How is it possible that this one has applied for uni, got her first job and has her driving theory test all in the one week?

@aerlingus1.bsky.social your customer service is appalling. You cancelled my flight and told me I could fly to another airport and you would take me on to my destination. I am at the airport and you have organised nothing. Told me you would have sorted it. You haven’t. Beyond annoyed dx

Sitting at the airport in really good time to be told by @aerlingus1.bsky.social our flight has been cancelled. No alternative and no information. Poor show, poor show!

Holiday breakfasts are made of this. #scranandroadie

The people at Conde Nast have really the worst customer service, ever! Bought the youngest a @vougemagazine.bsky.social subscription for Christmas and so far she’s had only Jan, Feb and March issues. April, May and June have never appeared! Cannot get an answer from them. Poor show, poor show.

Birthday lunch for the handsome hubs. Cail Bruich delivered on all aspects. #glasgowfood #glasgow #glasgowfoodie #glasgowlife #foodie #glasgowrestaurant #glasgowfoodies #food #glasgowwestend #scottishfood #scotland #ilovegla #glasgowcity #visitglasgow #visitscotland #peoplemakeglasgow

Happy birthday to my girl. Melting candle cake. Bloody Pinterest! @dobbolondon.bsky.social

I’ve just cleaned up several bags of rubbish that some of my neighbours have just discarded. Even though they all have their own bins and there are recycling bins to hand. I need to calm down and wash my hands with bleach! There is no excuse to not tidying up after yourself!

Friday off work, a play around the kitchen.Camembert that needed attention so baked it and poured hot honey over it. Served with grilled chicken in hot sauce and ranch. Bacon wrapped roast potatoes with harissa mayo. Jerk pork bites and apple coleslaw. Roast cauliflower with chilli and hummus.
