More baby formula products recalled over toxin fears www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

😢

Thanks to Kat for posting this. A wonderful thing from a wonderful performer.

Made the mistake of ordering M&S Lemon Curd Hot Cross buns 🤢 Regular ones, however, 😋

Unpopular view, but I like that Pip and Stella are getting married. I just hope Stella is prepared to ge permanently with a child she seems not to like. #TheArchers

I listened to my second ever #TheArchers ‘official’ podcast (Jan 9th). I listened because Elly Griffiths was on and I have to admit that I really enjoyed it. I may give it another go…

The advice in this article misses a step, imo. If your boss really is as bad as this, the very first thing to do is collect your evidence. Then, if tackling it makes things worse/loses you your job, you have supporting evidence for tribunal, if you need it.

Damn, I forgot about the cricket and it seems we’ve had an entertaining batting day! 🏏

I was just baking a sponge. It used four eggs. Egg 1 a double yolk. Egg 2 a double yolk. I cracked both straight into the mix 😱 What to do? AI no help. I decided to still use four but only the white of the fourth. Cracked egg 3 into jug - single. Separated white from fourth - another double. 🤷‍♀️🥴

Sitting in the car waiting for an appointment I’d remembered just in time and am now somehow early for. Sigh.

I had a text from the GP at 8am to confirm I’d been referred for xray. Walk-in service at a CDC or local hospital. Three hours later, it is done. Well done, #NHS

What will be the significance of the floodlighting that was mentioned at least twice this evening? 🤔 #TheArchees

We know, then, that Fallon deleted the CCTV because she saw Harrison leave. Did she try to follow him, but found George and rang 999? Then ran back to the pub? Did Jazzer see Fallon running away from the area? Still so many details missing. #TheArchers

@brendaselwyn.bsky.social I’d forgotten about it until just now, but do we know how Brookfield inheritance lines are affected, if at all, by the interest Kenton et al have in the land? #TheArchers I vaguely recall past discussion but not the outcome…

I’m struggling to work out why Pip isn’t ready, or why Josh’s hens preclude him from taking on more of Brookfield when his parents die or retire. Are they even planning retirement here, or just the death and taxes issue? I’m very lacking in detail. #TheArchers

Hey #buyastrangerabook day fans! I have another offer to tell you about. @lacrapule.bsky.social has sent me a tenner to buy someone the book of their choice. So, if there's a paperback that you've been desperate to get hold of, this may be your chance. Get in touch! UK only

Brian did quite well, all things considered. I’m not sure that would have happened without Susan’s timely words. I enjoyed Kate’s use of the Freddie thing - that will probably hit home when George thinks about it. Maybe. Ruairi needs to sit in a corner and think about what he did. #TheArchers

Ooh, a lot to unpack in that episode about harm, victims, and re-victimisation. Unless George has eg Alan facilitating this meeting (or Alice can find a very stiff resolve), I doubt it can go well enough for lasting benefit, but we shall see. #TheArchers

So George was trying to get a plumber while Akram was kinda being offered the work to which George would be well suited. Nice, SWs… #TheArchers

Awful photo as there’s no way I’m going outside, but this is just one of a number of gorgeous ice patterns on our patio stones. Note to self: buy rock salt 😱

Oh no! Bluesky really buggy again, it seems!

#TheArchers is the theme of a special @BBCBargainHunt today. I talk through some fascinating memorabilia, there’s a look behind the studio doors - and class warfare in the auction head-to-head. Today (9 Jan) BBC1 at 12.15, and then on iPlayer www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

We have missed out on Linda being exacting-to-the-point-of-obnoxious over the panto, so now we have to have Jazzer being so with the Highland Games? Sigh. #TheArchers

This is an incredibly brilliant thing. Whoever had the foresight to keep the samples, whoever had the idea of using them in this way, bravo. Good luck with the research, scientists!

The govt shouldn’t have signed the lease, knowing about the issue. But neither should the Duchy have offered it, imo. I didn’t have the Duchy down as a grasping landowner that’s costing the public £££, so feel a bit narked by this. Why not just agree to end the lease?

Waiting for prescription. Woman is coughing into the hole in the glass screen. Has hand over mouth but even so…

I’ve had to venture out for a GP appointment. Slightly nervous of the ice, but I’m trying not to let my legs know that…

URGENT NEWS. Sky to hike mobile prices for existing customers mid-contract. Those in contract have 30 days in which they can ditch it penalty free.... Full info & help in... www.moneysavingexpert.com/news/2026/01...

This story sums up why I tend to bang on about restorative approaches. If this process had been worked through with Alice (and some others affected but maybe not Mick) it could have been far more effective at putting George on a better path. #TheArchers

Nestle issues global recall of some baby formula products over toxin fears

New graphics from Target Ovarian Cancer just dropped. I’m really keen to spread the word about symptoms, so please share either my post or the graphic. Other common symptoms include fatigue & changes in bowel habits, it can seem like IBS, and there’s no routine screening.

@anniebannister.bsky.social How is Tom? All sorted?

Cricket 🏏

This is supporting my weird theory that Fallon saw Harrison leave, tried to follow, found George, called the police. She thinks H did it, so wiped his angry flounce-out from the cctv. I don’t think H did it but still have no clue who did. #TheArchers

@borsetshireblue.bsky.social How is your nose doing?

What was all that about Clive being in trouble and stalking Susan? What will his camera have caught? #TheArchers

What bit of bother is Clive in now? #TheArchers

I had Brian’s health crisis in my bingo card 😉 #TheArchers

This detective knows rather more detail about the past than she’s had time to gather. #TheArchers

This is heartbreaking. #TheArchers

Someone will gear Heorges phone ringing… #TheArchers

Jazzer no alibi then #TheArchers

Harrison not accounted for then #TheArchers

Brian being pale doesn’t mean much #TheArchers

Ooh, Fallon has cut herself… #TheArchers

Well done, Eva #TheArchers

We know now, then, that it was definitely George who was the hit, not the hitter. And an ambulance was clearly called (another square on my bingo card!). #TheArchers

David and Ruth just on the telly but a complete damp squib - everyone must have clearly been told to give nothing away! #TheArchers

I need to put my phone away and get ready to go out so I’ll just wish all #TheArchers lovelies a happy new year and all the very best for 2026. 🥂
