@LucyInTheSky22 Always an aisle. Near the front if possible, but rarely willing to fork out for it.

@jonsavagerocks @PodcastShowLDN Amazing Sav, well done!

@bigbigjoe1 @kitzluvs I'd say shoving your nose into a thick-cut slice and inhaling deeply.
Closely followed by admiring your teethmarks in the butter to confirm you've put on just the right amount.

@bigbigjoe1 Hey look, I don't make the trends... find yourself a Gen Z TikToker if you wanna start new stuff...😜

[Richard Holmes @onanotherplane]

When people ask me what I do I always tell them I'm a writer, not a journalist. Because journalists change the world. They speak truth to power. They hold the corrupt accountable.
I, on the other hand, do the really important stuff...

Great news for @CapeTownTourism and @Wesgro this summer, with a new airline competing on the London-Cape Town route from October!

@dannicholl Have you read 'The Rules of Civility'? I loved it even more than 'Gentleman...'

@LucyInTheSky22 My favourite is when you go "Yes! A 'Press' page!"... only to find a collection of all their past editorial coverage, usually way out of date, and zero contact deets.

@winecoza @diemersdalwines Is that @bigbigjoe1 I can see up at the front of the queue? 👀

[Richard Holmes @onanotherplane]

@TheRegt1792 @SkyNews @GBNEWS @BBC Interesting... what is going on exactly?

[Richard Holmes @onanotherplane]

@drizzleanddip If you could maybe make up some samples and hand-deliver them to my house? It'll be great exposure for you... thanks in advance. 🤣

Empty glass at Wood Fired Grill means it's time for #burgertwobeers ...

@jack_sommers is he into Bill Nighy cosplay or something?

[St Helena Tourism @sthelenatourism]

Experience #StHelena in one epic day. Escape to exceptional beauty, immerse yourself in diversity, feel the love of our small island culture. 

We hope our little slice of heaven puts a smile on your face, and creates a sense of longing to come and visit for yourself.😊

@dannicholl Please let me know the correct procedure for abdicating my social handles and brand in your favour? Thanks...

"Plant-based denims"? As in, cotton?

[Wanted @WantedOnlineSA]

Invest in your wardrobe with Levi’s new range of sustainable, plant-based denims, released in honour of the 150th anniversary of the iconic 501s
