@ShiiineOn_ @thewonder_stuff Have you ever spent an evening in Skegness explaining to you chalet mate who’s only even heard the song and not seen the the title written down that it’s not about the noise a depressed cow might make “sighs of cow”. What a weekend!

#OnThisDay in 1991 @thewonder_stuff released ● The Size Of A Cow

@mandarin That’s kind of you to say so 😀 The rest of the festival was a blast! Jesus Jones were brilliant, here’s to October 🕺

You guys were lovely 😘 Hope you enjoyed the rest of the fest 🙌

@mandarin thanks Manda, sorry for fanboying 😀

@MarkandLard2024 @marcrileydj @themarkrad @jasemonkey The service from the markandlardmerch website is almost as bad as the quality of the merchandise. I’m gutted.

Eh up! If any of you have bought a Mark & Lard t-Shirt why don’t you send us a photo of yourselves (in it) to start our Rogues Gallery! We’ll start! (No Horses were hurt in the making of this image… ). @marcrileydj @themarkrad @jasemonkey 🐎 🐴

@MarkandLard2024 how do I get in touch about a t shirt I ordered a fortnight ago, please? I’ve had no response to my email requests for a delivery date.

@HelenT_Housing @OctopusEnergy Have you heard about the Octopus Zero Bills homes yet Helen?

No.30 : Technology. @OctopusEnergy's electric car tariff. It was way easier to set up than I was expecting.

@Jewkneeor I completely agree 😂

@Jewkneeor Tell me you’ve never seen Foo Fighters live without telling me you’ve never seen Foo Foghters live 😂

@Tom_Besford @JEMsoc @RoyalMail @RochdaleCouncil We’ve been having postal problems in Calderbrook for ages. Some letters take weeks to arrive, some don’t arrive at all.

What on earth is going on at @RoyalMail? @RochdaleCouncil sent our postal vote ballots last week and they’ve still not arrived in #Littleborough and #SmithyBridge. Residents are concerned that Royal Mail’s incompetence will rob them of the right to vote in the #localelections

@nothingelseon One of the best gigs I ever went to! Bis at The Roadhouse.

Bis on the road! Melody Maker, 18 May 1996. #MelodyMaker #MyLifeInTheUKMusicPress #1996

@Ljbrierley88 here’s that new country I was telling you about @kiribatigov if they enter @eurovision I’d definitely vote for them!

@nothingelseon I still play the Paps Fritas album!

Advance! Fluffy! Papas Fritas! Nitin Sawhney! Babylon Zoo! True Noise! Mott the Hoople! Board games in clubs! Melody Maker, 26 August 1995. #MelodyMaker #MyLifeInTheUKMusicPress #1995

@solar_bud You too!

@theandybarrow Get well soon …

I have some kind of cold / cough bug which is horrendous. Testing covid negative but doesn’t feel like a normal “cold”. Isn’t ‘flu either. Pain in upper lungs / throat / head. Constant mucus but not really running nose. Lungs like sandpaper. Exhaustion. Had it a week already.

@BenosTDG @MartinSLewis I’m with ID mobile and I reduced my bill by two thirds, but after taking my phone abroad last week, the app and website not working to increase the spend cap and being stranded without a phone, I’ll be back with one of the well established providers asap!

@MartinSLewis Just halved my monthly going to ID Mobile after many years with Three with almost double the data. Gone for a rolling one month contract though so I'm flexible when black friday deals come around as I'm hoping to get a new phone this time.

If you've not changed mobile deal or broadband in the last two years do listen, easy savings of £100s are possible.

@RJHarle @MartinSLewis @OliviaHutton146 I’m a recent convert to the Lidl ones, they’re very malty and good on cheese butties.

@theandybarrow @MartinSLewis @OliviaHutton146 The Lidl ones are better. I will hear no arguments.

After much debate after my Salt & Vinegar recommendation the other day - the MSE team (mostly the fab @OliviaHutton146) have now collated the 40 most recommended S&V variants - most of which we now have.... And next Wed we will be doing serious investigative journalism as a team and rating them all for a) strength b) niceness. We will of course publish the results. And again, no need to thank us for our sacrifice for doing this, for you... ;)

@MartinSLewis @OliviaHutton146 😂 just checking. The results of any S&V comp without these would always feature an asterisk! If there are better S&V crisps out there, I need to know 😀

@theandybarrow @OliviaHutton146 Obvs! We're not amateurs Andy!!!! ;)

@cov_art That must have been massive! Are you still eating it now?

In the aspect of post-game analysis, I just paid a score for a plant-based burger, some 'chips' and a root beer. Today, some won, some lost .

@TriciaAyrton @RochdaleCouncil @Rach31M @Liam_JF_ORourke Thanks Trisha, how can I keep up to date with what food is being grown?

@theandybarrow @RochdaleCouncil @Rach31M @Liam_JF_ORourke That will be the choice of the communities involved with each garden

Pupils from local schools attended our full council meeting, speaking passionately about their vision to tackle #climatechange. The pupils’ motion to create community gardens was unanimously passed by councillors. Read the motion👉 bit.ly/44NLeRN #climatechangerochdale
