If any of my UK followers see this and have or know somebody that has a stoma and fly regularly across Europe I’d be interested to know if you’ve encountered any issues.

My wife had an ileostomy late last year and we are planning a holiday, would love to be prepared.

@Hack_Thursday @_dc151 Life skills. I’ve progressed from eating them to drawing with them

@kmcnam1 You've made my day by reminding me that "Still Alive" exists. Takes me back 😻

[roachy @roachy]

@UK_Daniel_Card Both are challenging, but I find SaaS hardening more frustrating - it's like having someone sneak into your house whenever they like and change the doorknobs, and leaving a post it to say they've changed shit

@UK_Daniel_Card And this is the key phrase in that tweet.

People need to employ critical thinking, and assess the source of what they’ve been “told��. Is the person doing the telling a competent source? Do they have skin in the game? What’s the motivation?

[roachy @roachy]

@UK_Daniel_Card @timb_machine Every time I feel the dull ache of imposter syndrome, I just look at the news, realise we’re being governed by complete fucking idiots and get on with my day feeling altogether better about my abilities

Short timelapse of the partial solar eclipse taken at Haworth on 12 August 2026.

Just above the sun's horizon to the left you can see two sunspots.

@ajusticiar @ZiaYusufUK Why would they have done a risk assessment on that when they didn't do one on the impact of Brexit on the Dublin agreement - the reason why we have such a huge asylum backlog in the first place: https://t.co/Qgj7kYiLsL

@Smiffy288 @CallumLyon £25k is pretty much minimum wage now on a full time job for a 21 year old.

37.5 hours per week: £24,784.50 per year (£12.71 × 37.5 × 52)

@Phil_Gwilliam @Donna_Rachel_ @RobertJenrick Crazy thing is, it's not even a "cash shave" - they only take online bookings and payment is through the website. Looks like Honest Bob's been doorstopping a legit business (out of hours, because the shop next door is closed too....)

[roachy @roachy]

@RobertJenrick It doesn't matter if the previous owner of the business was dodgy. Barber shops get re-let as barber shops, cafe's get re-let as cafe's, etc because the layout and fixtures are set up correctly and there's no alteration of use planning issues.....

[roachy @roachy]

@RobertJenrick You turn up at a shop when it's closed (and the shop next door is too), claiming it's not a legit business when they have loads of positive reviews and a working online booking form.

I hope the owner sues you for defamation....
