@monzo I did and your AI told me it wasn’t something you folks could help with. I’m going to decide to ignore the change unless it comes up through another channel.

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

@monzo is there an issue causing some credit scores from equifax to drop quite a lot? It’s not reflected on other places that show it, and a drop of 500 seems dramatic!

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

I mean it’s pretty good compared with the traditional telephony based one.

Slower one: between Vauxhall and Clapham Junction
Faster one: Between Wimbledon and Raynes Park.

SWR has launched Europe’s first rail-5G Wi-Fi between Earlsfield and Basingstoke, offering speeds 20x faster than standard. Passengers can now stream, video call, and download with ease—boosting productivity and making rail travel more appealing.

@SW_Help Thanks for confirming.

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

@SW_Help why were we kicked off the 1825 to Alton at Waterloo because of a train fault only for it to then depart (without us) and carry on its journey in service? https://t.co/dbg008uOo9

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

@SW_Help Delay repay will still apply, right?

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

@jamesdevonport Good luck getting that through planning! :D

This is a cool thread.

1/ Ever wondered how the national bulletin turns magically into the BBC London programme? Here's a short thread🧵 quick answer it all happens whilst you watch the weather #BehindTheScenes

An email from Julia yesterday is going to be far more likely to me than one from THREE YEARS AGO. Why are you only showing me the three years ago chat?!?!?!

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

I know it's Microsoft and therefore I really shouldn't be surprised....but they have BROKEN Outlook search by making it all algorithmic. Just show me it in time order ffs.

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

@caspararemi I'll have a look for that too!

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

@caspararemi I'll have a look on my next regular trip for a large volume of Pepsi Max! :D

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

@caspararemi Costco definitely sell the packs shops use - I think they're about £13 for a pack of however many.

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

I'm on the lookout for someone to join my team at HCRG and support with a brand consolidation project, bringing 10 or more brands into 3(ish).

They made it, and we had a productive meeting. Hurrah!

Back home now, but taking advantage of the train plugs to charge all of my devices!

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

Taking care on the platform this morning. To London… with a slight fear the people I’m meeting won’t make it, and I’ll end up simply heading home.

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

@Nickyhants Alton. Quite heavy here!

@travelling_wolf All dealt with! Many archived, about 15 to follow up on!

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

Delighted to be back in the office today, and after a week off to come back to just 97 emails!

I remember the days when it was in the 300-450!

[Nic Chambers-Parkes DipPR @nicparkes]

Interested to hear this, having just had a rather interesting response from my (otherwise exceptionally wonderful) NHS GP practice. 6 months on a stable dose, with at least another 6 likely.

[Professor Azeem Majeed @Azeem_Majeed]

A common medical myth is that NHS prescription lengths should be 28 days. This is nonsense. Prescription lengths should be tailored to the drug and the patient. For many drugs and for patients with stable medical conditions, longer prescription lengths are entirely appropriate.
