The last time I saw a The Body Shop and it actually registered in my consciousness was when I was in Seoul a few years back - but it was in Myeong-dong, which is home of many a flagship cosmetics shop, so it was a particularly big and swanky one. I guess Lush has supplanted it as a home-grown eco-co...

Clyde 1 are broadcasting a 2-hour retrospective on the occasion of their 50th birthday, with some good bits of archive and interviews with people who were involved over the years. So far, John MacKay and Dougie Donnelly have popped up. https://planetradio.co.uk/clyde/shows/clyde-1-the-first-50-years...

I've seen both the Channel 4-only version and the version with all three networks (but also on Channel 4).

Is there an STV version for Scotland?

Some of the NatWest brands have put their new card artwork online: https://www.rbs.co.uk/content/dam/royal_bank_of_scotland/personal/current-accounts/photography/image.dim.480.Mastercard-RBS-450X280.png https://www.natwest.com/content/dam/natwest/personal/current-accounts/photography/image.dim.480....

I think Clyde 2 must have some sort of UK record for keeping more or less the same station name on more or less the same frequency - it's always had 'Clyde' in the name, and the move from 261m to 1152KHz is pretty much a rounding error. 49 years, 3 months and 2 days is going to be hard to beat. loo...

McGills of Greenock aren't too chuffed with the idea of a similar franchising model being introduced in Glasgow - which frankly a bit of top-down thinking applied to its transport network..

I think the reason that I'd be wary of adapters is that USB-C cables aren't robust enough to survive long while being jostled around in your pocket. The little cable I use for my powerbank seems to have given up the ghost after not all that much use. That said, my wireless earphones have already end...

also, the logotype bears more than a few similarities to their US namesake:

It looks like the RNIB approval is for the 'dot and notch' features - I think it would be a struggle to 'read' the embossed numbers.

Given it's no longer "Everything £1", maybe the Poundland name should be retired? Isn't it called Dealz in Ireland, where the currency is the Euro so the Poundland name wouldn't make sense? The Dealz name doesn't mention a specific price or currency, so it's futureproof. In the days where...
