Do I know anyone that's handled the transition from carbamazepine to lamotrigine to treat their or anyone else's focal epilepsy? Would love to pick your brains or gain any guidance you might have?

Surprisingly shenanigans by my local @enterprisecares today. Used them for a decade or more - always excellent. Returned a van earlier than expected, then found the branch had filled out their feedback form in my name. That’s just crappy service, peeps

Absolutely loving @ChrisGPackham and Earth. Aside all the obvious questions, my big one is when is the score coming out on vinyl - belting work!

It'd be great to see our local town councillor (@CllrWendyDalton ) give as much of a shit about the drug dealers in constant operation and traffic in a restricted access road as they seemingly do about a neighbour's extension and brick wall.

Is it possible to have an court injunction on Farage referring to the british population as "we" - because the vast majority of us want nothing to do with the attention seeking narcissist...

Visited the Anchor Lane Recycling centre run by @WolvesCouncil this morning. Operatives mocking customer’s South Asian accent as he left. Complaint submitted. Racism has no place. Cc @ExpressandStar @WMPolice

Evening all, personal post... My daughter is in her 2nd year of a degree in 3D Animation and Computer Games Design. Looking for a summer internship, Leeds or London. Any help appreciated!

Plans once time machines become a thing. Kill Hitler (obvs), then locate exact moment swimming in the sea became “wild swimming™” and distract the bell-end responsible… and by “distract” I mean “also murder”.

You know the old adage “measure twice cut once”? I’d add “and make sure you transpose your markups to the other end when fitting bath panels”. Rather than precisely cutting off the wrong fucking end.

Young Ukrainian mom using a translator app in the chemist and the staff are struggling to help her understand that the baby’s meds are free. Had to intervene to get them to use “no charge” rather than “free” because it won’t translate…

Anyone of 80s youth vintage remember “getting a bennying” or “got bennyed”, meaning getting told off or bollocked harshly, usually by a parent or other adult?

Guitars. Always guitars. Unplugged electric, no strap, crappy chording. Always guitars.
