Dear tweeps, having a wee break from Twitter, I'm sure you'll manage fine without me.
On my return I will prune the number of you wonderful folk I follow: you're good people but I am struggling to pay decent attention to the good things you say/wish me to read. #readtheevidence

Another top day with the fab folks at roguevillage in @AWalledGarden despite the epic weather ⚡☔ we had lots of slime making fun 👌 xx https://t.co/QcTisl79YQ

[Alan Fisher @Pwellfish]

First rasps of the year following this week's downpour + sun: feels great to return to #NWEdinburgh cave knowing the family have been provided for. Time for some firewatching as per @41ElaineS [apologies to @edwardmonkton]

[Alan Fisher @Pwellfish]

Would like to read some evidence on the effectiveness of #restorativejustice for all stakeholders please. Can someone point me towards some British work on this please, thank you.

We are in the middle of a data revolution – but are we equipped for it? The data science guide will equip decision makers and the public with the tools they need to start conversations about the quality of data. https://t.co/dNOdASx08v

Thanks for asking, but not on this occasion: #semiprofessionalgrandad

[Church of Scotland @churchscotland]

Could you be our next Chief Officer? We are embarking on an ambitious programme of major reforms as part of a three-year Radical Action Plan and seek to appoint someone to help us implement these changes. Please see our application pack: https://t.co/OCRJx9p7tG

and if you worked there or have another memory of the place you'd like to share, perhaps you'd contact @WghLothian to find a way of capturing & sharing it: a postcard, a training programme, a memory to add to the 'WGH150 blog'

#OTD in 1867, after a meeting of the Parochial Board of St Cuthbert’s, permission was given to erect a Poorhouse for the Parish. This became Craigleith Poorhouse, which later became Craigleith Military Hospital, and in 1932 became the Western General Hospital!

[Joseph Rowntree Foundation @jrf_uk]

Everyone in our society should have a decent and affordable place they can call home. But our consistent failure to build new social housing has locked people out of our housing market. Its time to put this right! Great piece by @tnewtondunn in @TheSun today.

[Granton Youth @GrantonYouth]

Take a look at our 2019 summer programme and information on how to get involved! 😊

And because #KidsCantWait, we're in Glasgow this morning with @jrf_uk #TalkingAboutPoverty. Building the collective will to solve poverty needs us to think about it in a different way - that it's here, it's now, it's not the fault of many individuals and that it CAN be changed.

So @Tesco say that they could remove plastic packaging tomorrow if it was the right thing to do. I think it’s the right thing to do. I reckon @itsanitarani thinks it’s the right thing to do. What do YOU think? #WarOnPlastic #OurPlasticFeedback

My 9 year old son suggests that all schools in @Edinburgh_CC adopt ‘waste free wednesdays’ like @WardiePS. #WarOnPlastic

"We're custodians of this place for the generations to come" - we want to know what you think of our bold #CityCentreTransformation proposals. Have a look and let us know what you think - it's the last week to have your say: https://t.co/o2uq63ISse
