@virginmedia been trying to speak with an adviser for the last 10 mins, cannot get past the automated part of the call. Still trying to sort issues. Please can someone help me?
@virginmedia Hi. This is turning into a farce. I have probably spent upwards of 3 hours talking to multiple people and being told different things by each. Is there a way to speak with someone regarding this? I have an 11 page transcript!
@virginmedia we took out a new TV package expecting to have sky sports included but following set up today this doesn't seem to be the case. Can someone possibly help?
@AsdaCommunity we are looking to get in touch with the Dumbarton store team re some support for our local cause. Can you tell me how I do this? Thanks!
Very proud of our Young Sports Ambassadors who represented the school impeccably at Hampden Park today. The department are looking forward to working with Leah and Cole to enhance the opportunities available for our young people.
@GCH_Charity@ScotlandNT@RHCGlasgow@NHSGGC Was on one of the wards when the team came in. Straight into one of the rooms, they were not phased in the slightest, so happy and chatting to the kids -brilliant!
NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde has introduced a test for every newborn baby that takes less than a minute but can detect a range of potentially serious conditions before the babies become unwell.

In 1922, a group of scientists went to the Toronto General hospital where diabetic children were kept in wards, often 50 or more at a time. Most of them were comatose and dying from diabetic keto-acidosis. Others were being treated by being placed on an extremely strict diet, which inevitably led to starvation.
These children were essentially in their death beds, awaiting what was at that time, certain death. The scientists moved swiftly and proceeded to inject the children with a new purified extract of insulin.
As they began to inject the last comatose child, the first one to be injected began to wake up. Then one by one, all the children awoke from their diabetic comas. A room that was full of death and gloom, suddenly became a place of joy and hope.
In the early 1920s, Frederick Banting and Charles Best discovered insulin under John Macleod at the University of Toronto. With the help of James Collip, insulin was purified, making it available to successfully treat diabetes. Both Banting and Macleod earned Nobel Prizes for their work in 1923.
In the same year, Banting, Collip, and Best decided to sell the insulin patent to the University of Toronto for $1. Banting famously went on to say, "Insulin does not belong to me, it belongs to the world."

Some collaborative working during feeding tube awareness week. Gastrostomy and stoma CNS Team along with the Nutrition CNS team highlighting the amazing impact feeding tubes can have on our wonderful patients and their families! @redfernjam@RHCGlasgow
It's #FeedingTubeAwarenessWeek 💜
A lot of patients rely on feeding tubes for nutrition and hydration, which is as important as the medicines they are prescribed.
