Handler for over 6 weeks and getting nowhere. Asked for a manager and is apparently unavailable. If any of this is your customer service then you need to do some retraining as it’s crap #complaint
"I've always said that there is a place for tradition. But when tradition gets in the way of functionality, then it's a problem."

Post from a Beekeeper 🐝
“Its late, and maybe in the morning I'll delete this post, but I've just got home and for now I need to write this down.
Earlier this evening I received a message from a home owner to say they had a swarm of bees in their hedge, but they were worried about them because children had been throwing water at them.
By the time my fellow beekeeper and I arrived, what had been a beautiful prime swarm was reduced to a few hundred drenched bees, huddling limply around their queen.
I've already deleted the photos of the puddles of water, the dripping wet hedge, and the many, many dead and dying bees that hadn't been able to escape the attack; sharing those pictures serves no purpose.
We gently placed the bees that had survived into a collection box, and hopefully tomorrow, when they've had chance to dry out and settle, we'll check on them and if necessary feed them; they'll be exhausted and possibly (understandably) defensive. They've been through a lot.
Please, please, help me to educate your children, your grandchildren, your neices and nephews, your neighbours, your colleagues and your friends that a swarm of bees isn't dangerous - they're amazing creatures that are just looking for a new home.
Please don't let anyone harm them.
Just call a beekeeper who will gladly rehome them.
Please help me to spread this message and hopefully save any more bees from being unnecessarily harmed” 😢
Sad and unhappy Beekeeper
One of our year 5 children has recently lost her mum. We were writing persuasive letters in English this week and she wrote this gorgeous letter. Any kind of message or response would be amazing. Please share. @DUALIPA@MrBoothY6@Mat_at_Brookes@Talk4Writing@JamieThomasTFW

If you fall into water unexpectedly, FLOAT to live!
Fight the instinct to thrash about – instead lean back, extend your arm & legs, & float.

I tend to wear baseball caps in the summer, but following a nasty little diagnosis I now need to make sure I shade more of my head from the sun (particularly ears)
Where is best to try and buy hats?

@MartinSLewis@bbc5live Used cash today at the local butcher. Tend to try to use cash, where possible, in the smaller independent shops.
Still give the bairn her pocket money in cash.
