Good evening, gang!
I have once again compiled a thread of little bits from 2022 that I found funny, heartwarming, inspiring or just plain silly. It can be tough out there so sit back, relax and hopefully something in this thread might make you smile!
Let’s go! 💕

@TicketmasterIre you were happy to take an additional £150 so my daughter could get the accessible tickets she needed to see Ed Sheeran. However, 6 weeks on you are refusing to refund the original tickets which you promised. What’s going on with your business and your humanity ?
Are we moving forward or backwards ? A brilliant visual assessment of the bomb scare we were caught up in at the ‘building common grounds’ event yesterday @humefoundation
