They're ok. Not overly sweet.

One minute it's all about coagulator in the dairy, now it's allegedly-innovative ways with coleslaw.
SW all about the food tech this week, aren't they. Is this leading somewhere?
I preferred it when it was biosecurity in the pig farm.

Can we stop comparing *any* UK leaders with Churchill please? Thatcher wasn’t Churchill, Boris bloody Johnson wasn’t Churchill, and Keir Starmer wasn’t Churchill.

Even Churchill wasn’t the Churchill everyone imagines.

Just shut up about Churchill.

Isabel Oakeshott: anti-migration commentator, economic migrant to Dubai, possible future evacuee of the very British state she insists is broken.

Isn’t it funny how mobility becomes acceptable when it’s your own?

I see the ‘patriotic’ parts of the press are delighting in a US President having a go at the PM.

Great stuff abt creating the LPA.
Wd love it if more on how to ACT as the Attorney under LPA whn the time comes. Stuff inc KYC, credit record linking, what is "billing address", separation of assets, tax etc etc. If more widely known I wdn't be having such odd convos w confused bank callhandlers.

It's not Roosevelt we're dealing with. Hell, it's not even Nixon.

No. No. No. If you have arranged to meet a date, or potential date, or whatever, never EVER ring up and ask to meet early. And if yr date does, say, ‘Oh, sorry, wd love to, but won’t be back from X”. Straighten yr mascara. Arrive at planned time.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Why is Daveed sharing sensitive and not yet bedded-in Brookfield family information on the street with Lynda?
For narrative purposes, obvs.

With some incredible actuarial input from the team at Scottish Widows we have launched a projection of cancer prevalence in the UK for 2045.

A 58% increase. 5.4 million people living with or beyond cancer.

A combination of ageing, rising incidence and better treatments accounting for the rise.

The way people tell me “you’re much too political” bitch, do you think I WANT TO BE? I want to be sitting on a fucking beach and drinking cocktails without a care in the world but you fuckers keep voting in FASCISTS!

Who is not judging you at all.
Oh no. Not at all.

Great news!! Thank you for sharing!
(That venue could use a re-brand, tho').

Thank you for letting us know, @keridavies.bsky.social
Safe travels, Eric.

I very much want Chelsea to succeed. She is talented and works hard and has built a client base who rate her.
Chelsea *deserves* to succeed.
But at the same time, I don't want my hair done in a tin cubby-hole that retains lingering fragrance of both ends of a horse.
#TheArchers

There are sources of advice for start-ups / small businesses to be found in local libraries, local councils, enterprise hubs, etc etc. I do wish Chelsea would ‘supplement’ the advice she is getting from T & J. ✂️💈 #TheArchers

People in Clacton are calling Nigel Farage:

Nigel Mirage.

"Get you a drink?"
...at a party with a free bar (provided by the parents of the bride)?
#BinZach #TheArchers

Some bits of Zach ring true tho: Never worked out why there IS certain type of fin. adviser that doesn't twig clients who've slogged guts out yr-in-yr-out to save a bit or run their business wd not be impressed by flash swagger. But they exist in droves.
Is it Zach's wristwatch?
#TheArchers

Absolutely. I am very much against turning Akram into the village clown. Even if he had dug up one tulip by mistake, it would reveal the bulb and he'd correct the mistake. Stuff planted commercially usually in rows etc. Obvs not to be dug up. Grrr. #LeaveAkramAlone #TheArchers

Gonna have to do something else in the Zach scenes, can't listen, loathsome creature. I don't understand why everyone (inc Josh, Pip, and especially Stella) doesn't just tell him to get 🪢.
Even whn he apologises, it feels wheedling.
Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. #TheArchers

I am getting quite confused by 2 x Justins.
Such mischief from the SW!
Fortunately Justin 2 is referred to only in the "Justin and Sigourney" formula.
