@nick_forbes @LizARees Where to begin with this one

Props 2u Nick I’ll never forget ur ‘I got married to my husband that’s why I wasn’t at the Pride event’video ❤️

Man on train was annoyingly peering over at my laptop screen. ‘Keep going!’ he said, ‘just think, you might get it published one day.’ I gave him the Death Stare of a woman who has published ten books.

@LNER The corridors between carriages are completely blocked- impassable to even get to the food bar. Never mind if anything goes wrong. Can’t be safe, not really acceptable and nothing to drink for nearly 2 more hours. Great £80 spent.

@LNER am on the 2.59 from Newcastle to London it’s a bit of a nightmare due to Aberdeen cancelled train. Please say there will be a trolley service from York...?! Thank you

It's #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek Just a thought - maybe give the "Worst Dressed at the BAFTAS' feature a miss? Everyone was just trying to look their best & you have no idea what issues or insecurities they might have, Also, it's 2019 FFS. You know better than to print this shit.

@janeerobinson97 @GMBCouncil I’m so sorry to hear that Jane. Roger was always very kind and supportive when I was at the Shipley and I know was a good man who worked so hard for Gateshead.

@LizARees I’ve just read reasons to stay alive. It was good- in parts very moving though in other symplistic.

@NewcastleCC how do I report a theft/ask about CCTV in Oxford car park please?

[Amy Barker @amy1177jo]

@BBCLN bit confused about the staircase story it wasn’t news? More an advertising video! Nothing against the firm, just not reporting id expect from BBC
