“Cycling allows me to reach an almost meditative state. With every pedal stroke, I'm given a chance to empty my mind, focus on my breathing and connect with the nature that surrounds me.” Processing grief on the bike for @brooksengland https://t.co/orLjy9o87b

@HMRCcustomers It’s a wild goose chase that I’ve been trying to sort for years now 🤷🏼‍♀️

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

@HMRCcustomers Ive called spent eye watering amounts sitting on hold as it’s an international call, I’ve tried the webchat. I’ve even written. When I do get through they say they can’t confirm my identity and say to call someone else. I call them and they say to call the last people.

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

@HMRCcustomers Because I still get emails saying I need to file self assessment

@LukeB_MTB @Eurostar Hoping to reschedule this week. But it’s not a great impression. I got made redundant last week and my visa is tied to work. So it was important

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

After 24 hours of arriving at King’s Cross for my @Eurostar to Amsterdam I am finally home. Was left in Brussels last night after they let us board the train only to find out once on that the staff were only booked to Brussels. Aka the train was never going to AMS

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

I couldn’t.
No communication, no help, just abandoned in another country is no way to run a service. I understand delays happen but this was shocking. 24 hours for a 4 hour journey and I missed a job interview.
Thanks @Eurostar

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

No help find hotel in Brussels at 1am and we were told we could take any train the next day. The next day at the station we were told all morning trains were sold out and could only take 3 hour regional trains. I ended up just boarding a half empty thalys at 13:30 that they said

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

@danbarker I’m still not home. They left us in Brussels last night and still trying to get to Amsterdam 😑😑😑

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

@danbarker It’s been super unpleasant. Still waiting to board my 18:04 train to Amsterdam

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

@DaveWhite99 Yep especially as work had me relocate a few months ago and I lost my pre brexit eu status. So now have a limited window to find a new job to keep my visa.

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

Speaking of… I recently found out I’m up for redundancy. If anyone needs a strategist with 15 years experience in Amsterdam get in touch.

3. Financial pressure makes agencies takeout their experienced people. Each downturn tends to lead to people in the middle getting cut and big gaps between junior and senior talent.

Not only have @KLM @KLM_UK @AirFranceKLM lost Liam’s bike and potentially ruined our trip of a lifetime they’ve lost a piece of bikepacking history. Please help us put pressure on them to find and return the Stooge so we can begin our adventure

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

The first time I experienced N+1 😅🤣
And around the time I discovered going far was fun

[Paul Powlesland @paulpowlesland]

So, I find myself 30ft in the air up a tree in Wellingborough- surrounded by police, security & tree surgeons- trying to prevent an illegal tree felling. How did I end up here? Here’s an outrageous story of nature destruction & collusion between authorities & private developer 🧵

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

@paulpowlesland @NorthantsPolice Proud of you as always Paul 🤣🤣

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

@CountOnCrunch I am beyond words at the complete and total failure of care for clients and the lack of regard for what implications this has for my future. I used your service for 9 years... and you have made things nothing but a total nightmare the last few months

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

Yet again @CountOnCrunch have completely fucked up. Been trying to close my company since Sept with them. Anyone knows a UK lawyer who can help me figure out what to do now that my company was forcibly dissolved

[Laura Scott @Laura_Scott]

@hselftax Yeah doing this now... but definitely need a lawyer. The accountants hid that I was getting notices for not filing etc.
