Had a lot of Nectar points stolen the other day. They froze account, are "investigating" and have sent me another card. That hasn't arrived yet. So right now, to shop at Sainsbury's I have to spend a lot more than normal (can't use Nectar Price!). That doesn't seem right at all

Railcard discounts to reduce. Not that I have a national railcard any more (not entitled!) but not exactly a positive step. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I think that has genuinely been the worst day of travel I’ve had in my *life*. Not a single form of public transport that I’ve tried or have travelled on has operated properly.

I'm on a train heading up to Derby for The Greatest Gathering tomorrow. I'm doing a thing at midday. Then I'll just be wandering aimlessly around for the rest of the day I expect.

We've just launched RTT+, our new subscription service that unlocks ad-free viewing and more! Just £25 a year. We've also added extended data history (3 months, 6 months by January 2026) - helpful if you want to lookup quite how late that train was way back!

What a disasterclass in comms. Octopus Energy: (in summary) we're going to cap to 6 hours charge per night (and not tell you when in email) Also Octopus, apparently, when controlling a charger: we're going to throttle the charge rate Great way to ruin your reputation.
