@DrMichaelLoy Ooh how lovely! Are these out yet?

@GirtonCollege Love having this on my wall - thank you Peter Sparks and @GirtonCollege for sharing!

@CherylTBarton "servire" literally means to serve like a slave. It is used in heraldry (see University of Kent or the HMS Neptune's mottoes) in a religious sense like serving god which certainly works but I would say iuvare is a bit more medical: it means to help/aid/support.

@xhocka If you haven't solved your problem yet - Whitaker's Words is one of the best tools https://t.co/MO34WcAgxS. Let me know if that doesn't help you.

@CherylTBarton @Twitter @Google "Curare est servire" might be what you're looking for. If you want serve in a less military way: "curare est iuvare".
Hope this helps!

@JenBartram When you've got a few bites (inevitably), original source mint shower gel is really soothing and I find toothpaste works on the really itchy ones. When it dries it created a physical barrier against itching. Hope this helps!

Delighted that the BBC sounds app works in Crete. Driving back from a day on a palm tree lined beach with a very happy driver listening to #TMS #bbccricket

@language_drops Yes please! This would be excellent for my students.

[Alex Sorgo @AlexMSorgo]

@language_drops Loving the app UI! Any chance you are developing Latin Drops?

@jamieasquith29 @ofo_bicycleUK @DavidLloydUK @HIExpress They also missed out @GirtonCollege making it even harder for students to make it to town from the farthest out college.

@Logitech @SamsungUK, after updating Galaxy Tab S it connects with Logitech K380 but won't let it work as a keyboard. K380 works fine with all other samsung devices. How do I fix this?

@michael_loy93 @classarch You've got to be kidding.
