Brian: you can't say you're Xander's grandfather when you've said Adam is not family. If you don't see the situation as a consequence of your own actions, then none of you can make a first step to reconciliation. So shut up. And you don't have any "right" to anything. #TheArchers

Sth odd happened to my #CelebrityTraitors viewing... trying to watch on a ~20min delay, and abt 45mins (my time) in, the sound de-synced to the action (+ repeated earlier dialogue). I do hope #BBC iPlayer sort that out, as I didn't get the actual dialogue arnd the mission. Will need to watch again.

So. On the #BBCR4 2:00pm radio news, w John Healey’s speech to conf available to clip, devastation in Gaza, water co.s flooding Home Counties (…and what aftermath of the terrible Nepal mudslide?), #BBCNews still found time for *Nigel F*r*ge’s* thoughts on the Fairford incident. Aren’t they a marvel?

This one raises a fascinating philosophical question: if you list your flat for £200k more than it is worth, have you really listed it, or are you just posting pictures of your home's interior online?

Georgia Dean and her husband recently took their property off the market.

He bought the two-bedroom flat in Haggerston, east London, for £470,000 in 2014. But the mortgage rate was due to rise from 1.6 per cent to 4.8 per cent: renting the flat out no longer made financial sense.

They listed it in June for £650,000, a below-inflation increase. An estate agent told them “no one would sniff around if the price stayed above £600,000”, said Dean, who works in product at a tech start-up.

In the two months before the couple pulled the listing, it attracted only two viewings.

Hmmmm. Surely 95% of this depends on what job you do and the purpose of the call. For example, if you are the Foreign Secretary and the call concerns the collapse of the Afghan government, then yes you should be available. If you are an office worker and someone can’t find a file, then no.
