@bat020 I knew you before you were famous!

[dave anderson @56Hz]

@bat020 Or Shaun, even.

[dave anderson @56Hz]

@bat020 For a split second, I thought that was Sean Ryder.

[dave anderson @56Hz]

@bat020 You're the prince of Bethnal Green you're A number one!

[bat020 @bat020]

just got back from voting for Mamdani

@bat020 @MikeTappTweets I'm not entirely sure sautéeing represents traditional British values [sic]... and I'm not even approaching the shimeji issue with a bargepole (though personally, mushrooms is the mark of a superior fry imo)

[dave anderson @56Hz]

@bat020 @NatalieFleetMP @MikeTappTweets No mushrooms, no square sausage. Imperialist bullshit!

@A_MrBenMitchell @flightradar24 Imagine doing a long-haul flight from LHR, and it somehow manages to involved an LHR inter-terminal bus at both departure and arrival ☠️

Front story. Thank God the BBC exposed this hidden culture!

@AskPTSB Not complaining - just suggesting a super easy improvement to the website/app, that's all :)

[dave anderson @56Hz]

@PTSBIreland you should *really* fix the logic in your "travel notes" that prevents you from selecting today as the day of arrival in a foreign country. It makes no sense that you can't include today for those who only remember to do this at the airport.. asking for a friend 😅

@bat020 Then the town grew to the point they prefixed every number with two more. Then the "01896" code arrived. 8 digits to 11 - raging.

[dave anderson @56Hz]

@bat020 Was it never 081? Or did London jump straight from 01 to 01*1? Landline number length always felt significant for some reason. Our town was 0896 and my number was 4 digits too... >

Interested in people's views (particularly on the left)... John Smith. I've long held a (potentially rose-tinted) view that had he not passed away, everything would have been very different. Do I have it wrong as to what he was like? Have I been fooled by the jumpers?

[dave anderson @56Hz]

@bat020 My work office (when in London) is round the corner from there (Strand). I have been gobsmacked by the tourist ratio in that area of town, it's a bit surreal to see so many people seemingly with an interest in palaces and red busses.

I miss memepool. It should be rebooted, but with a fresher, up to date name. Crème de la meme, something like that.

Old email turns up something extraordinary from 2013... @StenaLine booking confirmation for Belfast/Cairnryan. Middle-of-day flexi fares. Extraordinary to think that the same booking now comes in easily heading for €700... doubled in price in around a decade... 😭

Israel place near top of the Eurovision tree? My triangulation from that is that they are much more concerned about international public opposition than they let on.

@flightradar24 7700 after a first go-around? Would be super interesting to know the reason for the squawk… 👀
