Watching the women’s champions league, and do you know what the most annoying thing is? The standard of refereeing. Same as the men’s game. #chelsea #Arsenal

Commentators being kind to Lindsay there. He’s got form for hauling people down because he’s out of position. #pnefc

Time we banned fireworks except at public displays. It’s all year round now for one thing or another. Dogs having a meltdown. #fireworks #ban

Question for transport nerds. If there is a vehicle parked dangerously at a junction, who should it be reported to? I just went through GMP’s website and it said to ring 999. Surely that can’t be right? #gmp #parking

Much better second half performance. Love Lauren James but her injury was clearly making us play with ten players.

Brilliant goal. A bit of quality on the cross and the header and we score. Who’d have thought?!

Great analysis by Ellen White. Absolutely spot on. Going long because we’re panicking.

Same problems as the French game. Being outplayed in the middle third and panicked passing as a result. #lionesses #euro2025

Baffling to take Lauren James off. Apart from Russo she’s the only one who looked like doing anything.

Despise it not technically being illegal I never think it’s a good look for driving instructors to tell their students to pull over and park over advisory cycle lanes.

Tempted to do a parking inventory around our estate. So many cars parked blocking pavements, dropped kerbs or obstructing junctions.

I know #fitbit and #strava differ in how they calculate calories burned but Fitbit is showing 5.5k calories and Strava 2.5k. That’s a huge discrepancy.

Everything was odd compared to the hybrid I use to commute. But then it also felt really quick in comparison. It was a necessity to use it before I ride 80 miles around London on Sunday! 😂

Why doesn't HMRC allow you to wait in a queue on the phone like every other organisation in the world? 10 minutes of automated messages and then ... "all our advisors are busy... goodbye"!!

Local facebook groups have disintegrated into house swaps, business directories and parcel location services. Lovingly intersperesed with "Would the person who did X get in touch before I take further action." I mean I'm sure they will, won't they?
