Just published my annual list of interesting propositions I discovered this year: https://t.co/ZV6jOrHOEj

Some faves from this year's list... 🧵

@AvantiWestCoast Thanks Pete, that sorted it.

Hi @AvantiWestCoast, do you know your Delay Repay website is broken? The 'submit claim' button right at the end of the process just loops constantly.

[Glyn Britton @glyndot]

@rorysutherland Octopus trialing something similar: https://t.co/iukipPkw16.

@markhadfield I had to miss the event at the last minute, grrr. Is there a way to watch a video of it? I've had a peak in Eventbrite and can't see anything obvious.

[Glyn Britton @glyndot]

@PhilLewisHQ Thanks Phil. Good catch on “SME”. As you might expect, I’m constantly making that point, and we understand and operate at a much more specific level. It is, however, an oft-used hashtag…

[Glyn Britton @glyndot]

Staff then walk through removing the signage. Say we all have to leave or pay £300 upgrade to First. So we all leave the carriage, which is now empty, earning no revenue at all. Staff say it’s “ridiculous”, “THEY make us do it”, “please tweet about it”. OK…!

[Glyn Britton @glyndot]

More amazingness from @AvantiWestCoast. Coach H on the 18.51 from Euston is clearly signed Standard Premium, so 40-ish people sit down, ready to pay their £25 upgrades. 30s before departure they announce there’s no Std Prem, only First.

@markhadfield Mark, @oppidansocial does exactly what you’re looking for, and it’s brilliant. But in Manchester.

If I were advising the UK Prime Minister, I would tell them to make a televised statement to the nation tonight (or very soon) along the following lines:

1. We are in an energy crisis. This crisis is having a dreadful effect on everyone’s finances. And it is going to get worse.

[Glyn Britton @glyndot]

@neilperkin Amazing! Well remembered, and thank you. I’m diving in! 🤿

I’m going to Bluedot Festival 2022. https://t.co/Cbxk5AItUt

@christianhern Had a demo of https://t.co/nwFIo6nTFG, it does a beautiful job of this.

@rainbowbex Thanks for sharing!

@andybudd Unless they have a CMO with a design background ;-)

[Glyn Britton @glyndot]

@andybudd Although I find working with designers to ‘bring to life’ different directions is often the best way to help strategy emerge. To understand if the theory survives contact with reality and, of course, to make it understandable.

[Glyn Britton @glyndot]

@andybudd In my experience, strategy *is* important, but there’s just not the need for that much strategising, as it’s relatively obvious and fixed for several years. So, as you say, delivering against it is everything.

[Glyn Britton @glyndot]

@andybudd @stef Suppliers don't want new customers right now because, given how much wholesale energy prices have risen, they'll lose money supplying at the current price cap rate.

@morphcostumes Tried your email but the reCAPTCHA isn't working. I've just bought your Frosty piggyback suit, but everyone says it looks like I'm wearing a snowman codpiece, not piggybacking on the snowman! Do you have any tips to create a better illusion please?

[Glyn Britton @glyndot]

@tristanwatson 👋 @tristanharris. Many thanks for sharing. Hope you’re well.
