop!!!

Mastodon account set up. Let’s see what it’s like… @CallMeAlex@mastodon.world if anybody is on there.

🎉Happy Birthday @BBC on your 100th birthday! When you were founded we had a King, no one knew if they could afford to put their heating on and we'd just lived through a global pandemic. Times really do change!
