If you were at the top Langford car park driving an old light coloured Fiesta (light blue maybe) and heard a car beeping that’d be me. Your kid twice opened their door into my car door, while I was in it, you drive off, I’ve now a chipped door. Thanks arsehole.

On ferries I’m told St Malo only has two berths (ports or docks or whatever called) that can take passenger/roll on/off ships so would they want to be at capacity with two CI ships at the same time given dictated by tide?

If you’re familiar with John Carpenter’s The Fog there are eerie parallels with Jersey and it is #halloween2024 so it’s apt but also, there could simply be a problem with the kitchen at the yacht

To buy an eSIM I must verify my ID?? To use roaming data, I need to prove who I am? This smells of data grab and a fundamental lack of know how technology can be used anonymously

I’m not going to name and shame the restaurant. £5.50 for a kids build your own 4 item breakfast, apparently the sausage counts as 2 items 🤨. The compensation was a slice of toast for each kid.

If Jersey is ever serious about Fort Regent they could learn a lot from how Ljubljana Castle has been restored. Modern structural architecture inside and flawlessly retains the outside character

Digital Jersey does it better but I do think there’s room for a statue outside The Hub, @TonyMoretta holding a phone with the parking app maybe? #legacy

So it’s possible for my car to connect to the internet but only update its software via USB 😫. #Schrödingersfirmware

Despite the weather Jay and the team from @JerseySport have put on great Learn to Ride sessions for both our kids this half term. Highly recommend for young wheelers of any age or confidence levels. Great job guys. – at Saint Helier, Bailiwick of Jersey

Sometimes I miss cash, paying for something costing 97p and handing over 50p and x3 20ps was perhaps the most mind boggling transaction ever possible
