Durham County Council under Reform leadership WINNING 4 national awards last night

@cathynewman @SkyNews will this be reported by you in the interests of balance?

Or will you continue with your anti reform political activism in breach of Ofcom guidelines

Dynamic Colour Schemes With Modern CSS

What magical CSS can we use to create not just a quick and dirty colour palette, but a whole colour scheme?

@jet2tweets thanks Rachel :))

I guess you won't be able to say if that's the same for RyanAir (don't seem to have a twitter for customer support) :D

@jet2tweets Hi - we've booked a flight next week via Thomas Cook. Their documentation states a small bag of 40 × 30 × 15 cm. Checking your site it could be "one small under-seat bag measuring up to 40 × 30 × 15 cm"

If it's a hard suit case that matches these sizes, is that ok?

@AldiUK hi, seems the motor on my recent purchase is broken - never asked (in store) for a replacement before.
