I was flying to Guernsey with a guy called Steve to do some work for a furniture company but arrived at Gatwick just as the flight was taking off. We had to phone the boss to say that we'd missed the flight. He was livid but organised to get us on to the next available flight which was in 8 hours time. He had to wait in Guernsey with a van full of £3000 wardrobes and angry customers, whilst we waited in Gatwick for the next flight. I whiled away the time by making recordings and writing poetry.

About the Guest Carly Hunt is the Head of Strategic Partnerships of Showerkap, a UK-based water technology company tackling excessive water consumption in the hospitality sector. With over 20 years in hotel management — latterly focused on energy, waste, and water reduction programmes — Carly brings rare operational depth to the sustainability challenge she's now helping to solve. Her academic background in sustainable tourism (the subject of her university dissertation) makes her return to this space something of a full-circle moment. Episode Summary Water scarcity might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you book a hotel room, but it probably should be. In this episode of Shape the System, host Vincent Turner sits down with Carly Hunt, Head of Strategic Partnerships of Showerkap, to explore how the hospitality industry is one of the heaviest — and least scrutinised — consumers of fresh water on the planet. Hotels can use up to eight times more water than local residents, with individual rooms consuming as much as 1,500 litres per day. Meanwhile, the UK's Environment Agency is forecasting a potential shortfall of 1.4 billion litres per day by 2030, rising to 5 billion by 2050. The numbers are stark, and Carly makes the case that demand reduction — not just supply management — has to be part of the answer. Carly's entry into this space came through two decades of hotel management, where she discovered that energy and waste were relatively easy to monitor and reduce, but water was almost impossible to measure at any meaningful resolution. That gap led her to Showerkap, the brainchild of inventor Steve Harding, which combines three elements that have never previously been integrated in the water sector: fixture-level IoT monitoring across an entire building, a cloud-based analytics platform, and a novel shower fade timer that delivers a real-time behavioural nudge — without restricting flow. The pilot results, run across one floor of the Sandman Hotel at Gatwick Airport, were striking. Prior to the intervention, guests were showering for 35 minutes or more — consuming around 245 litres per session. After the shower fade timer was introduced (set to seven minutes), average shower duration across the 20-room eco-floor dropped to just three minutes and 20 seconds. Overall water usage fell by 58%, energy use by 14%, and the projected saving across the full hotel is approximately 2.7 million litres per year. Of the guests who stayed across nearly a year of the pilot, only three declined to participate in the eco-floor — a participation rate that Carly and Vincent calculate at roughly 99%. The commercial case is deliberately straightforward: Showerkap is targeting a two-year payback period, meaning hotels can effectively finance the installation against the savings it generates. Beyond the headline water and energy savings, the technology surfaces hidden operational value — the Sandman pilot uncovered hot water circulation issues throughout the building and enabled early detection of Legionella risk. The go-to-market strategy currently leans on pilots and case studies to build trust in a space where water has historically been undervalued, with an eye toward expansion into the Mediterranean, MENA, and other water-scarce markets. An upcoming back-of-house research piece, potentially in partnership with the Sustainable Hospitality Alliance, is expected to extend Showerkap's evidence base well beyond the bathroom. Key Takeaways Hotels use up to eight times more water per person than local residents, with some rooms consuming up to 1,500 litres per day — making demand reduction in hospitality a high-leverage intervention. Showerkap's pilot at the Sandman Hotel, Gatwick, achieved a 58% reduction in shower water usage and cut energy consumption by 14%, with average shower times dropping from 35+ minutes to under three and a half minutes. The technology's payback period is approximately two years, making it financeable against projected savings — a critical threshold for hotel procurement teams weighing up an unfamiliar category. Behavioural nudges, not flow restrictions, drive the results: the shower fade timer gives guests a gentle cue and the option to continue, yet the vast majority choose to reduce — suggesting most water waste is habitual rather than intentional. Showers account for over 50% of hotel bathroom water use, but the IoT platform also surfaces back-of-house inefficiencies in kitchens, laundry, and plumbing systems — unlocking operational and maintenance savings beyond the guest experience. Notable Quotes "Water is one of the most vital resources on earth. And we all know that. And we rarely treat it that way because we automatically run a tap and it's there." — Carly Hunt "Reducing showers by just a couple of minutes can save 20 litres. And if those small actions become millions, then think of the impact that would have." — Carly Hunt "We always say that water intrinsically is linked to everything. We can't do anything without water." — Carly Hunt "We don't want to force anyone to change, because that doesn't work. You have to effectively give them the tools to actually do it themselves." — Carly Hunt Resources Showerkap Sustainable Hospitality Alliance (mentioned in episode) Shape the System is an independent podcast with support from KPMG High Growth Ventures More about KPMG High Growth VenturesScale up for success.

Lucy Keeler's version of “a rough start to the year” is… intense.After picking up a tropical illness in Thailand, Lucy went from fully independent to unable to walk, dress herself, type, or even hold a pen thanks to brutal joint inflammation that lingered for months. Doctors couldn't confirm exactly what caused it (possible chikungunya or parvovirus), and recovery was slow, painful, and messy.But instead of waiting around for life to feel “normal” again, Lucy did what a lot of us do when we're trapped in the house and losing our minds: she needed something to aim at.An Instagram ad, a half-delusional spark of hope, and a stubborn refusal to write herself off later… Lucy signs up to run 200 miles across Tajikistan in 7 days — despite not even being able to walk properly when she first saw it.This episode is about recovery, pushing yourself (without ignoring reality), the power of goals, and why most people quit right before the turning point. Also: periods in the mountains, zero running water, and the kind of camaraderie that makes you feel human again.Timestamps00:00 — Lucy's “dare and win”: unable to walk… then 200 miles across Tajikistan01:50 — Thailand illness hits hard: fever, shaking, and “is this normal?” moments03:25 — Back home: arms seize up, can't move, can't breathe properly, A&E visit05:30 — The swelling gets serious: can't stand, can't dress herself, tropical disease hospital06:10 — Possible diagnoses + reality of recovery: months of pain, steroids, and work support08:45 — The pivot: “I need something to look forward to” (goal-setting in survival mode)10:00 — The Instagram ad that changed everything + what the Tajikistan run actually is22:30 — The hardest day: illness, no calories, endometriosis surprise, big climb, and not quittingKey TakeawaysJust because you look “fine” doesn't mean you are. Lucy talks about that weird limbo where you're functioning on the outside but in agony underneath.A goal can be a lifeline. Not a “new year, new me” goal — a give-me-a-reason-to-keep-going goal.Stubbornness is a double-edged sword. It got her through Thailand, through Gatwick, through A&E… and eventually into recovery (but she also admits she should've accepted help sooner).Fear gets loud right before you do something brave. Lucy's body starts “hurting again” right before the trip — classic panic symptoms dressing up as logic.Community changes everything. This wasn't a race — it was a shared experience built on support, breaks, check-ins, and people who refuse to let you quit alone.Hard days are part of the deal. The breakdown day wasn't a sign to stop — it was the point most people would stop… and that's why it mattered.Adventure doesn't require a new identity. Lucy loves her job, loves London, and still makes space for big challenges — you don't have to burn your life down to expand it.The dare is simple (and annoying): push the button on the thing you keep thinking about.Check out The Great Silk Run! https://bit.ly/4aoNRPwShop She Who Dares Wins: www.shewhodareswins.comJoin Dare Club: https://stan.store/shewhodareswinsYoutube Channel: youtube.com/channel/UCkCSa96nwEKh-aeAbhXI7PA/Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/shewhodareswins Hosted on Acast.

Property prices in London and parts of the South East fell this year by up to 8.9%, as Silver surged 138% and Gold continued its upward trajectory rising by just under 58%! Crawley, a town close to Gatwick airport in West Sussex, suffered an 8.9% drop of £36,000, with High Wycombe falling 7.4% wiping £34,000 off average house values. Even trendy Brighton was hit with a 4.8% or £20,000 dive, according to Lloyds bank. The London property market has also suffered a 2.4% year on year decline of 2.4%, not helped by a weak economy, tax hikes, Stamp Duty increase in April and uncertainty over the budget which saw the introduction of a mansion tax.

Overseas buyers have dried up, non-doms and the rich are leaving the UK in droves and property landlords have been selling up partly due to the Renters Rights Act and the abolition of Section 21 ‘no fault evictions'. Chancellor Rachel Reeves announced a new tax surcharge on rental income profits in her budget, which sees the tax burden rise to record levels. Buy-to-let landlords will pay a tax rate two percentage points higher than the basic and higher rates of tax from April 2027. Watch full video here - https://youtu.be/O38dvXPp22k There were a raft of hikes including a mansion tax on properties worth more than £2 million, mileage charge on EVs. Although successive governments seem to be doing their best to encourage the big corporate landlords and drive small landlords out of business (Section 24, licensing, increased red tape etc.), they still need the estimated 2.8 million private buy-to-let property landlords.

En la edición de hoy del Radar Empresarial examinamos la evolución financiera de EasyJet, que en su cuarto trimestre fiscal ha logrado cifras superiores a las estimadas por los analistas, tanto en beneficios como en ingresos. El resultado operativo anual alcanzó los 703 millones de libras, superando ligeramente los registros del mismo periodo del año anterior, cuando la compañía no llegó a rebasar los 700 millones. Este avance se explica, en gran medida, por el repunte de la facturación, que se elevó hasta los 3.600 millones de libras, un incremento interanual del 9 %, porcentaje que también se refleja en el acumulado del ejercicio. De esta forma, se confirman las previsiones que la aerolínea había adelantado en julio, asegurando que factores como el coste del combustible o las huelgas no tendrían un impacto significativo en sus resultados posteriores. El desempeño de EasyJet, así como el de otras aerolíneas de bajo coste, está estrechamente ligado a los periodos vacacionales. Mediante la eliminación de ciertos servicios y el aprovechamiento más eficiente de recursos —especialmente del combustible— estas compañías han contribuido a abaratar los desplazamientos aéreos, facilitando que más personas puedan viajar largas distancias por tarifas reducidas. Mirando hacia el futuro, EasyJet aspira a alcanzar 450 millones de libras en beneficios antes de impuestos para 2030, un objetivo que pretende cumplir ampliando su presencia en distintos mercados. En el caso de España, la aerolínea prevé aumentar de forma notable su capacidad, con 6,3 millones de asientos adicionales distribuidos en más de 35.000 vuelos. La operativa de la empresa en este país también estuvo marcada por el acuerdo alcanzado con el sindicato USO en agosto, lo que llevó a la desconvocatoria de la huelga de tripulantes después de que EasyJet aceptara elevar el salario base un 22 % este año, junto con nuevos incrementos para los dos siguientes ejercicios. Sin embargo, tanto EasyJet como Ryanair se enfrentan a un nuevo reto competitivo. Se trata de Jet2.com, que el pasado 13 de noviembre comunicó la apertura de una nueva base en el aeropuerto de Gatwick. Desde allí operará 29 rutas, once de las cuales conectarán con ciudades españolas, lo que supondrá la incorporación de 465.000 asientos adicionales entre Londres y diversos aeropuertos de España.

In this week's show: The UK and Channel Islands regional operator Blue Islands ceases trading and cancels flights; Jet2 is to offer flights from Gatwick for the first time; and a maintenance error led to the overrun of an American 737 at Dallas/Fort Worth last year.    In the military segment: The U.S. Air Force Chief of Staff confirms the F-47 next-generation fighter jet will take its first flight in 2028.    We'll also give you some more details about our 600th show which is going to take place in May 2026. Spaces are running out quickly so be sure to let us know if you plan on coming. Nev will give us an update later.    We are extending the competition for another week with a fantastic prize to give away – Nik will tell you all about that later in the show.    And we have another cracking Retro Airline Ad Of The Week segment which will take us all back down memory lane.   You can get in touch with us all at : WhatsApp +447446975214 Email podcast@planetalkinguk.com or comment in our chatroom on YouTube.

Welcome back to another episode of Upside at the EUVC Podcast, where Dan Bowyer, Mads Jensen of SuperSeed and Lomax from Outsized Ventures unpack what's happening in European tech and venture capital.This week: The UK lands $150B of US pledges and 120,000 Nvidia GPUs—can London turn its AI hype into substance? NATO on edge after Russian incursions across Poland and Denmark. Are we witnessing an AI bubble, or just the infrastructure wave of the century?

✈️ Yesterday, George & Gayatri Galloway were detained at Gatwick Airport by UK counter-terrorism police under “hostile activity” legislation. Their phones and computers were seized. Tonight, George gives his full account of what happened, why it matters, and what it means for free speech, dissent, and democracy in Britain.Alongside this shocking story, we turn to Gaza, Palestine, and the war that grinds on. Netanyahu remains a curse on the region, Starmer is now the worst-rated PM ever as Labour's conference opens, Blair's name re-emerges in a Gaza “peace” deal, and Russia warns NATO as the Ukraine war escalates.

Nigel Farage has unveiled his most radical immigration plan yet – scrapping indefinite leave to remain for migrants – in a move designed to reverse the so-called 'Boriswave.' James Heale explains how this would affect hundreds of thousands already living in the UK, why the party claims it could save £250 billion, and whether any of it is remotely feasible.Meanwhile, Keir Starmer has formally recognised Palestine as a state, a decision hailed by many Labour MPs but criticised by others as diplomatically reckless. And, to round off a busy political Monday morning, the government has approved a second runway at Gatwick – but will it really boost growth before the next election?Lucy Dunn speaks to James Heale and Tim Shipman.

Joe had a recent vigilante incident involving some teenage skateboarders that he really wants to tell David about. But before he can do that, David is shocked to learn that Joe used to skateboard in his youth - so that gets discussed immediately along with roller blading, roller discos and yo-yoing. David also tells Joe about some very quirky characters he came across in Totness the other day, before we finally get back to Joe's vigilante story. And as if all that wasn't enough, David finishes the episode by telling Joe about the time he had a run-in with some Gatwick airport counter-terrorism police. It was all very dramatic indeed!

I can't quite believe it, but here we are — the 800th episode of the Tough Girl Podcast! In this special solo episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes for a personal catch-up and reflection on everything that's happened so far in 2025 — from January through to August. I talk about what life has looked like lately (yes, still living at home with my parents!), working part-time at AIM Health, the adventures I've been on, the challenges I've faced, and the exciting things coming up next. This episode is a bit of everything: gear chat (flat-lay photos and a new Atom Pack!), health updates (peri-menopause, gut health, strength training, and more), financial planning (Patreon, pensions, broken laptops!), plus reflections on my time walking the English Camino, Snowdonia Slate Trail, and tackling the GR20 in Corsica — which was honestly tougher than the Marathon des Sables. I'm also talking about my motivations for taking on the GR10, what I've learned in 10 years of podcasting, and why the mission — to increase the amount of female role models in the media especially in relation to adventure and physical challenges— is stronger than ever. Thank you for being here with me on this journey. Whether you've listened from the start or are just finding the show now, I'm so incredibly grateful. This is a celebration of us — of consistency, resilience, growth, and dreaming big.

//The Wire//2300Z July 30, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: EARTHQUAKE STRIKES WESTERN PACIFIC, TRIGGERING TSUNAMI CONCERNS. AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL OUTAGE CAUSES LONDON AIRPORTS TO GROUND FLIGHTS. WHITE HOUSE ANNOUNCES NEW AI-DRIVEN HEALTHCARE INITIATIVE.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE----- -International Events-Pacific: A major earthquake was reported yesterday afternoon off the coast of Russia's Kamchatka Peninsula, reaching an estimated 8.8M and becoming tied for the 5th strongest earthquake recorded since records began in the 1960's. Due to this earthquake's severity, Tsunami Advisories were issued for most of the Pacific Rim, to include Hawaii, Alaska, and most of the American west coast. These concerns prompted mass evacuations for millions of people seeking refuge on higher ground. As of this morning, tsunami waves did hit Russia and Japan, though minimal damage was reported. No tsunami materialized in Hawaii or the west coast.United Kingdom: This morning the airspace over most of England was closed due to a technical issue at an air traffic control center in Stanwick. Aircraft at Stansted, Gatwick, and Heathrow were grounded for about 4 hours while the issue was being resolved.Analyst Comment: Details on the outage are hard to verify, however this outage occurred at the same facility that was involved in the infamous outage at Heathrow Airport in 2023. This has caused much fingerpointing and consternation among airlines due to the lost revenue as a result of the outage.United Kingdom: Data security concerns remain paramount as the effects of the Online Safety Act become more clear. Most websites are now locked down and everything from Wikipedia to medical publications have been affected by the act.Analyst Comment: Though it's tough to verify (and possibly fake), at least one user reported that they had to show identification papers for using a food delivery app. While this testimony can't be independently verified, what is true is that the crackdown on the concept of privacy continues to grow. Several politicians have mentioned the possibility of targeting VPN users who try to evade scanning their identity documents and their face to access most of the internet. Meanwhile, children are using certain video games to bypass the face-scanning requirements.Most of the people who wrote the Online Safety Act are of the Atari generation, and do not understand how good the graphics are in most modern video games. Hyper-realistic video games which use motion-capture technology to put the faces of real actors in the game have been extremely effective at tricking apps and websites. Most of the games that rely on this technology also have modes or settings menus for customizing characters...which allow users to strike funny poses with the character on screen...this providing the realistic head and mouth movement that is used by most AI-driven websites requiring a face scan.-HomeFront-Virginia: This afternoon an arson attack was reported in Danville, at the offices of Showcase Magazine. Local authorities have identified the attacker as Shotsie Michael Buck Hayes, who was arrested a short time after the attack. Locals have stated he was targeting Lee Vogler, a local city councilman for the town of Danville. The attacker reportedly broke into the councilman's office, and doused him in gasoline before setting him on fire on the street outside. Vogler has so far survived the attack, and is currently hospitalized with severe burns.Analyst Comment: Locals state that the attack was not due to a political issue, but rather a personal dispute as the attacker and victim knew each other. Whether or not this is true is anyone's guess. Nevertheless, this kind of high-profile (and brutal) attack vector does not occur that often in a small town such as this, so the details that are hard to verify now may become more clear over time.Wash

Why do most recruitment companies stall at 10 to 20 people, while others scale to 100+ across continents? In this episode, you'll hear directly from someone who's done it. STR Group is a family of specialist recruitment brands focused on STEM sectors. As co-founder, Clive Hutchings has spent over two decades growing the business to more than 120 staff across the UK, Europe, and the US—all while staying profitable, adaptable, and values-driven. In this interview, Clive breaks down what it really takes to build a multi-brand, international recruitment group, the leadership philosophy behind STR's culture, and the gritty truths behind scaling a business beyond yourself. Episode Outline and Highlights [3:05] The early days: how Clive started in recruitment and his story of practicing his pitch in front of a mirror in the office. [11:37] The operational and leadership shifts needed to grow from 10 to 100+ employees [19:19] Why many recruitment founders plateau—and how to avoid it [21:09] Discussion on the best approach to train a new recruiter. [27:33] The value of having a support network around you. [32:50] What is the formula for knowing when to make your next hire? [40:00] Impact of AI: “Sales people being more sustainable, resourcing people less so.” [41:45] Clive reveals their tech stack and how AI impacts their current operations. [45:00] The relevance of cold calling in the age of AI. [52:00] Big differences between hiring in the US and the UK. [1:02:10] Learnings on expanding globally. [1:07:00] Culture and mantra that work. Leadership That Scales One of the biggest takeaways from this conversation is the importance of evolving your role as a founder. Clive credits much of STR's growth to the fact that he didn't try to do everything himself. Instead, he and his co-founder took on complementary leadership roles, allowing each to focus on their strengths while building out a business that could scale beyond them. If you're stuck juggling billing, management, and strategy, this is your sign to rethink your leadership structure. Building a scalable firm means building scalable leadership, and that starts with letting go of being the bottleneck. He also elaborated on the following: 1. Multifaceted Leadership Structure 2. Team Composition and Talent Strategy 3. High Energy and Personal Drive 4. Resilience Through Early-Stage Challenges 5. Realistic Growth Mindset Clive's success as a leader came from building a balanced team, maintaining high personal energy, fostering a resilient and realistic culture, and adapting roles and structures to match the stage of the business. Decision Factors When to Make Your Next Hire With Clive's success in scaling his team globally, I wanted to pick his brains on his thought process when deciding to make a new hire. As a recruitment business owner, this is a critical decision to make, as doing it too slowly can impede your business's growth, while doing it too rapidly can lead to longer-term problems that cost more to fix. Clive shared the following decision factors: Strategic Forecasting & Business Planning - Hiring plans are based on quarterly forecasts developed by each brand's leadership. Critical Mass & Team Size Considerations - A certain headcount is needed to reach operational momentum, but hiring must be sustainable. Smaller teams (e.g.,
