As I’ve just had my annual screening, it’s a good time to remind y’all to take a moment to check yourself. Early detection is so much better e-mail.breastcancernow.org/c/1UHd0YE5ee...

Touch Look Check
Get to know your normal by checking your breasts regularly. Touch your breasts. Look for changes. Check anything new or unusual with a GP. What’s your normal?

Now I feel my previous comments about Swede may have been too rash. Although we had no veg box last week as it was somehow destroyed in transit, so maybe that influenced my opinion.

What with Davina McCall’s news and the fact I’ve just had a check up, it’s a good time to remind people to regularly check your breasts (or pecs), early detection makes so much different.

Yeah I can’t see them actually living up to it. And it all comes down to culture, if the advisors don’t care about the company then this just won’t work.

I’ve just been through the pain with my 75 year old neighbour who just wanted to change the name on an EE account and has been through the wringer with no internet, new equipment, multiple advisors and lots of tears. No actual customer service.

Emily Webber @ewebber.bsky.social · 03/08/2025
I mean calling up customer service and them taking responsibility for an issue feels like basic customer service, but they want a pat on the head for it. And to launch it as a major campaign.
