@xTRYB_Media Would you not be better off kicking by the hinges? Sure it’s extra kicks but much weaker with only a few screws holding the door on

[Adam Brown @ab_FinTech]

If you were at the top Langford car park driving an old light coloured Fiesta (light blue maybe) and heard a car beeping that’d be me. Your kid twice opened their door into my car door, while I was in it, you drive off, I’ve now a chipped door. Thanks arsehole.

@gibbonarms99 @mpw_ There are a great many skate parks built or being built 🙄

I’ve made the jump, not much Jersey content over there but we can change that, come say hello 👋

On ferries I’m told St Malo only has two berths (ports or docks or whatever called) that can take passenger/roll on/off ships so would they want to be at capacity with two CI ships at the same time given dictated by tide?

If you’re familiar with John Carpenter’s The Fog there are eerie parallels with Jersey and it is #halloween2024 so it’s apt but also, there could simply be a problem with the kitchen at the yacht

#staycation the art deco inspired air vent is delightful and the trellis is a nice touch

@ReywasYbot @dwedigital Ah come on now, Excel is still Jersey’s biggest fintech, sadly

@TheOnlyGuru Visiting Guernsey or a bumpy flight? 😀

[Adam Brown @ab_FinTech]

@BBCJersey Do it, don’t do it, I don’t really care tbh, it’s hardly Las Ramblas and once past the post office it’s a mess, a building site, the back of shops, a few small businesses and a pub where people drink Carling outside at 11am

@Getonthelash2 The most challenging part to swallow today was the statement that while you can move in with a suitcase that the property would have enough space to store it thereafter

@SandraHayes1 @LucyStevoJSY As a St Clement resident this is disappointing but there are, to my knowledge no local community doctors surgeries so we have to go elsewhere for nearby prescriptions but that does not seem to consider parish population density and needing pharmacist advice

@David5692369455 @JEPnews I did fall off there once, a dog shot across my path leaving me no choice. Still, lovely soft white sand to land on. I crashed into railings once too, that one was my fault and it bloody hurt.

@TheOnlyGuru Schools are closed, my kids finish at 14:50. While I recognise short notice cancellations, the disruption for both children and parents needing childcare cannot be justified going forward if this is what to expect in years to come.

[Adam Brown @ab_FinTech]

@TheOnlyGuru I saw the 1A eastbound full today, nobody else could get on as it was full of Le Rocquier pupils, much like the bus routes these things go both ways

[Adam Brown @ab_FinTech]

@JerseyITGuy Yes and no, I know many of my parents generation (65-75 ) perfectly happy to bank online, after that there’s a diminishing tipping point. Community is key, similar to libraries, banks are a hub, in my banking days there were many customers that just popped in for a chat

[Adam Brown @ab_FinTech]

@JerseyITGuy Typically the elderly and vulnerable but here’s the thing, they aren’t a profitable or even cost neutral segment to serve, it’s a cost. Any largely cash business these days is an AML risk.

[Adam Brown @ab_FinTech]

My goodness £4.75 for fizzy pop, in a local retailer, it must be hot 🥵

[Adam Brown @ab_FinTech]

I’ll say one thing about getting #Oasisticket it’s a great day for nerds like me who like to see (not receive) error messages 🤓
