I've been rather quiet on Twitter recently. The last 18 months have been a bit of a bumpy ride for me but I took advantage of the situation to write the book I've always wanted to write: https://t.co/qeIY0VvsPm

@ShesfromWales @ThePhotoHour @StormHour @NWalesSocial Beautiful. Happy Christmas x

[Alison Hughes @AHcreattrans]

@ShesfromWales @NWalesSocial @northwalesmag @OnlyNorthWales @NorthWalesWalks Oh yes. I think I got it from my grandson this week and have had a quiet weekend. Hoping to be back to full operation tomorrow x

[Alison Hughes @AHcreattrans]

@ShesfromWales @NWalesSocial @northwalesmag @OnlyNorthWales @NorthWalesWalks Thank you. I think we’re going in the right direction x

@PolkaDotScot @bennettrun Well done Alicja

[Alison Hughes @AHcreattrans]

@magic8runner He’s been in the local FB page too :-) Seems to be well known here

[Alison Hughes @AHcreattrans]

@culturetrans @StanfordsTravel That sounds like an interesting book. I must investigate

Seth Godin @ThisIsSethsBlog was kind enough to send this msg on translation, AI & humans to SFT's #UETF2023 https://t.co/uOFCDtpJLA in Luxembourg last week. Key takeaway: time to raise the bar. @CarbonAlmanac @fit_ift @FIT_Europe @SFTfr @ITIUK @kvashee

@PolkaDotScot The Art Galléries and Transport Museum. Kids love them

[Alison Hughes @AHcreattrans]

@METMeetings I really enjoyed the chat tonight

[Alison Hughes @AHcreattrans]

@Babeliane @Lighthousetrsl8 Exactly. They’re just following the money. When gluten free was a big ‘fad’ they were happy to cater.

[Alison Hughes @AHcreattrans]

@Babeliane @Lighthousetrsl8 Vegans are really well catered for in the UK. At least two of the big cafe chains discontinued their gluten free sandwiches and replaced them with a vegan range

[Alison Hughes @AHcreattrans]

@Babeliane @Lighthousetrsl8 I’m getting increasingly frustrated by restaurants who no longer mark GF on their menus now that it’s easier to cater for vegans. I can’t see why they can’t cater for both. There are some good chains here where I eat fairly regularly.

@BethTranslates @ChemXlator @AlinaCincan She’s adorable

[Alison Hughes @AHcreattrans]

@PolkaDotScot Oh no, what a pain. I hope it wasn’t too long before you got back home.

[Alison Hughes @AHcreattrans]

It was my first #Scotnet workshop for a while and it didn’t disappoint. Still as informative, entertaining and well organised as ever. It was great to see so many friends and colleagues again after so long. Many thanks to the committee for all the hard work.

.@ITIScotNet summer workshop in Edzell has been great fun – a weekend of food and champagne. We Scotnetters like the finer things in life… Thank you @translator_mike and @AHcreattrans for the great presentations!
