@voitechnology one of your bikes seems to have gone rogue in the centre of Southampton Common just north of the boating lake. what3words if you can't find it! Is the common geofenced as no go or slow @SouthamptonCC? ///prop.when.upon

Still here. Although bigger issues on the common, guess I will follow up elsewhere.

A team of economists from LSE (well almost) stumbling through the Lorenz curve & Gini coefficient bonus questions. They got there in the end, overruling the skipper in the process. #UniversityChallenge

And now a question about ceteris paribus - making it pretty straightforward for those of an economic persuasion. #UniversityChallenge

Always reminded #OnThisDay of @WelshRugbyUnion @NewportRFC star Charlie Pritchard. MoM v @AllBlacks in 1905, he died of wounds after a trench raid in 1916. “He did his bit” @YLolfa @wrugbymuseum @Rugbyforheroes @ICSHC #blackandambers #rugby #ww1

7.30pm & coming out of the surf at Newgale beach, Pembrokeshire, when #2 gets stung by a pesky weever fish. Fortunately with a @Jetboil in the car, hot water was on hand to treat the sting & all is good! Awesome addition to the camping kit... might need to upgrade next season!

For economists, replace IEU with utility & all is good for some modelling!

It has been over a week now @McDonaldsUK for the Black Cat (Southampton) restaurant to respond to the fact they served chicken to my vegetarian daughter. Inexcusable behaviour. I presume they think we will go quietly but the photographs make it clear what happened.

@McDonaldsUK staggered at lack of response. I've got one more photo that shows what caused the issue but to serve chicken disguised as the spicy veggie one is truly dreadful.

Think restaurant has lost direction by expanding the delivery service - the dedicated door for this gives suggestion focus not really on customer in front of you as does time for service. Guessing this rating, from pre-renovation needs a review?
