Hello all! Look what the post brought all the way from the UK to the US, so we can celebrate one of our favorite TV shows through the magic of novelty talking plushies. Thank you Robert Popper for some of our favorite TV characters (after Dr Alan Statham).

I love(d) Sonos - but an errant update by a family member has reminded me of the S1 S2 BS (and rendered most of the system unusable until I reset every single device). I’m done, time to run cables and find an alternative. If you pitch your stall on usability, tread carefully.

Crushed by the cancellation of Goodwood FOS yesterday. Doubly so when waking up to THE SAME WEATHER this morning. Flew in from the US after last going 15 years ago. Not exactly the memories I was hoping to create. #GoodwoodFoS

Fellow nerds, I'm happy to say that I'll be GIVING AWAY this rather pretty MSI Stealth GS66 laptop!!! To enter you'll need to retweet this + follow myself and MSI UK Winner will be announced live on stream this Wednesday, so make sure to drop by :) #ad

Hey americanair on my third attempt to get out of HSV due to your delays. Gate agent is being super kind to latecomers, now 35 mins late pushing. Pls have your DCA agents be so kind to me because I’m likely missing my connection and not getting home, again.

If you were Lando, would you give the place back?

Extremely disappointed with the racing spirit of McLaren Mastercard Formula 1 Team in Hungary - this isn't racing, Lando Norris pasted Oscar Piastri fair and square. Even with constant whining to slow down, and fake tire management messages on the radio every sector he couldn't close on Lando. Dumb.

One of the most subdued first time winner's radio I've ever heard. Utterly horrible race management from McLaren once again, denying the Australian the pure and unbridled jubilation he should have felt.

You have to lay a thousand tiny bets for even one to pay off. Lay many.

Oh dear British Airways - just when I’m forgetting one bad experience, you pop up with another shocker. Demanding another $1000 a couple of hours before a flight is a new one. And a new low. This whole family is done with BA after the last two days. Suggestions?

“Snakes am sneaky danger noodles.” Lol ChatGPT moment.

Hey americanair tried 4x to upgrade my flight with the “available upgrade”, each time payment taken then it errors. Gate agent equally baffled. I get it though, you really want me to get the message and spend my money with United Airlines

Heads up to frequent travelers, avoid routes where Alaska Airlines is the carrier if you book through a partner. They will downgrade your boarding post check in, they will take your money for a seat upgrade and they will not honor it. “System says no”. Disappointing.

Losing the will to live here in Buffalo SHAKE SHACK …. 28 minutes and counting. Most confusing as there was no line when we ordered.

“My five year old granddaughter sits on her own all the time, so no.” - says the americanair gate agent here in ORD when asked if we can move our youngest to a seat next to one of us after getting rescheduled and reassigned due to weather. #CustomerServiceFail
