a few cars ago ( three or four cars ago it was scratched by a dust cart)
and the dust section of Manchester CC - looked at the video and GPS route and said conclusively - "not us mate" it wasnt even their day for collections
I thanked them prettily for "reaching out" - going the extra mile
It should mean 'prod' or encourage vigourously - as in reaching out to the OAPs over pension credit
It's right to be angry when someone that is hindering says they are reaching out. They are portraying themselves as helpful when they are not. This fact is easily recognizable when the person is insincere. It's more challenging when the person sincerely believes they are helpful while they are actually hindering.
The phrase itself comes from the idea of physically extending one's arm to offer help or comfort. It conveys a genuine attempt to connect, support, or assist someone. When used correctly, it can be a warm and caring expression.

There's something in that. A good example is when this government and the previous governments 'reached out' to pensioners who weren't claiming the pension credit they were entitled to. It's a way of saying "it's very difficult but we're trying everything we can to get them to apply" when in reality the government should already be able to identify who these people are.
Reaching out should be a bit more than just contacting, but unfortunately too many organisations use the term 'reaching out' when advertising/emailing/writing to would be a more meaningful term.
It should really be 'reachin' ; 🙂
Where it began
I can't begin to know when
But then I know it's growin' strong
Was in the spring
And spring became the summer
Who'd have believe you'd come along?
Hands
Touchin' hands
Reachin' out
Touching me, touchin' you
Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined
To believe they never would
But now I look at the night
And it don't seem so lonely
We fill it up with only two
And when I hurt
Hurtin' runs off my shoulders
How can I hurt when holdin' you?
Warm
Touchin' warm
Reachin' out
Touchin' me, touchin' you
Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
I've been inclined
To believe they never would, oh, no, no
Sweet Caroline
Good times never seemed so good
Sweet Caroline
I believe they never could
