Carol was a mischievous old baggage, and we all said at the time that Alan was ill-advised (though not ill-intentioned) to be so hands-on with helping Carol with her banking. I bet Carol did it on purpose. #TheArchers

I don't believe Anna, a barrister, however bereaved, would make such a serious allegation like that against Alan (and in front of others to boot) without any evidence of Carol's intentions / or confusion / or mischief. #TheArchers

This a million times. People of colour being dragged on to debate maniacs about imaginary labels & race science is an abomination. proper ‘how German are you’ Nazi shit Note that people like me with white migrant parentage never asked to defend our identity Englishness. Is. A. Made. Up. Thing

Another thing to bear in mind is that, for ££, they don't last long. I've recently given up smartwatch entirely after abt 10yrs, 4 different watches (#2 replaced v quickly by #3: mfr's cost/product recall). For sustainability reasons, decided I didn't want to support a product w such short life.

Agree. [My main gripe with The Odyssey was not Damon’s farewell to the “Bronze Age”, the lack of Gods / owls, or even the cute little capri-length leggings… but that because of Nolan’s choice of format (and BFI sold out), I was forced to see it in an Odeon! 😱With people who go to the Odeon!]

I'm starting to get controlly creepy vibes fm Carpet. "Can I ask where you're going?" Er. What now? No. You may not. None of yr f-ing business. And the other day he said sth abt what Lily was wearing / should wear which didn't sit right somehow. The Carpet dialogue is giving me the ick. #TheArchers

If the Faithful are strategic, they'll know Hannah could be useful as the game goes on (in mission puzzles, and in catching Traitors), but I suspect they won't. #CelebrityTraitors

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.

My concern abt unusual baby names, of whatever era, is I suspect the parents of trying to impose on child's future just that bit too much. An in-cohort name (of any culture) seems to give more space for a child to discover their own self. (Never met a Janet who wasn't my ma's friend 🤦🏻‍♀️). #TheArchers

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?

Bravo!! My mother's attitude to dusty shelves was: if you must, sign your name in the dust, but please don't date your signature. And I am very much my mother's daughter. A damp cloth once in a blue moon, if I can't think of anything better to do!

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.

Hard agree. Been lookng at a particular st for a few yrs (but admin capacity presently consumed elsewhere, so not followed thru). For 2-3 yrs, houses +/- £1m according to decor/refurb. And then one offered at £1.25m. No discernible extra "amenities"... that little 'nudge' is a QUARTER of a MILLION.

80 hours of embroidery! This aerial landscape is directly inspired by Dartmoor and I'd say I have another 30-ish hours to go? I'm now starting to fill in the fields for the sheep, the tor area will be done last as I'm still deciding whether I want a slope or not 😅 I hope you like it! #art

In my Ambridge, Brad's going to get a First, become a quant in the City (tho mostly wfh), earn a wedge plus bonuses, and buy/build Tracy a bigger swankier hse than her sister's. If B never takes to driving it won't matter bc he can afford a driver, and wave at Amber pushing a buggy. #TheArchers
