What’s this @GreggsOfficial I hear about you no longer serving dairy free milk? So we can’t enjoy visiting as a family now? Someone has to sit there without a drink and watch everyone else? I think we’ll all be going elsewhere.

Would you like to comment @CJHole? Where exactly do you think people have moved to when their retirement property is on the market?

Pretty insensitive & stupid marketing from @cjholewestbury don’t you think? Letter sent to a retirement property currently on the market with another agent, “If you're busy looking for your next move to a dream home, we'd love to help you find 'the one.’”

The Kingsweston bridge returns tomorrow! The road won’t be open for a couple of weeks and we will have to wait even longer to cross the bridge itself.

The team at @WhatsApp have ruined #announcement groups for many by introducing the facility for members to reply and not allowing admin to turn off this facility. This renders them little different to any other sort of #WhatsApp group. Can get no sense out of support. Solutions?

Hungarian-born architect and designer Ernő Goldfinger was born #onthisday in 1902. 🏢 Goldfinger was known for his Brutalist tower blocks including the Trellick Tower on the Cheltenham Estate in London. The 31-storey building was completed in 1972, and is Grade II* listed.

The docs are displayed in our searchroom for the rest of the summer. And if you feel moved by this to start researching Bristol’s LGBTQ+ histories, we’ve just published a new research guide https://t.co/vpknXnEAsI With thanks to @thehistoryb0y who got this work started 💖 3/3
So little evidence exists of LGBTQ+ lives from the past. This find is something to be celebrated, despite its tragic nature. https://t.co/fQeo1DNKWK 2/3
