Hi @eon_next, my fixed tariff is coming to an end on Oct 3rd. The renewal tariff of Next Flex (SVR product) recommended on the site has rates of e:53.16p g:14.72p, much higher than the EPG scheme price. Is this a regional thing? Not updated your website? Not worked it out yet?

Reminder for those of you who are London based - we're starting Web Analytics Wednesday again next week - if you are in the office please free to drop down for a drink or two. Any recommendations for a preferred talk? #WAW #Analytics meetup.com/london-web-ana…

I know #EcomChat hasn't been gone long, but if you do want a London meet up for digital folk, then we're resurrecting Web Analytics Wednesday on 6th July in Pimlico meetup.com/london-web-ana…

@JamesGurd @danbarker Thanks! Didn't want to just gatecrash the hashtag

@whencanistop @danbarker Well feel free to post that to the ecomchat hashtag Alec

I’m also trying to resurrect some in person meet ups as well. Trying to make London Web Analytics Wednesday happen again on 6th July at the Warwick in Pimlico @danbarker @JamesGurd: meetu.ps/e/L5GLQ/4jMCT/i

@mrdipeshashah Too early to tell. I think NZ have a couple of dodgy decisions in terms of their selection & choosing to bat first at Lords. 1st innings at Lords showed the fragility of the Eng batting. Avoiding a super fast, but injured fast bowler has worked, albeit by accident.

@whencanistop what’s your view on England after 2 tests of the McCullum and Stokes era?

Trying to resurrect Web analytics Wednesday in London - can you help us out by filling in this doodle on your preferred day: doodle.com/meeting/partic… (would you prefer Wednesday or Thursday?)

#MeasureCamp the question that was asked 10 years ago at MeasureCamp1 is the same question at MeasureCamp15: “Yes, but how is the company going to use this data/dashboard? What decisions are they making and how do you get them to use it rather than gut instinct”

@pablomiguezdm @Rich_Mace @JamesHenryChard @paulsinha @TheKnowledge_GU Bergomi was in the 1998 squad with Cannavaro at opposite ends of their 4 world cups. They’re in the same team v Austria, giving you the 24 years.

@Rich_Mace @JamesHenryChard @paulsinha @TheKnowledge_GU I'll start with 24 years: Franco Baresi was a member of the Italian squad in WC1982 and surely must have played against some players who would win WC2006 (Del Piero for example).

Oh good. I get to wheel out my favourite (and only) snooker factoid... The 2022 World Champion has played the 1948 World Champion (and 1940 runner up) in a competitive match - a qualifier in 1992.

@Rich_Mace @JamesHenryChard @paulsinha @TheKnowledge_GU Actually, on Boxing Day 1992 Giggs' Man U played Viv Anderson's Sheffield Wednesday in a 3-3 draw. Viv Anderson won the league in 1978, so this will trump that.

@Rich_Mace @JamesHenryChard @paulsinha @TheKnowledge_GU In addition to that Giggs won the league in 2013, but in Jan 1994 he scored against Bruce Grobbelaar in the famous 3-3 draw. Grobbelaar of course winning the league in 1982.

This is a reminder why I need to write blog posts on things I've done so I don't have to try & recreate from scratch: solving the campaign overwrite issue in SPAs in GTM without cookies: whencanistop.com/2021/04/gtm-cu…

@mrdipeshashah @SachinNakrani There are Jan signings who did well in their career & Jan signings who did well that season. Suarez got 4 goals in 14 that season, Liverpool missed out on Europe losing to Spurs. Fernandes had a greater impact - kept Solskjaer in a job for far longer than he should have been

@SachinNakrani Luis Diaz may want a word in 3 years time as the best January signing

I've just spotted that my site seems to have a lot of pages indexed for drug related terms, each with a title in Google, text underneath and generating traffic. None of the pages exist (and haven't ever) so end up at 404s. Anyone seen this happening before?

I was expecting today to be the day that Adobe Audience Manager's sunset was announced, not Google's UA's. Just did some training on UA where I told the client not to use GA4 because it wasn't finished yet.

@sipryor @TheKnowledge_GU Of course in 1872/73 they got a bye straight to the final, but that was at Lillie Bridge, but I'm not sure whether that can count as a home ground for them or not.

@sipryor @TheKnowledge_GU The Wanderers played at Kennington Oval by 1871/72 & the 1st FA cup. A w/o v Harrow Chequers, away at Clapham Rovers, home v Crystal Palace on Clapham common. Semi (0-0) at the Oval v Queens Park who subsequently withdrew. Beat the Royal Engineers in the final. 10 mile round trip

@TheKnowledge_GU Just realised that if (big if I know!) #cpfc win the FA Cup this year they won't have left London, only travelling to Millwall and twice to Wembley- so what's the shortest distance a team have covered when winning it? And the furthest?

Listening to the @AdobeSummit & @VancityReynolds talking about turning off to be able to do 'thinking'. I spend half my life telling clients I came up with a solution to their problem in the shower in the morning. Sometimes it isn't making time, but finding time you already have
