Since the name change I have thought
"This is an x-account Bereft of life, it rests in peace, it's shuffled off this mortal coil, rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. It is an ex-account"
I will be elsewhere from now on.

Since I was being bolshy about customer service, for balance... @UKVolkswagen one of your people went really above & beyond for me on Friday: just wouldn't give up if he could make the customer (me) 100% happy.

Wanted to change tariff with @ScottishPower but a key system couldn't see smartmeter readings their others saw.
In trying, I met a 7 day turn round on email; a callback that never came, a glacial web-chat, & dreadful IVR & this.
I concurred & switched to @OctopusEnergy

Only the very foolish say "See how the other lot screwed up - we'd never screw up".
The wise know understand say "There but for the grace of the God go any of us".
This will make people will laugh twice as hard when it's you.

Trump claims he was saved by divine intervention, but I don't buy it.
If God was going to prove his existence, he'd probably wait for the hottest, sunniest day of the year and then break everyone's computer so they had to spend the day in the garden.

It's coming home... One of the things I remember from my time working for @MercedesAMGF1 was seeing the Trophies, and this trophy is special.
We were asked to NOT touch it, so I couldn't photograph @LewisHamilton's name on it... Congratulations Lewis

We know UK voting system is weird. Lib dems (who always said so) increased their share by 0.6% & got 8x the seats (greater % of seats than votes for once). SNP lost 1/3 of share & 80% seats. Labour get a landslide with 1.6% share increase vs their previous disaster.

#ElectionResults Brexit, for Corbyn vs Johnson & yesterday been more electorate saying F*** Off, than voting for things the SNP got a huge F*** off, ex Tories voting Reform as a F*** off were a huge cause of the landslide.

Good and bad stuff happens mostly in-spite of governments, not because of them. We've appointed a new scapegoat to blame when we don't get more than we pay for.

A little bonus from my current contact, the client had a lunch time lecture by the brilliant @FryRsquared that I got to watch. Some stuff I knew shown in a way to make me go "I never thought of that". A superb explainer of stuff.

Every time I watch @skysportsf1 and see the adverts for @Workday I think "Smug and complacent", "Finance and HR" . I'd love to see that stats for how the "Departments for treating people as things" are seen Workday adopters vs a control group.

Twitter ads are bad. But instagram ads are worse, and weird. What algorithm selected this for me?
MI5, if you're reading I'm flattered to be selected for the ad, but no thanks.

The way these two labels of on Bing maps merged into one made me smile.

New gig, dealing with idiot 3rd party company who want to verify everything on my CV. "Prove your Microsoft certification status!"
OK: I have a 4 digit MCP number & passed exam 001 30 years ago last weekend (I missed the anniversary).

Kafkaesque experience trying to cancel the account for the 3G dongle I had with @Vodafoneuk. On line needs a text which they can't send. So I cancelled the DD. Today I get a Debt letter. Call the number on it "we can't put you through to anyone" But you're a phone company!

And a couple more bits of #midjourneyart .
There was a @bbcdoctorwho episode where Vincent Van Gogh met the Doctor... Ok then #midjourney what would happen if the Daleks met Claude Monet?

Some other #midjourney posters. It does weird stuff with the titles. These were Brighton, Stonehenge and Tenby.

One of the things I've found @midjourney does pretty well is posters. Can't quite get the right feel for ones for #BritishGP though. Still I like these.
