Houston airport kept receiving complaints about the seven minute wait time at luggage collection for one of their routes, so they switched the gate to make the walk there five minutes longer and the complaints stopped.

I wish to point out that @rovers have won the Premier League more times than Spurs. I assume we must have turned the ESL down (well done us!) and that THFC were their fallback…?

So let us get this #EuropeanSuperLeague stuff straight: Twelve teams are going to send their best and brightest into an arena to fight each other to the death in exchange for food and riches for their home district? Is that right or did we get confused.

OK one thread and then nothing else on ⚽️. People like me love football because teams represent communities. The history is built in. You're part of something. As soon as we got away from that idea we were in big trouble. We can't pretend it started yesterday.

The dead cat: a thread. So my Dad, who lives with me, texted last night: 'How are things? There’s a dead cat in the barn.' Me: What? Dad: Not a parrot. A dead cat. I know a dead cat when I see one. (one for the Pythons) (1/)
— Jojo Moyes (@jojomoyes) April 19, 2021
Me: Oh god. How recently dead is it?
— Jojo Moyes (@jojomoyes) April 19, 2021
Dad: I don’t know. It wouldn’t say.
I went out to look and there was indeed a small dead black and white cat. No sign of injury. But very much dead.
(2/)
I posted on our village web page, asking if anyone had lost a black and white cat. Nobody had. But many people responded telling me to take it to a vet to check for a microchip. Great. I live half an hour from a vet. And I’m busy. (3/)
— Jojo Moyes (@jojomoyes) April 19, 2021
So this morning, I call my (slightly forbidding) vet and ask if they can scan it for a microchip, slightly hoping they’ll say no. They say they can squeeze me in at 10.30. I rearrange the things I had to do and get a bin bag ready. (4/)
— Jojo Moyes (@jojomoyes) April 19, 2021
I open my boot and head out to the garage. No cat. I'm pretty sure it was dead. I look for signs that a fox might have taken it. Nothing. I walk around until I find our new gardener, Steve. “Steve, I don’t suppose you’ve seen a dead cat, have you?” (5/)
— Jojo Moyes (@jojomoyes) April 19, 2021
Steve: “Sure. Your dad told me to bury it.” Me: “But I’ve got to take it to the vets.” Steve: “I’ve buried it in the woods.”
— Jojo Moyes (@jojomoyes) April 19, 2021
A long pause.
Steve: “Are you asking me to dig it up again?” (6/)
Which is how we came to dig up a dead cat in the woods in order to take it to a vet’s appointment.
— Jojo Moyes (@jojomoyes) April 19, 2021
We – uh – brushed it off as best as we could.
Of course I spilt my coffee down my front on the drive there. Because of course I did. (7/)
I arrive, slightly stained, at the vets and give my name. “I rang earlier about a cat?” Receptionist: “I’m afraid you’re very late.”
— Jojo Moyes (@jojomoyes) April 19, 2021
Me (holding out a bin bag): “Well … I had to dig it up.” (8/)
An exquisitely long silence in the veterinary reception. A woman sitting nearby may have hugged her dog a little bit tighter.
— Jojo Moyes (@jojomoyes) April 19, 2021
And now I need a new vet. And possibly a new gardener. Happy Monday everyone! (9/)
