During a short chat with Tara Palmer-Tomkinson we admitted that we used the ability to say her name correctly as a sobriety test

Right, we are here for the Fulham game. What time do the teams come out? #BREFFC #buststopfc

@martinlewis.moneysavingexpert.com Re: NI top-ups. After your advice, I applied. DWP aim to call within 6 weeks—tick. But the “call” is a 2-minute box-ticker just to say they’ll call later. Targets met, action delayed. Did you know this is how they’re doing it? Is this acceptable?

A Telegraph headline suggesting something dodgy and just one party involved. Read the article and it’s clear that the Tories do it too and it’s all within parliamentary rules!

All that's left of the once huge glacier at the top of Mount Kilimanjaro. #ClimateCrisis www.nationalgeographic.com/adventure/ar...

These sad looking characters are part of a campaign group that raised £55k to oppose a greenway providing a safe route for people on bikes. Reading an article on the case it seems the real issue their village has is cars, some parked on the narrow lane, others rat running to avoid an M11 junction

“According to the statisticians at OPTA, Salah competed in eight duels and won only one. Bassey, by contrast, won six of his eight duels” He’s been great recently but Calvin was immense yesterday #FFC

Two classic ‘being the first’ from Sess yesterday during #FULLIV Firstly the speed of his reaction for the goal and then how quickly he gets to Muniz to celebrate. Our boy is well and truly back! #FFC

Really #FFC?
