@AerLingus my friend can't travel on our upcoming flight due to a mental health episode, another friend wants to fly with us - can I make a name change on the booking without incurring the insulting accusation that we are scalping tickets? £80 for a name change is unacceptable.
@AcademicChatter "with Foulest Hatred" (in bold) is my sign-off of choice when I've been asked by someone to help them draft an email. Means they actually read what I wrote and not just fire it off!
@MariaRSuarez @PhDVoice@AcademicChatter@unisouthampton I was persuaded to attend graduation by my family - my alternative suggestion of going out for a nice meal together instead would've come to a similar amount + no daft hat to show for it at the end.
@MariaRSuarez @PhDVoice@AcademicChatter@unisouthampton I'm renting my kit but would quite like to keep the floppy hat of wisdom. I asked by email for their best best best price for just this item, got quoted 40 quid, pay on the day. I think there is haggling room left over though...
@Meredith_Seeley I'm buying the floppy hat of knowledge, but hiring the rest for my graduation. Hoping that my children will wear it as generic historical fancy dress.
@heisenberg912@AdamRutherford Had the monster not eaten him, Bernard would've had to go to truly monstrous lengths to get his parents' attention (beyond biting legs and breaking toys!). As a parent reading this story to a little one, you're saying to them "Right now, Bernard" this is our special time together
