@WalkerMarcus @JHallHDI I was brought up to believe that Easter Day was Church of England and Easter Sunday was Catholic (and therefore correct).

@JHallHDI I wondered if it was an Established Church / Roman Catholic split

I’m trying to remember why Easter Day is U and Easter Sunday is non-U.

@jess777j0 @witte_sergei You could argue that 'England' as a sovereign state hasn't existed since the Act of Union with Scotland in 1707. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@witte_sergei It's not England?

Iran isn’t the “oldest country” no matter which pedantic definition you use. The answer is either Egypt, China, Japan, or San Marino.

@Tiare_MP "Get on with it" is the perfect phrase for this project.

Contactless payments coming to Metlink services from April 12. (Finally)

@OrevaZSN In the UK, the Easter Act 1928 defined Easter Sunday as the Sunday following the second Saturday in April. However, although the legislation was passed nearly 100 years ago, it has not yet been brought into force.

I've never understood how they decide when Easter is. sometimes it's in March, other times in April. How does that even work?

@SahilBloom Orange juice

What's something most people think is healthy that's actually not?

@Jbn3ex Dying at 54?!?

@BNHWalker None of them should be called 'South West Hampshire', as none of them include Bournemouth and Christchurch.

South West Hampshire is not going to include the southernmost or westernmost part of Hampshire, give me strength

@MuseumCommodore I had a book of computer games that I would type in. It taught me a lot about how BASIC worked.

Yep! This would sound strange to anyone who got into computing from the year 2000 onward, but we really did spend hours and hours typing in BASIC code from computer magazines. In my case, it was on my Commodore 64. Who else did this?

@1ssve Mine is constantly suggesting 'fir' or 'fur' rather than 'for' (just now it kept trying to change 'for' to 'fir'!) Infuriating! Also, even though I live here and use the name a lot, it still hasn't recognised 'New Zealand' as a phrase to suggest when I start typing it.

iPhone keyboard: “I see you typed the correct word. Anyway, here’s a different one.” Me: changes it back iPhone keyboard: “Absolutely not.”

@ltscomplicaited Love the hair!

@markothoughts NZTA Is incapable of designing normal junctions.

Warkworth to Te Hana - aside from the woeful traffic numbers here, surely we can just use roundabouts initially rather than ginormous spenny full motorway interchanges. Upgrade them later

@NJ_Timothy @TerraOrBust An official communication to Buckingham Palace refers to ‘Lord Peter Mandelson’ - heaven help us!

David Lammy told the press he opposed Mandelson’s appointment when he was made ambassador. The official record says otherwise.

RT if you want me

@createstreets The scale is completely different in the ‘fixed’ version.

Over the next generation the ever-growing crowd-sourcing of popular design preferences is going to transform the creation of our streets and squares from elite preferences to popular ones. This will be good for public health and happiness and for the longevity and resilience of our buildings. You heard it here first !

@Dirtyandvirgin A

Which pillow are you choosing? A or B?

@ronsterd89 Try it on toast which has been thinly spread with butter and marmite.

Bought an avocado. I'm trying to like it. What can I do to make it taste good?

@devonzuegel @wrathofgnon People with a dropped kerb should not be entitled to a resident’s parking permit, but should pay the annual fee because they are taking a space.

One of my pet peeves is when there's street parking and private garages on the same street Pick one or the other — you get the worst of both worlds when you pick both!

@imdylanwild Hi! 👋
