@HelenArmfield It would be nigh on impossible for many of us, 📚

If you read 60% of the books you own in the next month, on what topic would you mostly become an expert?

[Wedge 🦋 @wedge.black @Wedge]

@sympmarc That many books?! I’m opting out of society, I’ve heard bad things about it

[Wedge 🦋 @wedge.black @Wedge]

@IntranetFocus Ah yes, I couldn’t hit 60% in reality either

[Wedge 🦋 @wedge.black @Wedge]

@steveprioruk I bet you already have such expertise

[Wedge 🦋 @wedge.black @Wedge]

@miekderuiter Local knowledge is always handy

[Wedge 🦋 @wedge.black @Wedge]

I gen need help to understand.

Why must front-of-house retail staff earn the same as backend warehouse staff?

If sex discrimination is involved, surely that’s about recruitment practices and not wages.

Again, I am gen asking: https://t.co/isa6Hbn9cK

Out of NOWHERE this woman says “what a beautiful coat”

Wild that some regions have charge choices and clean energy. UK just has optimised.

I submitted a location correction on Apple Maps! It was easy! I indicated where the cafe is really located and a day latter Maps notified me of acceptance.

But the cafe was still wrong but now had a ‘tick’ icon. I clicked the tick. Readers, the cafe disappeared 😩

@dnlfoxx I remember back when people would say “how does he read it upside down” and you or someone was like ‘i wrote this, I memorised this, it’s the craft’ — and now *I* can read it (right way up)

It’s here and it’s quite perfect, and the only celebrity book to grace my Billy.

Had to look up a word (thank you, Will Self). How does anyone, ever, learn the word ‘sacerdotal’? How? When?

I have a religious background and have read some books but…

“Oh my gosh [insert name], assuming we’ve met before, it’s been so long!”

Me, greeting people at tonight’s @ClearBox intranet meet up.

Why did i scissor-cut my own hair the night before a trip to London to see forty of my closest frenemies and potential strangers?

[Wedge 🦋 @wedge.black @Wedge]

Fifteen degrees and a cold wind. I need to find my big coat
