So teachers are going on strike

That means I will need to take a day off work or pay for childcare

Yet if we take a child out for a day there is a chance we will get fined

So can I bill the school for my expenses ?
Not all teachers will be striking. It's the biggest teaching union and the vote was overwhelming, but only just over half the members actually voted.

Long day in London with a couple of beers after and I forgot my phone charger, on the train home and hoping either I have enough battery, or there is a hackney carriage at the station.

Hyundai deciding to tell us how to pronounce their name after 20 years of accepting our mispronunciation.
I have no problem in saying it right but would have good to have been told earlier.

Skoda are more subtle and just pronounce it differently in their ads - or with a heavy accent anyhow!

Loads of issues across the Microsoft Cloud in Europe breaking all my stuff running in Azure.

Outlook and Teams down for some but not for me, so I still get my daily dose of pointless calls and inane emails.
