Can we get rid of that goon Rob Key now please #benstokes

#bbccricket my office is 15 minute drive from the Canterbury ground. I need to get the kids from school in Dover at 3.15. Do I switch off the computer and head off to catch a couple of hours? The PM isn't the only one that has to make a major decision this morning

Budgets are stratched are they? What does stratched mean? #r4today

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

Justin Webb has just hit nail right on the head in #r4today too many middle class bubbles and no idea what's happening in the real world

@SkyUK Dear Sky, you have left a 88 year old housebound woman (my mother) without internet and TV. She can not place a shopping order, she can not get out to the shops, she cannot watch the tennis. You are doing nothing to help.
Why do you think this is acceptable?

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

What lovely and uplifting words from Kate Mosse on #r4today

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

The @BBCSport radio commentary on #TheHundred is currently diabolical. The idea is to commentate not waffle on inanely and then suddenly start talking about the game when something exciting happens #Terrible

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

How refreshing to hear Nick Robinson on @BBCRadio4 say how awful the expression 'on a journey' is. Perhaps he can have a word with those in charge @BBC6Music #r4today #bbc6music

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

Well @BBC6Music are doing a grand job on making Sunday early evening chilled vibes a thing of the past. I must be so passe #6music #sundayvibes #missyouTom

[Britain's Lost & Living Pubs @Britains___Pubs]

A bar stool is called a bar stool because it's supposed to be.... at the bar. Real pubs support the age old custom of drinking at the bar itself, whilst gastro environments prefer you to sit at tables like it's a restaurant. Look out for pubs with real barstools and the metal bars that run along the bottom for people to rest their feet.

@cerysmatthews Brenton Wood!! Love this tune 🙌

@sainsburys the dealing of my recent complaint has been most unsatisfactory with nobody actually bothering to find out what the issue was, just assuming. What has happened to customer service in the UK?

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

@sainsburys I'd like someone to explain why I spent 30 minutes on the phone to customer services on Sunday trying to resolve being overcharged for an order and then get charged even more? What happened to Live Well For Less? #sainsbury #poorservice #shambles

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

Crikey, listening to @BBCRadio4 Today this morning is like watching the current incarnation of The Four Tops #r4today #bbcradio4 #bbc

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

Oh dear. Who was in charge of the newsreader rota for @BBC6Music today? Once is forgivable but twice is quite laughable #6music #news #isanybodyhome

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

@aberquine @BBC6Music I think it's always pre-recorded sadly

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

Has the newsreader for @BBC6Music gone down the pub? #news #sundaypint #newsreader

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

⁦@facebook⁩ is this a scam?

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

@VodafoneUK Why bother sending the first message when the process can be done?

[Jonny Wren @jonnyoyster]

@davidhepworth your mention on the podcast re the comma in Paint It Black made me delve in to my extensive Rolling Stones printed library and I found this - not extensive but confirms Decca were on their own
