Arrrgghh!
Can I be the only one who has no real (precise) idea of what these irritatingly vague 'generation something' labels actually mean?
What's wrong, FFS, with simply saying 'people in their 20s, 30s, 50s, etc?

Not a problem according to Trump. He just literally said, with Starmer sat next to him, that inflation in the US was down to nothing now.

I'm shocked to hear Mr Trump saying something untrue.

TripAdvisor is really not reading the room with this email I received today.
My first reaction was
'LOL, you must be joking!
When the current WH administration reads social media on phones, and sends foreign nationals to detention in third party countries without due process?

Pretty sure this is an AI assisted scam.
Disappointing to find it on YouTube, impersonating both the BBC and Martin Lewis.

I'm going to have to search the web for Tefal Home Appliances Ltd to seek their response to the problem with our Easy Fry Grill and Steam air-fryer.
The drawer front fell off!
It was only held on by four self tapping screws that were screwed into plastic!
Not impressed. #Tefal

Yesterday, UK TV showed the film "The Darkest Hour", which is about how Churchill reacted when other politicians were telling him he should 'sue for peace' with Hitler.
In the film, Churchill (who BTW went to the WH in a boiler suit) quotes this:

Bitter sweet to see Christmas dinner cooking from sunshine power. Our #PV is cooking roast, sprouts and potatoes simmering and air-fryer on. All powered from renewables.
