I wonder how many thousands and thousands of legitimate usable @Apple iPads there are out there that are now useless junk due to lost passwords and accounts… strangely enough my mother with dementia has no idea what her account or password is…

Modern Britain. Wheeling my disabled mother around @cityoflondon Burnham Beeches for a bit of fresh air, going through a ridiculously complex logging in system to park in the disabled bay and a £70 Pure Park fine lands on doormat. Nice way to treat disabled people 👍

Off to Normandy we go… one advantage of getting up at Stupid O’Clock is getting to see this familiar winter friend

Serious question, the dentist I’ve been registered with forever apparently doesn’t have an NHS dentist anymore so I go private or nothing. I’m in Normandy for a week innSeptember, is it worth looking up one there assuming the pain doesn’t get unbearable?

My 83 year old dad is a bit senile. He signed up to @virginmedia without knowing what it was. We were aghast at the £160 monthly subscription he’ll mostly never use. We cancelled it and moved to a £30 EE one. Virgin have now sent him a termination bill for £1,500 @MoneySavingExp

And the enshittification continues - even in areas you wouldn’t believe… the three tomato plants in the left are in an expensive tomato growbag. The fourth one on the right is in some soil I dumped in the gap. It’s double the size of the tomato grow bag ones…

This could be the most NHS thing ever said. Apparently my parents GP Practice don't use email as it's so unreliable 🙄

ANZAC DAY 2026, as school kids, we would walk to the @CWGC ANZAC cemetery in St Mary’s Churchyard, Harefield to lay flowers on the graves on ANZAC Day. It continues to this day. Respect to those boys who are so far from home #anzacday

Are VW taking the p*ss? Let’s sell cars with no spare wheels and then convince people they need one? They wouldn’t give me one unless I paid so I bought a 2nd 🤚 one as soon as I got the car

I know @nickfshort will be interested in this, I’m in Arnhem, brothers, born the same day and time, died the same day and time. Pretty tragic 😞

A very happy birthday to the greatest comedian since the renaissance, @EmoPhilips as is traditional in the Motherland we must recite something from the chronicles... "My brother died from a sting from a bee... the natural enemy of the tightrope walker..." Have a great day Emo

Genuine question, we’ve a new road junction and it’s causing a bit of confusion amongst the locals… so let’s test your knowledge. The left to right lane by the grass verge - is that traffic light controlled? 🤔
