That thing where you have to stop yourself mid sentence when you realise you kinda sound like a drug dealer: ‘You out of yeast? Fresh or dried? I know where you can get some. Also, flour, there’s this supplier, I don’t know if they’re still taking orders but...’ 🤭 Yeah, that.

Q: How bad were the Tories' losses in the local elections? A: So bad that the choice of font size in the small screen design of the @guardian app turned out to be too big.

When you donate blood, they let you sit around after eating free biscuits & crisps 😄 Finally donated for the 1st time & joined the bone marrow registry at the same time. This app actually made it really easy to find a location and book appt: play.google.com/store/apps/d… Go on...
A glimpse of our potential future: order $38 (£30) hoodie, have to pay an additional £8 Royal Mail fee for them to handle the VAT collection of £6 😕 Customs duty kicks in at £135. Though @ZombiesRunGame hoodie 🏃‍♀️🧟‍♂️, which ships from US, is rather nice indeed.
The Media Bar @BBC Broadcasting House joins an annoyingly long list of bars that don't follow the rules of The Licensing Act 2003 (mandatory licensing conditions) order 2010 🤨 Couldn't order 125ml glass and don't see any sign of one being offered. #beingalightweighttax
