2/2 : @OVOEnergy 4. Left us without electric/gas for a whole day. 5. Kept me on hold, total of 5 hrs. 6. Continued charging £300 per mnth for the accnt they mistakenly closed. 7. Opened new accnt with wrong address. I',m currently on hold. Avoid, avoid, avoid
1/2: In the last week @OVOEnergy has: 1. Emailed to thank me for letting them know I will be moving house (I am not). 2. Responded to my email in which I told them I am not moving house – not to worry, they understood. 3. Cancelled and closed our account regardless. cont'd
To everyone and anyone seeing this, avoid @OVOEnergy at all costs (even if it means paying more to go with another supplier). Literally the most disorganised company known to man. Avoid, avoid, avoid.
#Travel friends, #Spain lovers... I need your help! I'd like to stay in #malaga for a week or so with my wife and 6-month-old baby (this June). Where should we stay? Any tips? Gracias! #Spaintravel #visitspain #malaga #costadelsol

Are editors more likely to accept a pitch with a strong news hook? Topical stories can give editors a better reason to accept, says @patriddell. But generally, the story idea should be compelling — particularly if you're just starting out as a travel writer #NGTMasterclasses

So much photography talk is about gear - I've never been into that stuff. What moves me are the pictures and the things that inspire their creation. Reading images like words. The history behind the practice and the people who do the work. Anybody here into THIS stuff?

I sometimes say "I learned to cook in the 90s while living in Italy." Sounds good – and it's true. But it was mainly from working through a Delia Smith cookbook. In fact, my (well-fed) international flatmates even had this apron made for me, which I still wear. Happy 80th, Delia!
