When supermarket home deliveries first started, there were countless tales around the internet about surreal substitutions. For a good number of years though, they've generally been pretty reasonable.

Today they went back to the good old days. Thanks @Tesco!

@tessamunt Thank you for doing this. I'm moderate to severe, depending on which criteria you use. I get PIP, high rate for both components and score 4 points for cooking. I had to take it to appeal though, both when I first claimed DLA and, subsequently, when transferred to PIP.

@lauradragon @TheCiderShedPod Helen must, as she blamed her accountant for the decision to make one of Susan or Clarrie redundant.

Starmer: "I think only a few months ago it would have been unthinkable for the things that have been said about Jess Philips without all political parties and the leader of the opposition to call it out in terms...to condemn it...if you're not prepared to stand up as a Tory MP and denounce what's been said about her, then you need to seriously think about why you're in politics in my view."

@jen_jstephen After what Eddie said to Susan? I'm not sure which is less likely: Eddie agreeing to them being invited or Neil and Susan accepting.

@CarlBovisNature Your postcards are great for @postcrossing .

@RosalindAmbler @AdamHickford Perverting the Course of Justice - that's the biggie. On top of that, Driving without Insurance and, quite possibly, Taking Without Consent, plus, quite possibly, Dangerous Driving or, if he's lucky, Driving without Due Care and Attention.

@AdamHickford @linniRsbooks They can't invalidate the third party element of her insurance, so you're right, they probably are paying out for all the damage that night but will, no doubt be reclaiming it from Mick's insurance, and the council's, when the truth comes out.

@Appleandroidapp Worse, he was happy that her marriage was pretty empty, because it meant that he, not his father, was her "go to" - at least in his mind. He even seemed to think that she should/would have taken her marital woes to him.

@Appleandroidapp I'm sure they do, in their heart of hearts. We've heard the occasional expression of concern over his behaviour and/or attitudes.

@lauradragon I think that, when he first came to the practice, he was a pretty newly fledged vet-nurse. From what I can see, the training takes 2-3 years, so I would guess that he's now in his early to mid twenties. I agree that he behaves like someone about a decade younger.

@Appleandroidapp I'm pretty sure the original agreement was that Fallon was free to take freelance jobs, outside the tearooms. Fallon's plan, at the time, was to build up her independent business, while using the tearoom to pay the bills.

@MDut21 Quite often, yes. Like her mother, she has many admirable qualities but can frequently be very unlikeable.

A great appointment - and a really promising sign of the approach of the new government - congratulations @JamesTCobbler and @Keir_Starmer

[Serena Blanchflower @AllSerene]

@Appleandroidapp Belated happy birthday!

[Serena Blanchflower @AllSerene]

@AdamHickford I've seen a few press reports, over the years, of people who've got smashed then driven home, or tried to, crashing the car en route. They've then been found sleeping it off in the wreckage.

@sarah_mattocks Because Joy isn't ready for that. It seems fairly clear that that's what Mick would like but, so far, Joy has resisted his attempts to take things further.

@G6JPG_ I don't know if anyone's tried it but the obvious problem is that hearing aids are generally designed to be unobtrusive and tucked, out of sight, behind your ears. This suggests that they would generally be in the shade, both from ears and hair.
