@Gibboanxious Got rid of Netflix when they cancelled it.

@Lookinupatstars Keep them. When I was a young adult and went back to my parents to visit I loved reading my old picture books particularly when I was having a hard time emotionally. Such a comfort. Now my daughter has them all. Literary heirlooms. 💕📚

@LBC @RachelSJohnson I don’t even get paid £2500 a month. Are these people for real? £600 disposable income a week?! NOT ENOUGH?! What most people would give to have £100 disposable income a month right now.

Looking for a Christmas miracle!

A group of local people in Sherwood Nottingham urgently need an architect/planning expert to help us oppose plans for a 3 storey block of flats being built behind our houses. HELP! 🙏🏻

@InPostUK I have 3 parcels from Vinted purchases missing in action with you. I’ve had another had to be cancelled. What is going on? It’s clothes for my daughter that I’m waiting on.

@Sue_Cowley This card says “To baby Polly Happy Birthday lots of love”. Baby Polly is one of her baby dolls. They have a lot of birthdays! 🥰

[Becky @MissSmith7654]

@Sue_Cowley Ahh that’s my daughter ☺️ She absolutely loves mark making. Any available piece of paper in my house (or wall or furniture 😅) is testament to that. I absolutely love this stage, the way they discuss what they’re writing and drawing as they do it. So amazing. 🥰

[Becky @MissSmith7654]

@thepetitioner @Sue_Cowley This has genuinely blown my mind.

[Becky @MissSmith7654]

@Sue_Cowley @Ofstednews Can’t believe I’ve been letting my F2 class just write before they know every sound and letting my own 3 year old write things like this birthday card. I’ll confiscate all paper and writing tools immediately until they have the proper knowledge. 😅🤨

@GillianKeegan @NickGibbUK Nick Gibb teaches phonics now too? Watching him teach phonics to EYFS and year one children would be a fantastic CPD opportunity. Is he available for school visits?

Proudest mum in the world today 🥰✊🏻

@RogersHistory Lost for words. What a gain for the teaching profession that he isn’t at the ‘coal face’ anymore.
Children are losing more from the way this government has underfunded and toyed with education than they ever will from missing a few days from this strike.

If you went to primary school in the 1980s and you woke up with a dusting of snow, the timetable would be cleared and you’d write snow-inspired poems all morning! ⛄️

@MissStathamx I did 0.6 for one year when returning from maternity leave and then went to 0.8 which I’m still doing now (a year and a term later). Happy to answer any questions 😊

[Becky @MissSmith7654]

@NCT_Buses stranded with my three year old at Gedling country park again. The 15.21 number 46 hasn’t showed. We’ve been here since 15.15.

[Becky @MissSmith7654]

@FelicityHannah We were £500 in credit with Shell but they wanted to increase our monthly DD to £313. Called and told me I could switch to a variable DD as projected monthly was £180. Our projected annual usage was way less than £313 a month too. Such a scam.

[Becky @MissSmith7654]

@MrDanielBuck Smaller classes. Better relationships with children and more time to effectively teach them so less planning time needed. Smaller class sizes would transform primary education.

[Becky @MissSmith7654]

@joeb_EY Mine breastfed back to sleep but started sleeping through at about 2 years (a few nights a week). I weaned her at 2.8yrs as I was so tired it was impacting my whole life. She now will be settled by dad at night. It’s tough but time and gentle change in nighttime caregiver helps.

@EstherOConnor5 🙋🏼‍♀️ I also have a toddler so I just pick up conkers on autopilot now even when I’m on my own. But who doesn’t love a beautiful, shiny conker and autumn leaves?
