I will never buy another item from @SportsDirectUK after they let me down so badly with a Christmas gift I ordered for a grandson. Appalling, indifferent and thinking a lame apology would do. I’m getting a refund but the bottom line is they failed a customer. #joke See👇

It's a sunny day in Donegal. Either I harass you on X or go to the pub. Good to see you've still got the reporter's nose.

Car said temp hit 31C. Yet, the app gave a maximum of 24C. From the feel of it, I think the reading in the car was more accurate. @metofficeUK @DowntownNewsNI @QRadioOfficial @U105radio
