My level of incompetence increases daily

I love a good moan.
Google, you are taking liberties with your liberty taking.
First you forced Google Messages upon us losing all my sms texts in a customised tab.
Now you are letting unsolicited messages through while switching which Google account is my primary inbox.

Pack it in.

My same day Amazon delivery of the 21st November has still not arrived. Enough's enough.
Attempts to cancel the order as undelivered require you to return the items! WTF?
I reordered, same day delivery and that took 2 days. :(

Spoke with their customer services who 'cancelled' and have refunded.

RIP Brian Hayes.
Listened to his phone-ins from back in the mid 70s on Capital Radio and LBC during the birth of commercial radio. The days when I couldn't afford a TV.

Happy birthday to Clare Torry.

I love arguing with Google's AI. It's factually wrong so often. A combination of bad plagiarism and hallucination.

So, my Amazon same day delivery from Sunday rumbles on and It has still not been delivered to a local locker.
Had to order items again this morning to secure a Black Friday deal price with same day delivery - to home this time!

Beware Amazon's same day delivery promise.
I ordered 2 items on Sunday (23rd) due by 22:00
"We've encountered an issue but are trying to complete the delivery."
"We couldn't get access to the locker"
"We'll try again the next day."
Monday they tried again. And failed.
Today "we're running late...."

Has anyone ever seen Bob Mortimer actually strike?

What are the New England Patriots wearing?
Have they borrowed some college team's kit?

It's that time of year again.

The fridge is too cold for this tipple and the house is too warm.

Just within reach from the back door.

Nigel Slater and Keith Emerson
You never see them in the same room at the same time.

(notwithstanding Keith now sadly not with us)

Nice to hear Amazon have had the arrangement of the Beatles song re-recorded. All for the sake of one wandering note.

We need a new TV that doesn't have local dimming or that it can be disabled.

@clivebull.bsky.social Hi.
A bit late but some Americanisms have vexed me. - the creation of words by adding 'er' to existing words.
1. Birther
2. Staffer

1. Had me baffled and took me weeks to suss out its meaning from context.
Thankfully we don't appear to have adopted this weird practice.
