So all the social media platforms are down.
Twitter, WhatsApp, Facebook, twitter, Instagram. Most are not related to each other as far as I know.
How will I know what people are having for their evening meal now.
Maybe the remoaners can pin this one on Brexit as well.

Twitter is not down.
The other three are all owned by Facebook.
Probably those slitty-eyed, virus spreading b*stards

I was hoping to find that information here.

A Co-Op Lunch Meal Deal of a packet of Red Leicester Ploughman's Sandwich, a bag of Big Hoops, and a can of Jimmy's Iced Coffee Mocha.
Sandwich not bad. Hoops will last me a couple of days. Coffee Mocha... a sweet and sickly mistake.
Desperate times call for desperate measures.

My grandson couldn't get on to Twitter earlier. Still can't now either. Just checked and it's saying it's down.
But yes, maybe it's our bat munching friends from the east as you say.

I'm thinking that the yanks have them in their sights for some good old enforced democracy.
I myself have just enjoyed a Pukka steak pie, fresh from the oven. I'm sending for myself this evening and not that hungry.
Enjoy your meals ladies.

I enjoyed some glasses of very good wine from Argentina, Germany and Italy with delicious Spanish cheeses and olives at a wine bar downtown. Back home, I am having a can of IPA from a micro brewery in my neighbourhood with cashews and a local apple with cinnamon.
I do not miss Stella or Obelisk (or Facebook), but I do long to go back to Egypt.

A familiar ringtone told me that things are back to normal. It was a Messenger video call from Luxor. It is probably too late to see what people had for dinner, but nice to spend an evening on Luxor4U.
I’ll have breakfast in an innovative cafe where they roast your coffee while you wait and brew their own ginger ale. I was only going to spend a month away from Luxor when I left for Christmas. I am still living like a tourist in Scandinavia, though I would much rather begin the day with fuul and tameiya.
See you on Facebook.

It makes you wonder how many of the younger generation managed without their apps last night.

Who knows, perhaps, they may have realised there is real life, once they are outside of their front doors ?
