@tonyblackburn Perhaps you can complain and get a refund! Poor customer service, lousy food etc! Could come out in credit hopefully

[England's Barmy Army 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🎺 @TheBarmyArmy]

This was quite the gesture ❤️

The England team wore different shirts to highlight the confusion caused by dementia.

@englandcricket Fantastic catch

[NHS Million @NHSMillion]

NHS staff are not failing, they are being failed.

Please RT if you understand the difference.

OT,s have a great wealth of knowledge and experience to help in many situations. Well worth tuning in.

@thismorning in later life I originated @supportbrighto1 Bright Old Sparks quiz & Puzzle books for loved ones with dementia. Get to 70 if not now when?

[Gill Ashby @GillAshby]

Do you know someone with Alzheimer’s?

[Gill Ashby @GillAshby]

Occupational Therapists generally know their patients and have their best interests at heart.

[Michael Rosen 💙💙🎓🎓 NICE 爷爷 @MichaelRosenYes]

I said to one OT at the rehab that I didn't think I would be able to do a show to 100s of children in a theatre again.
She said I would.
This year, I did a show to 100s at the Queen Elizabeth Hall.
A woman with her kids asked me to sign a book.
It's me, she said.
It was the OT.

Any reason why TheHundred can't describe a 5-ball over as a 'handie', 'hand', or 'handfull'?
@philtuffnell @ZalzCricket @BBCTMS
Naturally, when you bring two 'handies' together you get a 10-ball 'Clap'!

@weirb4 Traveled to Norway for this door

[Gill Ashby @GillAshby]

Good point as somehow I doubt it !

[Gill Ashby @GillAshby]

A good point which appears to be heading for the long grass.

An old social services hand poses a very good question (perfectly) via ⁦@Telegraph⁩

Why @BBC #Wimbledon2022 has Kyrgios not been reprimanded for swearing
