And of course the following 31 is already ten minutes late, which is more understandable than leaving early.

No thanks to the #cannyGNEdriver no. 30 17.18 to Slatyford, who left the Grainger St stop early, while I was running to catch it. Check mirrors, check time?

I hope you announce to bring back the original actors’ voices, otherwise I doubt that I will renew my subscription in the new year.

I also find the correction of errors no longer seems to happen and it feels like technical effects are favoured more than language learning.

@duolingo I have been a subscriber for years with a long streak in Portuguese. I enjoyed innovations like the stories with actors’ voices bringing it to life. The new AI-generated ones are awful. The characters sound the same in a flat tone and nothing like the original voices.

I don’t remember such glee or ridicule when we beat them 3-0 and took the CL spot and used to come 2nd like they do. A little respect for the Europe League Champions please, and less of the swipes. Ange was right about the media bias. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

@thetrainline do you have any comment on how you were able to double-book this reservation? The gentleman tells me he bought it from you today.

@Trip l bought a train ticket with a seat reservation weeks ago from Bristol to Newcastle and the same seat was sold to someone else through @thetrainline today. A very busy train with few spare seats. How does this double booking happen and does it happen often?

I read that there has been a price hike in the last couple of months of around 6%. But this is way beyond that. Is there a problem with the ticketing system? Because if tickets are now increased by 30-40% 5 days ahead this is clearly an incentive to drive.

@LNER last night I was searching for return tickets from Newcastle to Brighton for this Friday. Typically the prices for this journey vary between £86 and up to £150 if you leave it to the day or the day before. Now the cheapest prices are all £200.

Today a very kind and #cannyGNEdriver on the 47 who saw me running and stopped at Teams street to wait for me. Well done that man 👍🏻

Less than #cannyGNEdriver on the 10a who just drove on while I was running and signalling to stop on Team Street, only to have to stop at temporary traffic lights up the street for several minutes anyway.

@UPS my package was delayed by a day, and now delayed further, if I try to change the delivery day because I will be at work I need to register an account and pay, for your unexplained delays. This is not the case with other U.K. services. Appalling service.

Will this triumph over cliches inspire better punditry about Tottenham Hotspur?
