Why have the Faithfuls failed to notice that those last to breakfast are usually the ones close to being killed by the Traitors? #Traitors

Excellent read - enjoyed this! 🍦
“ For decades food companies have employed scientists to work out how to keep you eating without stopping long enough to remember you have a body... …By contrast, the selling point of Magnum’s new ice-creams seems to be they will keep you laser-focused on your own body.” A magnificent piece on ice cream in today’s @guardian by @kitty__drake - one of the best food articles I’ve read. theguardian.com/food/ng-inte…

Oh boy, all the jumps over 4.80m in group B in the decathlon are invalid because they forgot to actually lift the bar to 4.80, so all attempts were actually over 4.70. Everyone has to jump 4.80 again.

Signed up to HBO max to watch the Commonwealth Games and had to complete three of these silly little quizzes to create my account. Felt like a time warp back to a 90s computer game!

Japanese football fans have been praised online after staying behind to clean up Wembley Stadium following their team’s 1–0 victory over England. After the historic win, Japanese supporters remained in the stands to tidy the stadium before leaving.

Hat tip for the transparency from @OctopusEnergy. I’ve been a happy customer for approx. 8 years; although I’ve only won once (£1) on the wheel of fortune despite playing diligently each month
Sadly i can’t promise that right now- basically when you take a fix we go the market and buy a year’s worth of energy for you at current prices. With the volatility at the moment we need to be sure you’ll be there for the duration. I’m Sorry and we’ll change this as soon as we can

Listening to Ed Davey on @IainDale’s show on @LBC. His opening remark was that he was catching up on the day’s news because he’s been at exhibition his wife bought him tickets for 🤦🏼‍♀️

The lumping together of size categories on Vinted is nuts. No woman is going to casually buy something which could be one of two sizes! Unless the seller happens to note the actual size in the item description or include a photo of the label, it’s a guessing game…

My vote is on Alan Carr @chattyman to take over as host of #StrictlyComeDancing. He’d be a hoot!

Yesterday when collecting a parcel in @waitrose Islington the shop assistant gave me a bunch of roses to thank me for waiting. Was a lovely gesture (and the wait wasn’t even very long!)…

I’m locked out of my @Instagram account @newforestponypics because I don’t look like a pony. Five years ago I created this account for fun, but last month my iPhone died and I lost access to the Duo Mobile password and back-up code for two factor authentication 🧵 1/4.

In raising this to Instagram they have told me to keep trying as for now this is the only option available to me…Any ideas of how to get through this treacle or am I forever doomed because I don’t look like a pony 🧵 4/4.

Here’s the clanger… they keep telling me to upload a video selfie to prove my identity. Except my account is full of ponies and donkeys so unsurprisingly my video selfie keeps failing 🧵 3/4.

I know my Instagram password & the email address for the account is my personal one so all OK there with the verification steps…but I can’t get through the Duo Mobile request for a code. I have spent a few hours speaking to and chatting with Instagram support to no avail 🧵 2/4.
