I am SICK of buses man. No trains from Stansted to London today, and I arrived at the Flibco stand literally 3 people too late to fit on

Between no trains on the Rimini-Ravenna line and a massive Ryanair conference selling out all the ideal hotels last night, turns out I picked possibly one of the worst weeks of Spooky Season to visit Mirabilandia

Throwback to my consulting days when I was consistently throwing back a Coke Zero shortly after arriving on client site (8am). Definitely got some judgment from my team for that one

Theme park mutuals: how unbearable is Mirabilandia without Fastpass? Going on a Saturday in mid-October, planning on getting the base level of Fastpass for a smooth cred-run but debating if it's necessary to splurge for unlimited

Last fiscal year I paid in over £1750 to my student loan via automatic repayments. My net balance still increased by over £500 due to the insane interest charged in Plan 2. If inflation hots up again due to the Iran war, I'll probably still be paying this loan off in my 50s.

I think what frustrates me most is that I did everything that aspirational kids in my generation were told to: I worked hard to get into Oxford, I did a credible STEM subject, and worked my ass off for a First. But now I'm working and barely pay off the interest on that loan

"Happy Fright Nights!" except there are no direct trains from London to Staines on any weekend in October

Happy Q4 all 🥳🎉 To quote an unnamed member of my C-suite - "god, it's ceaseless, isn't it?"

RIP to last coaster to truly scare me, all the way back in 2015. Luckily Eejanaika and especially Dinoconda remain, and are much better rides.

Six Flags Magic Mountain has announced the closure of X2. Considering everything that’s happened, this is not much of a surprise. While I will of course miss the attraction, ultimately I think this was the right move.

To any mutuals attending IAAPA who have ended up on a night out in Canary Wharf due it being near the Excel: my condolences, you will all be very bored and very broke by the time you leave

Did you even land at Heathrow if they didn't have you waiting around in the tarmac and/or taxiing for about 30 mins

Requesting leave is so degrading. I feel like a Victorian pauper coming cap in hand, asking for the time off I am both legally and contractually allowed

Very disappointed I did not get to use the line "Kirkin' hard or hardly Kirkin'?" on anyone today
