My local @OpticalExpress has closed & I was told to go to the Harley St branch. 'Will this be free?' (I'm old enough to qualify for free eye tests.) 'Yes, no charge.' I turned up: 'We only do private work here & have to charge you.' Should've gone to @Specsavers. Now I will. 😤

Right. That's it. Enough. Elon Musk can fuck off. Donald Trump can fuck off. I'm fucking off to Bluesky. 👋

This is a dark, dark day for people around the globe. The world’s largest economy and most powerful military will be led by a dangerous, destructive demagogue.

“ When a Clown moves into the Palace, he doesn’t become a King, The Palace becomes a Circus” is a Turkish proverb which is worth heeding in the coming days.

Fellow writers, do we all do this? Very boring, time-consuming but valuable exercise in the final polish. So much rolling of eyes! 🙄 #amwriting #amwritingfiction #writerscommunity #amquerying #WritingCommunity #writingtips

Oh yes, let's get rid of all that human rights stuff! Mad Lizzie Truss still gobbing on - does anyone listen or give a fuck what she thinks about anything? She's like an eight year old with a sugar rush. Time for a lie down dear. #trussterfuck #politics #tory #bonkers @trussliz

Frankly, I think no armrests is the least of the issues here. How about the view? For £53! No thank you ⁦@rbo_org⁩ #ROH #ripoff #havingalaugh #royaloperahouse

If Keir Starmer's Labour Government can achieve all of this in just two months, I'm looking forward to the next 4-5 years:

King Charles inherited £650m tax free, gets £125m a year tax free from the tax payer and has an estate worth £22bn that’s never taxed. But he still needed a 45% pay rise. Like if he needs a pay cut. RT if you want the Monarchy gone. #NotmyKing #AbolishTheMonarchy
