Hi @Delta in April you delayed our holiday by 24 hours and lost our suitcases. I sent you a complaint over a month ago and have still heard nothing back - how much longer will I have to wait? I've contacted your messaging service at least five times since then and got nowhere.
Please forgive the embarrassing moody photo. The idea of this piece was to describe the unusual - to put it mildly - legal process we've experienced over the past few months. Secret evidence, MI5, and lawyers you're banned from talking with bbc.com/news/uk-615282…

🚨Personal news klaxon🚨 Thrilled to say I’ve joined @TheWorlds50Best Restaurants as Senior Content Editor. So pleased to be back in the world of hospitality and very excited to see everyone in Vegas in a few weeks for the 2024 ranking and awards 🙌.
Clear summary by Ben. Our writeup, by @Eleanor_Lawrie, here: bbc.co.uk/news/uk-688968…
🚨📈 Clear trend in the 2023 crime stats is that shoplifting and personal theft really is on the up: 👜 Personal theft: 1256k, +18% 🛒 Shoplifting: 430k, +37% The shoplifting figure is 50k more than the previous record.
There are five people reading actual books in this section of my Bakerloo Line carriage and my faith in humanity has been restored. The fact that I’m commenting on this on social media is not ironic in the slightest.
How lovely to have a cover story in Grazia today. Thanks @GeorgiaAspinall for the commission!
📱Some personal news: I am now Assistant Editor for weekends @BBCNews. The new role is part of an investment in digital output that aims to boost the BBC’s journalism around the clock and over 7 days. I can’t wait to help lead the expansion across weekends

Thanks @British_Airways who looked after yesterday. As I dashed to LHR to try to get to my dad b4 he died the call centre guy was great sorting tickets. Then at LHR when I found out it was too late a stewardess just came & gave me a hug. On the flight to Rome the team were great.
Had dinner at Cinghiale Bianco at the recommendation of a friend - the most welcoming, delicious local restaurant 🫶🏻 We didn’t book but they snuck us through the kitchen to the back area regardless. Not surprised it is Stanley Tucci’s go-to!! An absolute must-try.

Very sad news. David English was an absolute legend. There was no higher praise than when he said you were starting to ‘think like a journalist’. I still think about his hatred of the word ‘that’ whenever it sneaks into my copy. A great teacher and lovely man.
Very sorry to hear @CardiffJomec legend, David English, has died. David worked at the school for 35 years. He's thought to have trained more than 1,000 journalists. This article celebrated his retirement in 2015. #cardifftrained theguardian.com/media-network/…
Just heard my former @CardiffJomec colleague David English has died. I worked with him from 2006 to his retirement, a man who could wield a red pen and a joke with aplomb. He had a major influence on those who studied with him. He will be missed. theguardian.com/media-network/…
Coming up now on BBC1.
NEW: A poor culture and a lack of staff has contributed to the deaths of babies at an NHS trust. An investigation by @BBCPanorama found that whistle-blowers @gloshospitals weren't listened to after raising concerns over 2 midwives.
