Dangerously bad service from @OctopusEnergy - installed a smart meter in our home. After they left we heard a sizzling noise as one of the contacts was arcing. Called customer service. Its apparantly "not an emergency". We have to get an electrician out to say it was their fault.
The infuriating thing is that @OctopusEnergy won't take responsibility for their own work. it is up to the customer to find another electrician, pay their callout just so they write a report to send back to @OctopusEnergy to come and fix their own error.
Independent electrician came out. The installers wired our aircon into the 5th terminal which is meant for special tarriffs, which doesn't make sense for aircon. The arcing was caused by a wire that was a bit too short so the bend radius was too small - cut a cable tie to release
From "The Rob Roy on the Baltic - a canoe cruise" written by John Macgregor in 1872. Inequality between rich and poor in England. Not much has changed, I fear.

Incredible. Ireland has decided to fast-track Ukrainian teachers through the registration process to teach in Irish schools, so that the schools are prepared to meet the needs of Ukrainian children. irishtimes.com/news/educatio…

Now that Neutral Switzerland has sanctioned ten times more Russian oligarchs and companies than Tory Britain, whose side is Tory Britain on?

The yachts of oligarchs have been seized in France and Germany.
London is paved with the bloody gold of Russian billionaires close to Putin's regime. When will Johnson act? #StandWithUkraine️

Not a great day to go to @Tate Modern. The queue to get in goes back to the Millennium Bridge. Going to miss my time slot.

My father died the day before yesterday. He was 85 years old with heart problems and dementia. He ran a bath for himself, got in, and must have just drifted off because mum found him there looking peaceful. Not a bad way to go really. We'll miss him terribly.

We’ve hit number 1! Thank you to everyone showing so much love for NHS staff tonight. We’ve knocked the protest hashtags off the trending list.
NHS staff really needed this tidal wave of support today. Thank you, truly, from the bottom of our hearts 💙
