That time of the year again when I have to update my daughters bus pass. Putting the pass on the Swift card is always a challenge and now with the new app just completely broken! I now have to drive to Erdington to activate it. Thank you @TransportForWM for not testing your app.

I just took part in the #BigPlasticCount, UK’s biggest investigation into household plastic waste. Here’s what I found really happens to my plastic waste:
♻️13% recycled
🌍19% sent abroad
🔥44% burnt
⛰️24% sent to landfill
This is shocking, right?! @Jochurchill_MP @pow_rebecca

So, I’m trialing Apple News , why does @Apple think it’s acceptable to show ads in the app when I’m paying for a monthly subscription? When the trial ends I don’t think I’ll bother with it.

Also, a fantastic and emotional performance from the Birmingham Schools Symphony Orchestra. So good to see such great talent playing again live.

Helping Jacob on litter picking in the park yesterday. Two bags, one water storage tank and @BTGroup letterbox cleared of beer bottles and poo bags. 🙈 He did an awesome job and we will be back next week. #suttoncoldfield #litterpicking

Let’s hope the government listens rather than just putting forward stupid minor gestures like £5k off a heat pump which will be useless if the house isn’t properly insulated! #sustainability @10DowningStreet bbc.co.uk/news/science-envir…

I do wonder how non Tesla owners charge their cars when not at home. I just tried at a @Pod_Point charger in Eastbourne. About 14 chargers pretty much all out of order. The one I found didn’t work either! I love @Tesla but not the non Tesla charging network.

From this to this. Christmas Smile has this week given out gifts to 1850 children and adults which is around 10,000 gifts wrapped.
Our Telford community is amazing. Thank you to each and every one of you who donated gifts or your time to this year’s project 🎁👏🏼🎁
