Just to make you feel old - told a customer we'd paid her a refund by cheque, her response was 'what am I supposed to do with that' ' cash it' says I, 'How?' came the reply 'Take it to the bank' (whilst desperately trying to styful my laughter). I then explained how cheques work.

I am so looking forward to this. Heading to the local beach as soon as I finish work, then straight into the pub for crochett club. The perfect evening.

The impact of summer 2026 can perhaps best be seen from space Exceptional heat combined with limited rainfall has truly transformed the landscape across the UK
Lets be honest, this is not exactly surprising considering how some journalists have been dragged through the courts for writing factually correct stories.

The most dangerous thing Sigrid Schultz carried wasn't a weapon. It was a notebook. The Nazis feared reporters who asked questions, checked facts, and refused to look away. As Sigrid wrote: "The greatest service we could render our country was to marshal the facts as they were." 🗃️
I am terrified. Might be because I have friends in the States that have told me what some basics cost, let alone major medical treatments.

They’re not identical. In some Dee is looking mad at me. In some she looks mad at something else. They’re completely different. I can’t delete them.
My friends daughter has geese, they live with my friend, the geese not the daughter. 1 goose has a leg injury. My friend suggested it may need dispatching. Daughter objected suggested her mum takes said goose to the vet in the car. Daughter has now found a specialist vet -
This dad is wise. The best bit of advise here is be comfortable in your own skin, I'd add be yourself.

The government’s transphobic code of practice is now up and running. But we’re not going to stand still and take it, we're supporting a legal challenge led by a trans person and a trans inclusive organisation. But we can only do this together. Will you join us?👇 goodlaw.social/ldco
Love this thread. What it shows is that all those things society/marketing men/spin doctors ect try & convince you everyone is doing, and you're weird for not, well people just aren't, its the human Sheep that are. I'm definitely not a sheep.
John Self@john-self.bsky.social · 3d agoWhat mundane token of modern life have you never done? I’ve never had a takeaway delivered.
Do you want to hazard a guess at what this “jaw-dropping” list of freebies included? What luxuries asylum seekers might be being given “for free” in Thetford? Xboxes? Plasma TVs? iPhones? Ferraris? Let's take a look👀 🧵 1/22
Love this thread. Reminds me of a time I forgot to put a Christmas decoration away, a friend complained quite vociferously, that decoration has not been put away in over 20 years, other also now remain on display all year round.
Krista D Ball is Canada's Snarky Potato@kristadb1.bsky.social · 4d agoAnd, for whatever reason, these specific placemats featured in the food photo each and every time, and somehow brought out the worse in people. So the placemats that are only supposed to be a part of my winter rotation are now 365 days a year out of spite. /end placemats are ableist and classist
Love this. I have a trans nephew & watching him grow into the human he is meant to be is an absolute joy.
Stella Sacco@antlervel.vet · 4d agoI check Facebook 1-2x a month for family stuff. Turns out a few days ago my dad made a long post begging for understanding about trans people by his fellow boomers. Last paragraphs are below. Dad doesn’t always get it 100% right. He doesn’t need to. He loves and defends me; that’s all that matters

When I taught climate change we would discuss the range of potential effects. I Never thought I'd live to see the more extreme effects, now I know I will & it's terrifying.
Zack Polanski@zackpolanski.bsky.social · 5d agoI'm not sure it's accurate to say I've "claimed it" as much as it's a scientific reality. The climate crisis is killing people and on track to get much worse. Seems big & worth having a plan to tackle. I'm calling on the Government to have an emergency meeting and create a plan - and carry it out.
This made me laugh so much more than I should have.

Imagine owning a cafe and trying to understand what you are being asked to do here. It's simply not possible.

It is 14C, windy & raining, tonight I am going to sleep undue a duvet with windows closed. All very weird after the weather we’ve had for the last few months.
Half way up a mountain in Wales, among thousands of bits of slate, I happened to spot this. Good work, kid.
I’d recommend everyone watch this - it’s rather cheering to watch our media discover that an incompetent crank runs our national equality regulator
