Last fiscal year I paid in over £1750 to my student loan via automatic repayments. My net balance still increased by over £500 due to the insane interest charged in Plan 2. If inflation hots up again due to the Iran war, I'll probably still be paying this loan off in my 50s.

I think what frustrates me most is that I did everything that aspirational kids in my generation were told to: I worked hard to get into Oxford, I did a credible STEM subject, and worked my ass off for a First. But now I'm working and barely pay off the interest on that loan

Happy Q4 all 🥳🎉 To quote an unnamed member of my C-suite - "god, it's ceaseless, isn't it?"

RIP to last coaster to truly scare me, all the way back in 2015. Luckily Eejanaika and especially Dinoconda remain, and are much better rides.
Six Flags Magic Mountain has announced the closure of X2. Considering everything that’s happened, this is not much of a surprise. While I will of course miss the attraction, ultimately I think this was the right move.

To any mutuals attending IAAPA who have ended up on a night out in Canary Wharf due it being near the Excel: my condolences, you will all be very bored and very broke by the time you leave

Did you even land at Heathrow if they didn't have you waiting around in the tarmac and/or taxiing for about 30 mins

Requesting leave is so degrading. I feel like a Victorian pauper coming cap in hand, asking for the time off I am both legally and contractually allowed

Very disappointed I did not get to use the line "Kirkin' hard or hardly Kirkin'?" on anyone today

Dolly Parton dead- hard to think of a more famous woman in the world. A few years ago, there was a poll which showed she was the cultural figure both Democrats and Republicans most mutually loved and admired. Virtually unique. Testament to her achievement.

How it feels to use the Hyperia main queue nowadays (there's infinity Fastrack and RAP users getting let on whilst you stand there)

Pretty nice evening overall despite substantial queues - no Stealth in the end, but 3x Hyperia including 2x back row (at night!) isn't too shabby for 3 hours on park

Due to GWR's genius tier timetabling, today I had the pleasure of a 40 minute change in Swindon. It was 5pm on a Sunday, and totally dead. Nothing was open except Greggs, and the Greggs wasn't even able to take card payments. Truly one of the places of all time
