Mick Fortune

Memories of what locals call “Shirkenes” reviv.ed by @BBCkatyaadler this am. Russian influences were everywhere - in the market, st the library..

Just because he’s been convicted of fraud is surely no reason to suspect him of criminal behaviour? Maybe he just wants to be richer than Elon?

@AmazonHelp Will do. Thanks for your help.

@mickfortune Thank you for updating us. Please let us know if you need any further assistance. -Morgan

@AmazonHelp You have charged me twice (different amounts) for the same order. Only 1 is correct. How can I pursue this further?

@AmazonHelp I eventually managed to reach a human who acknowledged the error and “gave me their word” that the incorrect amount will one day be refunded.

@mickfortune Are you able to use the contact us link we offered you previously? -Morgan

@AmazonHelp If the charge isn't explained by any of these situations, contact us and have the following information available:

@AmazonHelp The page lists the info you need when I contact you - but no way of doing so, just endless loops through the customer hub

@Beathhigh @scarletrix That explains the absence of photos from the ride.

@scarletrix Backstage…

Princes Street this evening…

Have decided to join the exodus and move to bluesky. Find me @mfleither.bsky.social.

@Beathhigh Friendly wee place near Pl des Vosges is bistrot-de-l-oulette.fr/fr

Parisian hive mind - I’m going to be spending a few days in the Marais district. Recommendations welcome (especially restaurants)!

@CostaCoffee That’s a lot of hoops to jump through! The date and time were on the post - 25 hours ago. There’s one store in Abergavenny - not difficult to trace. I just thought it might be worth mentioning it - not every message is a complaint.

@mickfortune So sorry to hear this Mick, that's definitely not quite right! Please kindly DM us the store address you visited, the date and time of your visit, along with your email address and full club card number so we can follow this up with you further. Thanks - Courtney

For the first time in ages my Scottish note was refused in @CostaCoffee. Well done Abergavenny!

The importance of grammar! The menu gave me expectations of spiced meat but instead I learned about vegetarian shawarma @LovetheAngel

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

@StagecoachWales Great! Thanks.

@mickfortune Hi Mick. The team have let me know they are aware of the issue on the website and this should be fixed by tomorrow. -G

@StagecoachWales Please can you tell me why the 78 bus from Abergavenny to Ebbw isn’t the service advised by your website?

@StagecoachWales Please advise whether 78 from Abergavenny to Merthyr is running as per timetable? Your website suggests the journey takes 6 hours!

@kerrysversion OK now I think. Thanks for the good wishes!

@mickfortune Hope you got it sorted! Nightmare x

Spent an interesting morning dealing with the fallout from my wife’s WhatsApp account being hacked.

@Greenchutes Thanks! Did the best we could. Lost several years of messages and photographs and she can’t open a new account for a week but that seems to be it.

@mickfortune Sounds horrid. Hope you got it fixed.
