If everything in the garden was rosy, I’d be lost for words 😏.

Big shout out to @AmazonUK 🤗 - needed to return defective item and total surprise how seamless and efficient the process has proved to be. Nicely done smile-machine.

Following on - does anyone know where any of the welsh constituencies are? Or how to pronounce names of people and places? The ‘Party of Wales’ is well named it seems.

I did feel sorry for those watching the long winded Welsh election results - needing to sit through two languages for each result must have been painful to the ears. 🥴

I hope the actors at The Invisible Man yesterday had as much enjoyment as I did during a visit down south. Well done all @ourstartheatre.

Very poor camera work at Miami #f1 Sprint. Close-to-circuit shots need to be higher and further away. All-in-all a forgettable event.

[Peter the Grump @TimeServedGrump]

Ok, let’s be negative in a positive way with @BBCBargainHunt.
1. Go back to sensible and sane team intros - lose the new extreme animated tendency.
2. Stop asking teams to close their eyes - it’s childish and not necessary.
3. (How about letting @TimWonnacott produce the show😍)

[Peter the Grump @TimeServedGrump]

The @BBC continue to mess up some good ideas. The Finish Line is a good idea - unfortunately the dire puns and needless ‘catchphrases’ just don’t cut it. Tolerability is now at my tipping point. #thefinishline

To @ScotGov & @WelshGovernment - Why is greyhound racing banned but not horse racing considering the injuries and fatalities involved? 🤨

[Peter the Grump @TimeServedGrump]

So @alibi_channel Do producers/writers not realise the clumsiness of Llewellyn Watts in #MurdochMysteries spoils an otherwise good programme. Such a shame 😡.

@Morrisons

1. It would be helpful if parking charges were shown on Morrisons website for each store.
Ways of payment should also be shown, card/cash.
2. Are parking charges refundable in store?
3. Web form (email us) fails to recognise post code.

If Richard Osman is replaced on @BBC House of Games - please ask the new host not to preempt the final buzzer - cos it’s SOOOO ANNOYING.

[Peter the Grump @TimeServedGrump]

@RoyalMail There has to be a more efficient way to upgrade our postboxes - ours, and many others, have been out of action for weeks wrapped in black plastic. (Ours is a priority post box but alas we need to trek some distance to find another) Definitely a poor showing for RM.

[Peter the Grump @TimeServedGrump]

How about @ITV have a new private detective series featuring Tom & Joyce Barnaby? Should be good tv.

[Peter the Grump @TimeServedGrump]

Oh what a load of rubbish #SilentWitness has become.
Time for @BBC to retire this tired series. (But of course they won’t)

[Peter the Grump @TimeServedGrump]

@PotteryThrow Do we really have to endure the infantile opening ‘comedy’ sequence on every show? Just like BakeOff it isn’t needed - there’s enough so-called comedy daftness during the show.

@FIAFormulaE - would it be possible for you to change the numbers font on the on-screen info during races? The current font for 9 and 6 can be interpreted as 0, which is rather confusing. Thanks.

Zero-Emission Vehicle mandate is highly beneficial to Chinese automakers, creating a significant advantage for them.

More tech issues with @skyuk / @skytv using #skystream - this time watching Great Mystery channel where subtitles are always (unusually!) on and cannot be turned off. I’m beginning to regret buying Sky - hope all is sorted before renewal. I can’t be the only person affected ☹️.

[Peter the Grump @TimeServedGrump]

It seems it’s beyond the technical expertise of @skyuk / @skytv to insert advert breaks in their correct place whilst I’m watching #Annika on catchup with #skystream. Maybe Sky need to invest in more competent technicians. This is yet another poor showing by Sky. 🙄
