Every time I make a post about Romani (specifically growing up travelling with the circus) Dick Grayson, I am always so scared someone’s gonna take offence to something I say, or disagree (which is fine - everyone’s experiences are different and I am not American), or be racist or some shit. So far this has not been the case and everyone’s been so lovely, but I do feel the need to clarify for the sake of transparency:
I am from the UK - aka not American.
As with every culture, there are often differences - things like public perception, how the community operates, how we view ourselves etc. for example, anti GRT discrimination is rife in the UK, and as such, things which might be common for us (eg growing up fighting) might be different abroad. The other thing is how the GRT community is defined: this is a whole argument with no satisfactory argument given how easily each group overlaps and how a lot of us trace our families back.
The Romani that I speak is (unsurprisingly, since I am British) Angloromani. Speaking to other Romani-speakers in Europe, we have found that there are some differences. However, whenever I make a Romani Dick Grayson post, I am doing my best to make sure that I am using the most universally accepted form of the language, but I can’t guarantee other Romani speakers/people on this site won’t translate things differently. And that’s ok! Romani is a purely spoken language and has many forms. Two things can be correct at once, and I’m the first to admit that I am not a one-woman book of all knowledge - I can only give the information that I know and grew up with!
Just to really drive that point home: there are gypsies all over the world, none of us have the same experiences! Please be respectful of everyone’s experiences/interpretations! Just because they’re different, doesn’t mean either is wrong!
Also, because of the nature of the Romani language in the 21st century, I would not say that I am fluent. I know a comfortable amount which I grew up using as a first language (alongside English) in the home, but my grandparents definitely know more! To be honest, we mostly use Romani when we don’t want to be overheard (read: gossiping) or in emergency situations, and that usage is reflected in my vocab.
If you are looking for a Romani vocab book, there are a lot of resources online. From my experience, Dawson’s 2002 book is the most accurate! (Yes I go looking for vocab books in my own language. I am a linguistics nerd, ok?)
At least in my experience, it’s a big thing with gypsies ‘not to educate the gorjas/gadjas (non gypsies)’ particularly with regards to language. This is for the sake of preserving the Romani language as something only for the Romani-speaking GRT community, as opposed to being a bandwagon for people to jump on. It is a cultural thing, and though I’m happy to see people use it in their writing, I am going to be selective with what/how much I share, if only for a) cultural preservation, b) safety reasons - there is a reason gypsies developed a language separate from that of the country in which they reside: sometimes we need to have conversations in private, and I’m not going to let my big mouth cause problems there.
I call myself a gypsy. I am aware that this is a slur abroad, but it is not treated as such in the UK. A lot of us use it as a general term for easiness’ sake. In other words, gypsy genealogy is bloody complicated and it’s not worth explaining over the internet (also I don’t fancy being doxxed).
If you have any questions, I am always happy to answer to the best of my ability, but I thought it worth explaining now before the ‘my Romani friend said it’s actually X’ comments start rolling in😂
Anyway, peace and love xox

Thess vs Old Friends
It's tricky when people you were friends with some while ago end up ... to pick a nonspecific example ... becoming a Hugo-winning writer. Not because you don't wish them well or anything, but because there's something inherently tricky in the "this person is going to be doing a signing within travelling distance" thing.
I used to RP with this person - WoD chat and forum stuff. She had less time because her writing career was taking off, and I was keeping up with players who did have time to RP and were kind of demanding about it- and that was a situation which, now that I think about it, remind me a little bit of all the shit that happened in my first fandom, though thankfully ended better... Anyway, it got complicated and we were kinda going in different directions and we haven't really talked since she dropped the RP entirely, and particularly not since the site kinda died at least ten years ago now. I follow her a couple of places, though, which is how I found out that she's going to be in London doing a book signing.
I did buy a ticket. I will have to book time off from work to go to that one, but I do intend to go. ...I think. Like, I just don't know how I'm going to handle it. Particularly since a) we have met in person so she knows what I look and sound like, b) she knows my actual name and c) I am probably going to ask her to sign it "Thess" anyway - not because that's the name she knows me by specifically but because, like I said to the entire Critical Role cast, "People I like call me Thess".
And yes, I am still worried about point a), because while it has been over a decade, that's no guarantee. Storytime: when I was in my, like, early 20s, I was in Montreal because we'd taken my grandmother on a cruise or something and we were spending some time there before heading back to the UK. So my mother and I are walking down one of Montreal's main shopping drags and this guy walks past - red hair, freckles, dark brown eyes ... and I knew that face. I'd last seen him when we were both pre-teens. He was my best friend, and my first crush. So I told my mother to hang on a sec, jogged back to catch up to him, tapped him on the shoulder. Sure enough, it was him. And if I could recognise an old friend after puberty'd had his way with him, and have him recognise me once prompted? Pretty easy to recognise someone you met as an adult. Yes, even with the asymmetrical pixie cut and the cane.
Still, that story makes me feel a little better because that best friend and I had kind of drifted apart when I moved to the US, and hadn't spoken since a good while before I moved to the UK. Even so, though, he was thrilled to see me, and dropped everything to have a coffee and a chat with me once I'd said hello. (Thankfully Mum didn't mind being abandoned for a few hours - I think she knew that you don't ignore those moments of serendipity.) That worked out well; no reason to believe this won't. At worst, she'll be professional. I can live with that. ...With anxiety, sure, but that's just me having issues; I'll cope.
Besides, there are very few people I'd travel to Central London for. Favourite authors are in that category. So are old friends. Both? Has to be done. (Besides, the characters in the book she's signing share a last name with one of the characters I RP'd with her. So maybe she remembers more fondly than I think.)

Enjoying the World on a Dime!
Hello to all my fellow veteran travelers, those who are planning their first journey, and everyone in between! If you are anything like me, even the idea of planning a trip is enough to light a fire in your soul!
However, many of us are burdened by our student loans, rent, mortgage, and other bills which have been preventing us from clicking that beautiful blue "book now" button. This series of blogs aims to help those adventurous souls plan their trip for as cheap as possible! With some creative hacks and strategic forethought, you too can enjoy the world on a dime!
Tumblr media
Let's talk about the most important piece of traveling, getting from Point A to Point B. Luckly, there are many tips that make it more cost-friendly!
Tip for Traveling by Airplane, Train, Bike, Car, Bus, or Boat!
Being Flexible with Dates: Being able to move dates to the left and right is a great way to save a lot of money. A rule of thumb is that flying on the weekdays or during off-peak times can really help keep the price low.
Comparing Multiple Sources: There are many platforms that will help aid you in comparing prices, such as Expedia.com, so you can get the cheapest deals.
Book in Advance: Generally, booking a flight weeks to months in advance can help you secure some of the cheapest prices.
Using Incognito Mode: Something that many people don't know is that some airlines may increase prices based on search history. To avoid these dynamic changes, make sure you are using a hidden browser and not accepting cookies.
Round Trip/ One-Way: I always check round trip first, then try to plan my trip individually. For instance, I did this for my trip to Brazil. Round trip was going to cost me about $1,100. After booking each flight individually as one-ways, I spent a total of $894.
Purchase a Railcard/ MetroCard: If you are in a country where trains or metros are a common transportation method, consider get a card that will give you discounts on all your rides like UK's 16-25 Railcard or Spain's T-Casual metro pass. This can help you not only get around the city but also travel between cities for cheap!
Check for Group Discounts: Some providers will offer a discount if traveling with a group which could significantly reduce the cost!
Watch out for Extra Fees: Be cautions of extra fees such as seat selection or other hidden costs that may increase the price. Some sites are set up to make you think that you have to purchase these "add-ons" off first glance.
Public Transit: Don't underestimate the effectiveness of using buses, trams, and subways. Most places have great transit services that are fast and cheap. Finding a day pass can save you even more!
Bike Rentals: If you are in a bike-friendly city, one of the best ways to explore at your own pace is by renting a bike.
There you have it, there are some tips for planning the transportation for your next big adventure! If you learned something new or have other considerations for saving, please leave a comment below! If you'd like to learn more about cost effective living arrangements while traveling, make sure you check out my other blogs. Follow me so you never miss another chance to save!
Stay curious, stay inspired, and safe travels! 🌍✈️💸

Tumblr media
Hello you lot, it’s been a little while, how are you all doing?
I’m writing this, distracting myself from last minute packing for Glastonbury which is coming at me quick this weekend. I’m massively disorganised at the best of times so it’s absolute chaos round here. Piles of stuff all over the place. Gambling on no rain which feels like a bit of a risk, but hey. Glastonbury for me is like summer’s answer to Christmas, so I’m well excited. Some of our most surreal and favourite gigs ever have been there, but I’ve also been coming as a punter with my mates for years and years. And while I know the idea of living in a busy, noisy field to watch music for 5 days straight is a lot of people’s idea of hell, I can’t bloody wait (even if I’ve got that anticipation-sick-stomach feeling you get before a big night). There’s so much great music on the lineup this year, but that magical parallel universe of a festival site is vast and sprawling, so feel free to imagine me and my mates - running around like headless chickens, trying to be in 6 places at once - from now til Monday. Actually don’t do that, no one needs that image.
Tumblr media
The main reason I’m writing this is because I’ve made some new music and am in the process of getting it all ready for you to hear. I wanted to find a way to be directly in touch about all of that, about what’s been happening with us, what’s to come, and as a way to share a bunch of recommendations and things that I think are interesting (and hope you will too).
So, this is a hello to anyone who’s new here, and of course hi again to anyone who’s been around for a while. Cheers for reading this (I’m impressed if you’ve made it this far). I’m properly excited for what’s up next (more on that later) and in the meantime I’ll do my best to make these mails worth your time.
When me and the guys and our whole touring team finished our tours at the end of last year it felt like the right time for us all to take a proper break. Obviously we’re insanely lucky to get to play music and to travel all over the world with it, but we hadn’t really, properly stopped at all since we started out more than 10 years ago. Touring’s been this dominant line that’s cut right through and across most of our adult lives. While it can be an amazing whirlwind and is of course a huge privilege, it can also be completely all consuming, and, like loads of things in life, it’s not without its challenges. So, for that and for many different reasons, this year felt like the right time to not book any gigs at all and see what life looked like. It’s genuinely the first time since Bastille started that there’s been nothing scheduled. Mad.
We’ve all been off doing different things and getting on with life, while getting used to being in one place for a while. For me - in what’ll come as no surprise to anyone who knows me - I’ve not really been that great at sitting still or taking a break. I’ve been busy working on some fun things… so why would I want to not be doing that?!
Tumblr media
Being home and being around has been genuinely brilliant, I’m really loving it. Part of that has been because for the first time in ages I’ve had the time to work on music and songwriting at home on my laptop, very much like how I did back when I was making the songs that became Bad Blood. This year so far has been such a fun and creatively satisfying time and I’ve felt well lucky having the space to chase a bunch of ideas and see where they lead and what they become. It probably sounds (and is) pretty self indulgent, but it’s been great.
Amongst all of that stuff (and general life stuff) I’ve used the time to travel a bunch, to take in as many films/books/gigs/shows/art as possible, I spent some time out at sea on the Greenpeace boat in the Bermuda Triangle (?!?!?), ran a half marathon for Warchild with some mates (thanks so much to anyone who sponsored - you’re brilliant), Tour-Managed my friends band FOURS on their UK tour with To Kill A King, and have been working away on a whole load of different projects with some brilliant people. I’ve also been learning the guitar… something I’ve always wanted to do but never seemed able to properly focus on.
Tumblr media
And the reason I’ve learned guitar has to do with that new music I mentioned. There’ll be loads more news to come on that in the very near future (I’m excited to talk about the process and ideas behind it all… come on guys it’s my weird brain here so nothing’s ever as simple as it could be). I’ve tried to approach the whole process of recording and beyond in a totally different way, and I’m beyond excited to share it all with you.
For now… I’ve got to get back to packing or I’ll find myself on Sunday with no clean pants. I’m  here in my room with my head in my phone, sat amongst these piles and I haven’t even found a bag for any of it yet, so I better get on with it.
And to anyone here that’s also heading to Glastonbury this weekend, I hope you’re all packed and ready, and maybe I’ll bump into you there somewhere? (Oh s**t, also don’t forget to come to Pilton Palais on Sunday to join me and the editor of Empire Magazine having a chat about Nosferatu and horror films!)
Speak soon.

Victoria Day Flight Deals 2025: Budget Packages for the Long Weekend
If Victoria Day marks the unofficial summer day in Canada, it's a date full of instances for sleigh rides and great hiking activities. It offers Canadians that rare long weekend to unwind, socialize, explore, and appreciate good weather. What better occasion to go on a short trip without asking for extended leave? In other words, maybe with some planning, one can bag cheap Victoria Day flights and cheaper-than-dirt memories of a lifetime. In this blog, we'll tell you how to spot Victoria Day cheap flights, top destinations for the Victoria Day long weekend, and travel tips to enable you to get the best out of your short trips.
Tumblr media
Why Book During the Victoria Day Long Weekend?
This is the occasion to celebrate Queen Victoria's birthday, a deeply ingrained tradition in Canada. For many, it's the first long weekend of the year with decent weather, making it perfect for travel. The demand for Victoria Day flights is very high, so start planning whether you decide to remain here in Canada or fly somewhere farther away!
With more travelers opting to plan a long weekend escape, fares tend to shoot up closer to the departure date. Track down and book those Cheap Victoria Day flights early, and you will surely get your pick of routes and timings at a price that is not daunting.
Top Domestic Destinations for the Victoria Day Weekend Getaway
Toronto: During May, Toronto surely bustles with activity. With landmark attractions like the CN Tower, Harbourfront, and Kensington Market, things certainly cannot go scarce. Visit parks and waterfront patios, and then top it off with fireworks by Ashbridges Bay.
Vancouver: What a city for outdoor lovers! Surrounded by mountains, ocean, and parks, biking, hiking, and walking opportunities are just minutes away from downtown. May is an excellent time to stroll along Stanley or go to one of its beaches.
Montreal: Montreal is a conglomerate of French Canadian culture, world-class cuisine, and edginess in festivals. Walk along the streets of Old Montreal, indulge in some poutines at local bistros, and enjoy either a concert or an art exhibit.
Calgary: Calgary offers you a sample of the West, very accessible to the Rockies. There is something for everyone from cultural events downtown to hiking and scenic drives straight out of the city.
Tumblr media
Top International Destinations for a Victoria Day Weekend Escape
New York City: Easily a short flight from almost all Canadian cities, NYC is every weekend vacation-seeker's dream. Spring evokes memories of Central Park, Broadway, festivals, art, and the dining scene- the city is always moving.
Florida (Miami or Fort Lauderdale): With beach and sun as your criteria, southern destinations like Miami promise sunny skies, leisure beaches, and great nightlife for a quick tropical respite.
London: Depending on how long you extend your weekend, it's an excellent further-flight international option. Gardens in full bloom, cultural events, and markets for quaint shopping fill your UK springtime.
How to Find Cheap Flights for Victoria Day 2025
1. Book Early: Booking your flight soon typically encourages airlines to price their tickets low (especially on holiday weekends) and keep them there for a reasonable length of time. The further from the peak travel period that you start, the cheaper the airfares will be.
2. Be Flexible with Dates: There are often fare adjustment days on either side of popular travel weekends, so build an option into your schedules. If you can do it at departure, you may experience better prices and possibly more flight options.
3. Use Fare Comparison Sites: Fare comparison sites like Google Flights, Skyscanner, Kayak, and Expedia allow you to compare airlines on multiple days in a range of dates and values; they will also allow you to set limits for low-cost carriers, route, and departure time to suit your values.
4. Set Fare Alerts: Most flight search engines provide price drop alert services. Set alerts for price changes on your chosen route.
5. Use Alternate airports: Occasionally, a search using fluctuating feeder airports. If you are flying into Toronto, check Pearson and Billy Bishop airport flight fares.
6. Sign up for newsletters with airlines: Airlines like WestJet, Air Canada, Flair, and Swoop should be checked, subscribed to, and, if you can find them, noted for newsletters to consider price alignments. Airlines have sales and promotions in their promo newsletters that subscribers access before the general public—it is worth checking all avenues.
Tumblr media
Travel Tips for Planning a Successful Long Weekend Trip
• Pack Light: Only bring a carry-on to avoid baggage fees and added time at the airport.
• Travel Requirements: Check the validity of your passport and look into visas or vaccinations if you're crossing international borders.
• Arrive Early: Airports are busy on long weekends, so arrive at the airport at least two hours before your domestic flight and three hours before an international flight.
• Confirm Flight Times: Check your flight for delays and/or cancellations and confirm time changes, especially if you're flying into or out of a busy airport.
Victoria Day long weekend is the perfect opportunity to reconnect, discover something new, or spend time with family and friends. With so many places to go and many Victoria Day flight deals to choose from, now is the time to figure out your spring getaway. Start by evaluating each option and setting alerts, then book early so you can find the cheap flights Victoria Day travelers want. Whether traveling across the nation or crossing borders, your next trip is a click away. Look no further than your Victoria Day flights, get out of the hustle, and take advantage of this long weekend.

What Is a Business Phone System?
Tumblr media
Your mobile’s done its bit. It’s helped you close a few deals, follow up with clients, and dodge the odd sales pitch.
But if it’s still your company’s main line, let’s just say… it’s not them, it’s you.
When customers call a business, they expect clarity, structure, and — dare we say — a touch of professionalism.
So, what is a business phone system? And why is it not the same as handing your mobile number to the whole world?
Let’s clear the air — with less jargon, more sense.
So, What Is a Business Phone System? Think of it as your company’s communications HQ.
It routes calls, handles voicemails, and transfers customers to the right people — even if they’re in another city
It can:
Handle multiple calls without melting down Greet customers with a professional voice, not “Hello? Who’s this?” Record calls, forward messages, queue callers, and keep your team sane And it does all this whether your team’s in-office, hybrid or working from the back seat of an Uber.
The Real Problem with Mobiles
Mobiles are brilliant. But they weren’t built to be switchboards, receptionists, or analytics tools.
If you’re still running your business on a mobile:
You can’t route calls without a clumsy “Hang on, I’ll text them to call you” You miss opportunities while you’re on another call You can’t track anything — no logs, no patterns, no insights You sound small — and in business, that matters Business phone systems fix that — without needing an IT degree.
Cloud-Based, Not Cloudy The best phone systems today are hosted in the cloud.
That means:
No clunky on-site hardware No engineer visits No 90s-style landlines Just sleek, plug-and-play tech that works on your laptop, mobile, or office handset. Your team gets proper extensions. Customers get a proper experience.
Who Actually Needs One? Not just the “big guys”. If you:
Answer customer calls Have more than one employee Ever need to transfer, record, or monitor calls …then yes — it’s time.
Real-world examples:
Schools – route calls to admin, headteachers, finance Hotels – manage bookings, room service, check-ins Estate Agencies – track calls, manage field agents Travel Agencies – offer 24/7 support across time zones Small consultancies – sound bigger, work smarter Key Features to Look For (No Bells, Just Whistles That Work) Auto-attendant (Press 1 for Sales, etc.) Voicemail to email Call transfer & routing Mobile/Laptop compatibility Call logs & basic analytics UK-based support (yes, actual humans) At PineVox, you get all this — and we don’t hide it in ‘premium plans’.
Final Word A business phone system isn’t about being fancy. It’s about being functional.
It’s the difference between sounding like a mate with a side hustle… and a business people trust with serious money.
Make the switch. Sound the part. Grow up your phone setup.
Ready to Talk Like a Business? We’re PineVox —built for business.
