So happy! At last, live exports have been banned from the UK. Great news.

Can anyone recommend an email client which enables readers to 'jump' to a newsletter item from a contents list at the top? Not sendy or mail chimp. Thanks!

@crstanley_rsrch Keeping fingers crossed for her recovery! Don't lose hope! Did the vet have any advice?

[Christina R Stanley @crstanley_rsrch]

Reaching out to my professional network for help. My dog Panda suffered a fibrocartilagenous embolism on 21st December, paralysed in hindlegs. 12 weeks on she's walking but still can't control bladder/bowels. I'm getting desperate, any ideas? Please rt/share with vet friends!

[Rachel Howle @RachHowle]

@JohnLewisRetail why can't customers ring individual stores anymore? Apparently you're prioritising walk-in customers. So there's not one person available to answer a phone?! I've been told the only way to contact a store 213 miles away is to go there. For real?!

[Rachel Howle @RachHowle]

I shouldn't be spending time and money returning YOUR faulty product before I can get a replacement. Any other retailer would just send a replacement item. Why can't you? YOU'RE JOHN LEWIS! Expect better.

[Rachel Howle @RachHowle]

@johnlewishelp, after 45 min on the phone to you we established the only way to exchange the faulty baby monitor you sent was to either print a return label (I don't own a printer) and take it to a parcel shop or take it to a John Lewis store (2 hour round trip). (Continued)...

[Rachel Howle @RachHowle]

What are people meant to do if they don't drive? Would encourage you to think about being more inclusive. I only need one charger cable replacing. Why can't you just post it to me? I have a guarantee on this product. Send me the part I need please.

Don't fall over don't fall over don't fall over... Nailed it.

It might have been the longest masters ever due to pandemics, babies etc. but I got there eventually! Officially a Master of #SciComm @SciCommsUWE @UWEBristol.

I'm doing a presentation on the social and economic barriers preventing people from low socioeconomic backgrounds from accessing #highereducation and #STEM research careers, and would like to hear some examples from real people. Go.
