Today I've mainly been hanging out with this bunch of new concepts for thecuriousacademy One has to go but I'm struggling to decide which one. Any ideas?

Out of all the social media platforms this feels like the one to just give up on across all of our businesses. Or am I just missing something about how it is still relevant?

I was apprehensive after 3 month’s to be 🚴again. I'm not sure you should be wading through water up to your knees. The 🦆& her babies were cute, although she probably shouldn't be teaching swimming in a puddle on the road! It did reminded me though, I'm definitely a country girl

I was back 🚴 to work today & reminded how depressing the town has become. The A33 is being dug up again! The streets are filthy with rubbish everywhere. The begging at the station is the same and weed is the town perfume. What do my over £6k a month biz rates actually pay for?

Favourite WhatsApp message of the day parked outside an #rdguk pub.

We contacted 140 companies who claim to be disability-confident or champion DE&I to discuss off-boarding opportunities for some of our students. How many do you think engaged in conversation?

Proud moment. We've just added up the salaries for people who have started jobs from our programmes in the last couple of years. I am proud to share that today we have hit £1.5M. The summer party just got a bit bigger.

Somehow I’ve shaved 11 mins off my 🚲 to work in just 3 weeks. Admittedly the 45 mins was very slow, I was really apprehensive after the holiday head crash. But the next few weeks means a push to hit under 30 mins to work.

I'm not sure anyone at Reading Council 🚲. The bike routes into town are overgrown which makes for an interesting cycle in and home. And the 5 plus buses that all arrive at the Broad Street Mall around 7AM cause chaos. I'd ❤️ a cycle friendly town but won't be holding my breath.

Does anybody know which wards and councillors in #rdguk would cover the A33 from Kennet Island through to where Loch Fyne was, the @readingcouncil offices and also Friar Street?

Last week Bernard sadly left us to cause chaos with other Sproodles in the sky. I hope there is chicken, cheese (the French stuff) and a cushion wherever she chooses next. I really miss this utter brown looney.

Voting ✔️ I don’t rate the candidate I’ve voted for. I don’t believe they have a clue about small biz, so today was a protest vote. I hope when we vote again small biz will actually have a party that understands our world and the contribution the risk takers bring.

Great, we now can't cycle into #rdguk to our not for profit biz The Curious Lounge because both sides of the A33 cycle path are shut at the same time. Visit Reading given your support for #indies can you talk to Reading Borough Council about common sense around roadworks and cycle paths?

After a couple of months that have been quite tough this review really made my day. Who wouldn't want to be "the best co-working space I have been to worldwide" and it's in my home town #rdguk

We escaped to Wokingham at the weekend. It was clean, had interesting green space and it felt alive. There were indies to eat at and buy from. The park was full of families having fun. Today walking through Reading high street I was reminded how depressing the town has become.

And Councils wonder why they have no money. Six posted letters about the same subject that could have been one email. Multiply that across all the business rates payers in Reading what would the cost saving be? An utterly disgusting waste.

Why has it taken 52 years to notice this on a watering can and why is it there?
