Another round of skills tests set by the very watchable 2018 finalist Matthew Ryle. These returnees from previous years always have something nice to say to the #masterchefuk contestants, having been through the challenges themselves and being glad that they are setting rather than doing this time

The PIS screen is interesting. Having destination at the top and the journey working up the page from origin at the bottom seems an unusual thing to do. Having said that, you can get so much more info on a big screen unlike our scrolling dots

Have you got Achilles one of those cat smell diffuser thingies? We got one when our cat was getting stressed. You can find them online under the feliway brand

Simple, honest mobile
SMARTY is a new SIM-only mobile network thatβs built to be fair, transparent and smart.
If it is just mobile and you want to stay with the 3 network then smarty may be the answer i.smarty.co.uk/ZIZQ8ix

Got to the final of #thetraitorsIRL which was a bit different. No coloured fire and banished people still said whether they were traitors or faithful right to the end. Definitely needed the fire pit as it looked very chilly for the contestants with their breath steaming

Ooh, the concept of touch in times is a new one on me so thanks for sharing that. Interesting. So you pay the peak fare but get an off peak cap and then again in the afternoon. Let's hope the journey planners have got their heads around it and can offer accurate advice

That's what's caused grumblings as the fares came in back in January even though contactless didn't. I think Chelmsford was one place and there were some on Southern where passengers were upset at stealth fare increases being advertised as "cheaper and simpler"

But does it mean TfL time restrictions e.g. no off peak until 0930 regardless of what time you get to London? As the TfL rules get further out of London they make things significantly worse for shoulder peak passengers who don't then see any fares reduction as a result of single leg pricing

A collage of spring flowers seen at Petworth with various daffodils mingling with the wood anemones
Rhubarb crumble scone on a white china plate with a silver teapot and tea in a white china cup
Since our last visit the drifts of snowdrops at Petworth have given way to "a host, of golden daffodils", "tossing their heads in sprightly dance", probably to keep the rain off. Oh, and the scone was still rhubarb www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/45521/...

It's an interesting move. Here in the UK the contactless scheme that is run by Transport for London can't link concessions with payments so it is good to see that somebody has managed to work it out. (I think it is something London is working on with their new ticketing contract provider)

Hannah Waddingham "hello campers". If they didn't know about twiglets then that will go over the heads of most of the audience, and none the worse for that #bafta

The performances of the megastars giving out the #bafta awards and stumbling through their timings, reading their spontaneous ad libs and opening the envelopes make it all the more remarkable that there are any films getting awards at all

Good spot, I like to try the flavoured ones too, even if the conclusion is that a normal spiced fruit bun is best. Google's local co-op location...

Sadly it is too early in the year. People have short memories so will mainly remember the summer events. That's not to say Matt Westin doesn't deserve it of course

Thanks. I've heard of that one. Is it just an app or did you have to buy your first one over the counter like an Oyster card? It has been great seeing your pics and story and thanks for the info
