@PressSec @realDonaldTrump is still jealous that @BarackObama got a Nobel peace prize in his first term and he didn’t that he has been stoking flames to try to put them out to appear effective. This is called crisis management and is no way to run a company, let alone a powerful country

@McLarenF1 Any driver worth their salt would see in the mirrors that their team mate was behind and on that side and likely to make a move. He could have given room, but didn’t. Lando’s Mea Culpa is just covering up the fractures in the papaya rules.

[Steven Hedges @StevenH667]

@McLarenF1 Team mates should give each other racing room. Papaya rules ignored yet again by Oscar who is only out for himself. Lando was faster and deserved space, racing respect was due but not given by the selfish Webber pupil ( trying still to make up for multi 21)

@BBCTomEdwards an important point missed from your article is that the £8 peak for car drivers will affect those that live in the south and work in the north if paid via auto pay. Those that live in the north and work in the south will only a £3 daily charge if they use auto pay

@LondonStadium how about using one of the side screens to show the scoreline of #EnglandVDenmark

[Steven Hedges @StevenH667]

@ememess @andyweirauthor, I think used this as inspiration for his operation-on-self scene in The Martian

[Steven Hedges @StevenH667]

@ememess Ha, nicely written sir! Sounds so much like a hick it could almost be believed! I can see the sentiment. I live in hope that tRump is convicted and if that is the case I can make plans to visit your fine country in a year or two!

@AMAZlNGNATURE @ememess I'm sure I'm not the first to say this dog should never have visited Cat Neighbourhood!

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary, except I never did. I joined Twitter, at a tweet up! #comebacktwitter

@ememess They saw the sign, but decided to go anyway. Staying quiet, they climbed. Cresting the last rise they looked across a wide plain to see hundreds of waterfalls, frolicking in the morning sun. At that moment Billy sneezed. The waterfalls glared, then began to charge. “STAMPEDE”

@JensonButton I am going to Frome tomorrow, what is the must see thing there for a man, his wife and the dog!

@getcampbell you must have some memories of this painting, and the game no doubt!

@TicketmasterCS how on earth do you countenance making me queue for 40 minutes for Foo Fighters tickets to then error me out as soon as I reach the front of the queue and click for two tickets and send me to the back of the queue again. #Veryunhappy #wastedtime

@eon_next Hi, I'm not named, gas is being dispensed, you are still billing on estimates. The named people have contacted twice, visits have been promised, but thus far nobody has attended

[Steven Hedges @StevenH667]

@eon_next my mothers gas meter is broken. You told her 6 weeks to fix it. 8 weeks later my brother complained, was told 6 weeks. It has now been 4 months with no way of getting any kind of reading. What are you going to do or shall I contact BBC Watchdog? Feel free to DM a reply

@ememess worth reading comments too, so funny, haven't yet looked into the original story!

[Morbid Knowledge @MorbidKnowledge]

In 1935, fishermen caught a tiger shark and put it on display in an aquarium in Sydney.

Within a week, it became ill and vomited in front of a small crowd, leaving the left hand and forearm of a man bearing a distinctive tattoo floating in the pool.

Fingerprints of the hand identified the arm as that of former boxer and petty criminal James "Jim" Smith, who had been missing since 7 April 1935.

Examination revealed that the limb had been severed with a knife, which resulted in a murder investigation.

Early inquiries implicated a Sydney businessman named Reginald William Lloyd Holmes. Holmes was a fraudster and smuggler who also managed a successful family boat-building business.

Holmes had employed Smith several times to work insurance scams.

The pair then soon began engaging in criminal activity with Patrick Francis Brady, an ex-serviceman and convicted forger.

Smith was last seen drinking and playing cards with Patrick Francis Brady at the Cecil Hotel in the southern Sydney suburb of Cronulla on 7 April 1935 after telling his wife he was going fishing.

Brady had rented a small cottage in Taloombi Street, Cronulla at the time Smith became missing. Police alleged that Smith was murdered at this cottage.

Port Hacking and Gunnamatta Bay were searched by the Navy and the Air Force, but the rest of Smith's body was never found.

Brady was arrested on 16 May and charged with the murder of Smith.

Initially, Holmes denied any association with Brady but four days later, on 20 May 1935, the businessman went into his boatshed and attempted suicide by shooting himself in the head with a .32 calibre pistol.

However, the bullet instead flattened against the bone of his forehead and he was merely stunned.

Holmes eventually cooperated with the police stating that Brady had killed Smith, dismembered his body and stowed it into a trunk that he had then thrown into Gunnamatta Bay.

@ememess @scaryfish I'm enjoying Silo on Apple TV+, the adaptation of Hugh Howey's novels. Well worth a look based on the first few episodes I've seen

[Steven Hedges @StevenH667]

@getcampbell I love that adaptation, British acting royalty! Brian bought it for me for my birthday one year!
