Most unfair @BBCBargainHunt today's contestants had hardly any stalls as they were all packing up

Trying to make a claim from @British_Airways for a damaged suitcase, been going around in circles for the last 2 hours.

Here is the problem with a lot of environmental measures aimed at helping us towards Net Zero: They are lifestyle changes, proposed by people who enjoy that way of living but don't understand why lots of other people don't. Until we have found a way of including everyone then we are going to increase the divide.

Looking back at Swindon Makerspace's history as part of our 11 year birthday! Nearly 6 years ago we almost doubled the amount of space by building a whole new mezzanine floor.

Celebrating 11 Years of Swindon Makerspace! Who could have imagined that when we started 11 years ago we would be where we are today. We have been at our space in Cheney Manor for more than half of that & always innovating on how to better utilise what we have built together.

One of our members has created a masterpiece that combines functionality and beauty. The rack not only holds your beloved nail varnishes but also features mesmerizing LED lighting that illuminates each bottle like a work of art. #Swindon #Makerspace #design

I recently visited Japan and many city's and towns have free city wide WiFi. The UK needs to catch up.

Sounds like profiteering
Replying to @OctopusEnergy
Extortionate cost estimates are stopping projects in their tracks before they can even start. A wind or solar farm that could cost £5m to build is quoted at over £20m just for the grid connection alone.

This is ridiculous some body needs to sort this out.
Replying to @OctopusEnergy
The problem: we have one of the worst connection queues in Europe. You can physically build a wind turbine or solar farm in a matter of months, but the average wait time to get it connected is 5-10+ years.

Exciting news for all makers and craft enthusiasts! Our makerspace is hosting an open day on May Day, & we're thrilled to tie in with the local indoor boot fair happening on the same day. Come explore our facilities, and connect with fellow makers in our community. #makerspace

This: "Until recently, I thought younger people, demanding a fairer, kinder world, would transform our politics. Now I’m not so sure. I believe Brand and others are helping to confuse and distract them in their millions, shutting down meaningful engagement." I see it in my kids

This is a honey bee. The pollen on her legs is from dandelion. What killed her appears to be on the dandelion which is the first food they have in spring. My bee keeper friend says - Please don't spray against weeds until you see blackberries blooming. No bees, no food.
