@theRSGB Brilliant news, proper modern thinking from @theRSGB and hopefully will encourage more clubs to think of improving rather than being stuck in the last century!

Can you see why there is no good will left in the NHS. We do 12h shifts 7 days a week. Is it too much to ask for hot food on the weekends?

@92jamiemcgovern I wondered if the ribs were secretly asking for metal. I think the confusion is because all bone should be reinforced.

Used a stethoscope during an orthopaedic ward round this morning and when I looked up, I swear I saw both disgust and confusion in everyone’s eyes.

@jongaunt @Morrisons Seems Cambourne, Cambridge @Morrisons is doubling self-disservice checkouts. Always have bagging issues, have waited up to 8 minutes for a staff member to clear it to finish. This and their new totally crap entrance barriers that try to crush shoppers too, or refuse to open!

Self checkouts need to be scrapped. Nobody wants them and they’re impersonal and not much quicker. Good to see @Morrisons realising this. I’ve never met anyone who prefers them and I’ve worked in supermarket. What’s your view?

I had a phone conversation today with a very nice young chap from Pakistan. This is how it went: "Hello, how are you today?" "I'm very well thank you for asking, how are you and more to the point, WHO are you?" "Madam, my name is Sanjit, and I'm calling you from Microsoft.” "Microsoft, is that a city in Pakistan?” " No Madam, MICROSOFT, the computer company. I'm calling to tell you that we have found a problem with your computer.” "REALLY, that's quite concerning.” "Yes Madam, it can become very serious indeed but thankfully I will be able to fix it for you.” "No, I meant it's very concerning because I don't HAVE a computer.” “You don't?" “No.” "Ahh, it must be a problem on your laptop Madam.” "Don't have one.” "Ipad?" "Nope.” "Tablet?" "I have none of those things. As a matter of fact, I don't even have a telephone.” After a few seconds of silence he said "Madam, you are lying to me now!" I said "Well, you started it!!" and put the phone down.
