I’ve recently gone from an iPhone 8 to a 13 Mini. Can someone please advise how long it’ll be before I stop trying to press the home button?

This isn't *just* a sincere and committed actor and director trying to save something of value for a West Yorkshire community. He's backed by experts in the arts and heritage sectors. These are serious people, with an important goal. Let's bring this to as many eyes as possible! 👍

@itvx.com You're advertising The Affair until you're blue in the face; what your ad doesn't say, is that you haven't given us all of it! Where is the final season? I only found out there's a season 5 because I went online for an explanation of the odd S04 ending - no wonder it felt unfinished! 😡

Skalli is Liverpool’s latest street art. Unsurprisingly, he’s dividing the room. I like him 🥰 and also feel a bit sorry for him. Looks like he needs a hug. Your thoughts?k

Ok, in parts of the UK the eclipse was crap. But give the moon a break. He was exhausted after a full day at work: pulling the sea backward and forward across the planet, and pretending to be cheese. Then we demand he does a little dance in front of the sun just for our amusement? Leave him alone!

A company called Vue Skin pops up in my Facebook ads constantly. At first I thought this was a joke, and immediately headed to the comments. But no; it’s a serious ad. Will there ever be a time when women aren’t willing to make a laughing stock of themselves just because society tells them to??? 🙄

Can someone explain to me the fascination some men have with leaf blowers? All that obnoxious noise at 8am, just to move a pile of leaves from one side of the path to the other? It's blowing a gale here - the leaves will be all over the road again in half an hour. Fuxake. #boysandtheirtoys

This is how we do pubs in Liverpool. The Vines on Lime Street, and the Philharmonic Dining Rooms. Both designed by architect Walter W Thomas. Always ‘look up’ when you’re walking around Liverpool!! Photos by Dave Wood.

If someone is scaring you or making you nervous, try focussing on their nose. I've realised most noses look like a knob and bollox. Once you've seen it, you can't unsee it. I guarantee they'll look ridiculous and far less scary to you from that point forward. 👃 #NicsLifeLessons

A ring I bought with some money my nan left me when she died. It’s from the year she was born: 1925. And the Emeralds are because we used to watch the Wizard of Oz together every Christmas 💚

Just discovered Tommy Robinson made a film in my home town of Telford a few years back, about the child grooming gangs scandal. The fact that shit is going on, makes me glad to have left. The fact he has set foot there, makes me glad to have left. The fact it's Telford, makes me glad to have left 😖

I once grabbed Justin Currie, lead singer of Del Amitri, for a selfie, not realising he was on his way to the loo. He was very polite, but did say “you’ll have to be quick” 🤣
