For the evening show, here's a glimpse of Vulcana in her finery. Alongside her is Atlas, or William Roberts, who was billed as Vulcana's brother throughout their career. Their true relationship was quite different!

Hey I hope you can help. I’ve changed my laptop since I last used your software (which was a while ago) and haven’t got my unique code anymore. How can I retrieve it? Thanks

Got really excited for a millisecond when I saw a 9. But sadly no number 1 in front of it. wine

I didn’t get this #government #emergencyalert ? I don’t know if I’m happy or worried about that 🤔 But I guess when Armageddon arrives, I’ll be blissfully oblivious

Hey this anything to do with you? I suspect it isn’t. But it’s a quite sophisticated fraud. DM me if you want the details.

Well I never did! Who knew this could get you deported to #Australia back in the day. They should bring it back as a crime. Tree-destroying councils would be shaking in their boots! Hey what an ingenious campaign to make me drink even more of your wine 🤔

It’s encouraging to see the #ASA using its power ‘Etihad Airways’ ‘sustainable aviation’ ads banned in UK - The Guardian’
Super unimpressed with your #airfryer bought #Silvercrest SHFD 1400 B2 in November 2022, used it since December & it stopped working in April! No guarantee on it and no way of trying to fix it. Is it a case of built-in obsolescence?

Love this story. If only I could get Sid this well trained. ‘Litter-picking eco-dog collects litter on its walks and puts it in the bin - Metro’
That's a wrap 🎉 Being a B Corp is so much more than a mark as you've seen during #BCorpMonth. To achieve success, the #BCorp movement needs us to ALL go beyond. We hope you’ll join us on this journey as we continue working to build a better world, together. 🙌

I had #SmartMeters installed yesterday. I was interested in what type of #energy-efficiency advice I was going to get, given it’s a requirement under the #SMICOP the Smart Meter Installation Code of Practice. Have a read of my #linkedin post about it

One reason why relying on tree planting offsets to get us out of trouble is misplaced. I’d heard a stat 90% of saplings die! I didn’t want to believe it, but… ‘Half a million trees have died next to one 21-mile stretch of road, National Highways admits’

Now this is a powerful message #SupportJuniorDoctors I had no idea it was this bad. Imagine pay for your own profession decreasing in real terms as much as this!

Here’s my payslip as a first year doctor in 2005, next to a first year doctor colleague’s in 2023. 18 years later, their take home salary is less than mine was. I lived for free in hospital accommodation and had a fraction of their student loan.
