@bertsbooks Just want to say I love your account! Nicely written, gentle sense of humour. Ab fab.

Don’t forget, if you want to sign up for our Secret Santa you’ve only got until Sunday evening to do it! - Michael

@36davidobrien @RobinHoodPark @Worldpay_Global Amazing - thank you!

@Tabbycole @RobinHoodPark @Worldpay_Global Yea it took me about 20mins from start to finish. And you can set it up on multiple staff devices so your not tied to one smartphone

Anyone else on hold with @Worldpay_Global? Just wondering what the wait time record is. It’s been one hour and thirty seven minutes so far.

@36davidobrien @RobinHoodPark @Worldpay_Global I really appreciate your response. Can you do an immediate sign up David?

@Tabbycole @RobinHoodPark @Worldpay_Global I’m using square, but sum up is also available

@36davidobrien @RobinHoodPark @Worldpay_Global We are having same nightmare. Which tap to pay app are you using?

@RobinHoodPark @Worldpay_Global I have just downloaded a tap to pay app on my smartphone, at least I can trade while they do or don’t get the system back up and running

@bennpeifert And never underestimate tissue/newspaper in a bath. Heaps of fun. If you start young you can train them to chase a retrieve balls - start small with foil or mini foam/wool balls. Huge fun for them And you!

@bennpeifert Cardboard boxes, - Stanley knife and brown tape. Tape together and Build a high empire, doors into doors, hidey holes and recycle when bored. Also kids play tents and cat tunnels like this. Folds down flat, still used 8years on loves it

what my amazon looks like right now

Getting a kitten. What do I need that isn't obvious (litterbox, scratching posts, beds, etc)

@shashj Eight years after visiting We still try to recreate Lau Pa sat at home in the uk - not as good but worth trying, If you have space/time try breakfast at the Shangrila - unbelievable experience.

@shashj You HAVE to try Lau Pa Sat!

@faisalislam If I’m already charged 10% before today is this adding another 10% on top?

NEW White House sources say “This is not a negotiation” Not entirely clear where the incentive for the UK to negiotiate is - this 10% is the baseline.

NEW President Trump cheered on by auto-workers and oil and gas workers in Rose Gardens as he proclaims “Liberation Day” decrying “foreign scavengers” with expected universal and reciprocal tariffs on every country in the world.

@alexgroundwater @CashQuestions Carers Allowance, not means tested, also PIP, a lot of paperwork but can help.

@CashQuestions Ah, I don’t think she’d qualify as a) the diagnosis is less than 6mths and b) she isn’t bad enough to meet the criteria… it’s only 2hrs per day and only for meals, bed sheet changes etc.

Chatting to a 60yr old mate whose 87yr old mum has started to need home care for dementia. 2hrs pd @ £31ph is c. £23K a yr, her entire pension. He’s just realised that if she has to go into a home, it’s £84K a yr near him. Savings and house=5yrs. Her mum made 95! Inheritance? 😳

@anon_opin Lot of replies here for the WFH brigade… I understand the boredom in that situation but it was different if you were front line health etc, supermarket, transport, delivery, micro business. A lot of trauma in the latter categories.

Not to sound like a conspiracy theorist, but it's weird there's not more fictional shows set during the pandemic it's like 2020 didn't exist.

@terfnurse If you dry up for ideas in the future - uses for all of these would be handy!

@pub_that @leonburton @adamgaines Sunday Times at the weekend suggested a rise of the EA to £6k

@leonburton @adamgaines An increase in employment allowance would also be a good way to help SMEs cope with the soaring wage bills…doubt we will see it but it would be easy and instant.

Awake and stressing already…👀 Can only hope it’s not as painful as expected. #Budget24

@Citrini7 I’m biased but perfect in front of books on bookshelves

moving into a new office, currently taking suggestions for various memorabilia to strategically place as distractions/conversation starters

@x980ux89hx8h @elerianm The first cut is the deepest?!?

@elerianm I’m afraid the first cut will be a huge sell the news event …

From Bloomberg: “… exchange-traded funds tracking government debt, corporate credit and equities have now risen in unison for four straight months. It’s the longest stretch of correlated gains since at least 2007. Up 25% in the past 12 months, the S&P 500 has never climbed this much in the run-up to the first interest-rate cut of an easing cycle.” #economy #markets #investing #investors #stocks #bonds

@anon_opin Potato Waffles cook perfectly in a toaster

Why are nearly all ready-made breakfasts sweet (e.g. cereals)? The only way to go savoury is either toast something, or to get out a frying pan and cook from scratch. Where are the savoury ready-made breakfast options? Pop Tarts with cheese in, for example.

@dampedspring @darioperkins
