🔴 WE ARE CHAMPIONS! 🏆

That final scene wasn't scripted, and they only did one take as nobody could do another. The poppies were faded in from a BBC archive.

Finally, @premierinn I asked what would customer service girl do in my shoes? She said that she wasn’t in my shoes and the case was closed, and I will not be getting my money back. We’ll see about that… She needs to look up Customer Service and Guest Relations in a dictionary

Jesus! @premierinn ALWAYS been treated great by the hotel staff. 1 of UK’s great brands. BUT I have just been charged £400 for a booking I never received a confirmation for AND spent 2 hours trying to cancel. Small claims here we go. Grrr. Customer service SO rude..

Good to see a new job announcement we can all get behind with the news @nickyburston is to be the new chief executive of the @drinks_trust particularly as she has been a key part of the team for a number of years. Her wine industry & charity experience is good news for us all

This NOT worth £3000 return. Appauling. Exhausted with not enough room to sleep, and dehydrated. @cathaypacific what’s the next leg going to be like? #CX256 Wish I could swap for an aisle seat at least…

…too. I had a massive plate of unseasoned polenta and dry chicken. Just been told off for ordering 2 drinks at once. I am 2 hours into a back breaking 12 hour leg to Hong Kong @cathaypacific God I have 3 more legs of this journey. Help me. BA economy is far more comfortable.

…Seat is so short that the headrest is in my BACK with no head support at all. And the remote doesn’t work, despite mentioning it several times, it is still stuck in the seat two hours into the flight. It’s stiflingly hot too. @cathaypacific were supposed to have superior food..

Right. The lovely people from Wines of Victoria sent me premium economy to Oz as they know I’m quite a unit. Word to the wise.the prem economy seat on @cathaypacific A350-900 is so small and short that I can’t sit straight and seat so shallow, I can’t open the table on my lap…

Brilliance at work.

It looks like it’s all over to Xanthe’s for an election night snack. 😂

Hilarious. Über officially useless. Can see them swarming all over the map, but apparently no Ubers have been available for 35 minutes. On regent street at 11.30. 🤣🤣🤣

It was a complete honour to have Cape Wine Master, Winnie Bowman showing guests our fantastic line-up of South African brandies at our Veritas tasting. Thank you!

Patrick and his team delivered an outstanding menu and Andrew delivering emotional messages about the Saffer wine industry not just about Iona, at the same time presenting wines that rival any burgundy producer. @IonaWines @KuduRestaurant
