A moment that changed me: I was always a pushover – until I stood up to some teenagers
10/28/26 6:30 AM
On the eve of my 40th birthday, I was doused with cold water at a train station. Before, I would have shrugged it off. But suddenly I realised it was time to assert myselfIt was the evening before my 40th birthday – a freezing cold night in March – and I was travelling across London to meet some old school friends for dinner. As I walked down the stairs into the tube station, I spotted a few teens leaning over the balustrade above me. I thought nothing of it; teens hanging about aimlessly is as classic a combination as Archers and lemonade. That was, until they each threw a few KFC paper cups’ worth of icy water over my head.I noticed it in slow-motion and, at first, kept walking. Then I realised that my hair was wet and so was my back. Without thinking, I ran back up the stairs and followed the teens, who were marching off down the main road. People on the street were watching me, obviously intrigued to see what I was going to do. What was I going to do? A few people looked at me with pity and pointed me in the right direction. Continue reading...

10/27/26 12:58 AM
Today, companies expect artificial intelligence to do much more than answer basic customer questions. Early on, the standard for adoption was straightforward: if software saved employee hours, it justified the investment. Tools that summarized meetings, organized inboxes, and handled repetitive, time-consuming tasks freed up staff to focus on customer conversations, yet left a significant blind […] The post AI Is Becoming a Revenue Strategy Instead of Just a Productivity Tool appeared first on Grit Daily News.
Allotmentcore: why everyone is dressing like Barbara in The Good Life
10/26/26 10:00 AM
Clogs, chore jackets, straw hats and woven baskets are the look of the season. But are the brands and people embracing this aesthetic really doing any gardening?Lately, it feels like you can’t move for clogs. Everywhere you look, it’s straw hats, dungarees, floaty dresses, chore jackets and basket bags – and that’s in city centres, not garden centres. This is the rise of “allotmentcore” – somewhere between the linen-clad luxury of the “coastal grandmother” and the whimsical outdoorsiness of “cottagecore” – and it’s coming for all of our autumns.“I’d describe it as Little House on the Prairie meets Felicity Kendal in The Good Life, meets Bill and Ben,” says Mal James, professor of fashion design at the University of Edinburgh. “With the overall style of an imaginary love child of Monty Don and Pamela Anderson, the reinvented queen of garden chic.” It’s true that Anderson – once most famous for sporting a high-leg red swimsuit – has more recently become a pioneer of the allotmentcore style, living “romantically” in midi dresses and bandanas, frequently clutching floral bouquets. Popular brands include the family-run Carrier Company from Norfolk, Danish designers Skall Studio and Welsh-founded lifestyle label Toast. As online fashion publication Who What Wear put it: “If it looks like you’re ready to sport a pair of pruning shears at any moment, you’ve got the look right.” Continue reading...
