.@SouthernRailUK why on earth have you put a four carriage train on the 724 from Carshalton Beeches? The driver just said ‘sorry but we’ve got what we’ve got’. On today of all days. Unexceptable

@VeoliaUKHelp your staff received a abuse and threats this morning from two men while trying to to their job. Please contact me if you take action and want more details.

@mysouthldn It’s nowhere near Croydon.

I’m on daily weather watch and I’m not impressed with what lies ahead for Sunday.

Really?! It’s been saying sunny for days.

For someone who works in comms, I’ve done a terrible job of promoting my sponsorship page for running @LondonMarathon in aid of @BowelResearch

Shame on you @marksandspencer - ripping of the ideas of small businesses is really not cool #Hypocrites

Chatted about 80s films with our 13yo last night. Watched her confused expression as I described how Desperately Seeking Susan is about a stalker to steals the identity of a woman who communicates with her bf via newspapers as there are no mobile phones.

@jonathanneill Congratulations!

Having been a mum for nearly 14 years now, I’ve perfected the best place for hiding presents from curious kids - in their own bedrooms on top of the wardrobe. Baffles my daughter every year!

Why, for the love of god would you make an antibiotic for kids aniseed flavour?! I’m now covered in aniseed vomit 🤮

Just collected my bike from servicing using the Govt voucher scheme. Not been on a bike for ten years since someone drove into the back of me on my way to work. A bit wobbly but it’s as easy as

Serious frustration at home this evening as we can’t get a straight answer on how long we need to self isolate for. Conflicting comms in emails and texts. Test & Trace don’t know, neither do 119 and I’ve been told to email an address that will take up to 72 hours to answer!

My little boy is in the garden as I work and has taught himself how to use the swing. I can hear him commentating how to do it “stretch your legs out, aaaaand back”. Think my heart will burst 💕

@SarahEHBurr This is where we need a sad not like response on Twitter.

[V Harrison-Cook MBE @VHC88]

@SarahEHBurr It’s desperately sad. It’s fear, not only at night but at all times of the day on the street & public spaces. I’ve been followed numerous times, once even to work & street harassed by one individual for months. I’m angry I have to teach my daughter how to keep safe.

@sugarfloat So so good! 👏
