"Between 96 and 99% of your Facebook friends DO NOT LOVE YOU" - if you are in any doubt about what to post on Facebook , read this first!

When you live and work in the countryside, 30 miles from the big shops you get used to regular packages from Amazon. Today brought me a new monitor and keyboard and a swimming hat which was of great interest to certain four-legged friends.

Came into the office this morning to find my laptop hard drive had failed so now up to this fun and games. Fortunately my data is all backed up to the cloud, so won't have lost anything.

United Airlines scandal has put me in mind of this video which I use in my social media talks - well worth a watch. Dave Carroll was a struggling singer in a band when his guitar got broken on a UA flight.

He was catapulted to stardom and eventually - eventually - he got an apology. One of the first social media customer protests! Give it a watch https://youtu.be/5YGc4zOqozo
