So much of Amazon is AI drop shippers repackaging the same crap Temu and AliExpress are selling. EBay and Etsy too.

I'm not sure how people do it on eBay. They wouldn't let me have an account because I was selling customised products so couldn't send them photos of all of the products in my possession.

People shoehorning in phrases that aren't normally part of their vocabulary.

Peter Drury there saying Johnson is "living his best life".

It's the same with "gassed" now every wanker on Radio1 slips it in every chance they can. You actually hear their sentance pause to force it in.

I can't work out if it's "industry" looking for perfection or people's needs to be patted on the head for doing your job.

I work in a role at the minute that's pivotal on customer service, but I just appreciate the positive feedback as and when it comes. No need to ask for it for buying a Double Cheeseburger or updating my details on the phone.

Airport lounges are so overrated. Honestly feel like it's one of those things that people feel important about, but they're shite.

Some cosy bars and restaurants in the quieter parts of airports are a much better option.

Yeah 100% especially nowadays with the credit card access craze. If i’m lucky enough to blag a business class flight on work or points (never on my own dime) then the lounge is delightful as they’re usually empty and actually peaceful, rather than feeling like you’re at an all you can eat

If not, a bougie little wine bar for me (god i’m so old now)

What happened when Boris had that row, in the public domain wasn't it, he just rode it out, of course If it's just scurrilous gossip that's happening here it's debatable what a super injunction achieves?

When The Cure found out how much ticketmaster was adding in charges when they'd deliberately kept ticket prices low they got ticketmaster to refund everyone. Presume Oasis will be doing the same now they've suddenly found out the UK fans have overpaid

Do people take out superinjunctions if it is just scurrilous gossip? Libel laws would stop that.

When they close off the roads after the game but then allow cars across the pedestrian flow to turn right out of Burbage Lane onto Winding House.

There was a very near miss last night. They need to decide if the road is closed or not. You can't tell everyone the road is closed and fine to walk down and then have cars driving down it, especially now all games will be ending when its dark.

Its getting worse by the game, started out with one or two people going slow, now its a free for all with people flooring it.

They cone off the the exit from Burbages Lane so the only way people are getting onto Winding House is by driving on the wrong side of the road, adding to the likelihood of someone being run over.

It's bizarre really both the attitude and dare I say it the lack awareness,and the whole City wide as well, I don't know what happened for us last night but we ended up reluctantly taking the car as the buses don't run after the game and it would be ridiculously late to get the bus into.town and then out again, different at the weekend, now sort it stagecoach and other providers you incompetent twerps, anyway we parked in Tesco and got away quite reasonably walking back to Tesco's taking a leak there with all the toilets locked except the disabled so quite a painful que for many,got in the car and started moving virtually straight away afterwards about 5mins at the.most we were out onto the triple 4 beautiful tbf!
