I would like to share this passage from Patrick Stewart’s autobiography, in which he comes to America and eats a hamburger.

This is kind of insane .. Spanish FA has asked to leave UEFA for “ state interference “ - when actually the thing we should be talking about right now is Spanish women’s team and their World Cup victory ..

@northernassist Thanks for letting me know.

Perhaps if you're going to cancel services, it would be better to let people know on your schedule the day before / early in the day, so they can make an informed decision about whether to travel?

It's a truly abysmal service.

.@northernassist We came to Blackpool for a day trip only for our train home to Burnley to be cancelled - now having to cut our visit short by several hours. It's really rubbish. Why have you cancelled the peak trains?

[Emma Bowden @EmBowds]

@northernassist The 18:19, 19:19 and 20:19 have all been cancelled. We received a notification of this at about 1pm. 🤷���♀️

.@AvantiWestCoast and your WiFi isn't working.

[Emma Bowden @EmBowds]

En route from London to Manchester (1248 service). We paid £120 for our tickets (singles!) only to sit in a sweltering hot carriage with no air con. 🥵 It's pretty rubbish tbh. Do better, @AvantiWestCoast and stop charging the earth for substandard service.

Growing up in the northwest of England, all parents would complain about their kids leaving lights on by saying 'It's like Blackpool illuminations in here' so how on earth did they express this down south?

Girl with a Pearl Earring, painted by Vermeer in 1665, might just be the most famous and beloved portrait in the world.

But who is the girl?

Well, that's the thing. There was no girl, because this isn't a portrait...

@AmazonHelp Thanks - this is just one example, but there are plenty more from other sellers if you do a search.

Hi @AmazonUK @AmazonHelp - there are loads of @BBCCiN products being sold on your platform. Are the proceeds actually going to charity? Just checking before I buy!

@AsdaServiceTeam Hi - hoped to make my Xmas cake this wkend. Sadly, you delivered dates 9 months past their best before date, and brandy with the security tag on. Plus, our ice cream arrived completely melted. Not impressed! Thought we'd give ASDA delivery a go. Big mistake! 😂
