@iproposethis Yes day! Hilarious. But be careful, bc your kids will then want one 😆.

@SingaporeAir are you able to update on progress to get kiwis home by setting up touch down solution for UK passengers in transit? I’m meant to be flying 31 Dec on SQ317 / SQ281 - noticed the plane is now the same right through which is good sign! would be the BEST Xmas news 🤞

[Angela Burke @angeeburke]

@chrishipkins were in the same situation. Followed all the rules, secured voucher, months of planning, winded up our lives here, packed and ready to go. The trauma of this experience can’t be underestimated. We have a voucher - just need short 6hr extension!

[Shiwon @Shiwon_NZ_Ao]

@chrishipkins Can you please confirm that you’re not going to do anything for the kiwis that trusted you to hold up your end of the bargain. The fact that @MBIEgovtnz can dismiss us out of hand, publicly? They don’t care we’re homeless by the toss of a coin? 1/4

[Angela Burke @angeeburke]

@chrishipkins please help! Our family is now stuck in UK dt transit bans. Shocked MIQ won’t change voucher by 25mins to next day. Would be in hotel same amount of time. You have duty of care, but instead our family is being sent to back of queue to compete for vouchers in March!

@hermitageparkps asked what Branan enjoyed during lockdown - it was definitely #DrawWithRob. Thanks @RobBiddulph !!

@hermitageparkps in a bush, near a bench, with a cage around the tree you’ll find a book.

[Angela Burke @angeeburke]

@edinhelp after the lovely day yesterday the bins in Leith Links are overflowing. Could you pls pass request onto cleansing team to add to their rota. Another nice day so the pile will grow. Thanks 🙏

[Angela Burke @angeeburke]

@hermitageparkps Branan was delighted to find this book this morning 😀

@Emma_Seith The boy who drew dragons by Andy Shepard should appeal to both of them. It’s a fab series with illustrations on most pages 😀

Earth day feels more pertinent than ever this year. And summed up beautifully in this poem.

Rest.
Breathe.
Recover.
Heal –

And we will do the same. #EarthDay2020 https://t.co/RnQM0FQpD4

REALLY puts the challenges of 2 metre #PhysicalDistancing into perspective in cities, and shows why we need to create more space. Well done @theurbangeog. #COVID19 https://t.co/oS2CWw0Tx2

[Angela Burke @angeeburke]

Can we *please* make this happen in Scotland too! @NicolaSturgeon @theSNP @SpokesLothian

[Brent Toderian @BrentToderian]

BREAKING: In a BIG move of national leadership, the ⁦@jacindaardern⁩ @JulieAnneGenter⁩ New Zealand Govt will fund 90% of the cost to local councils of pop-up cycleways & footpath extensions for safe & healthy #PhysicalDistancing during #COVID19! https://t.co/0ySCyJu9Ho

@hermitageparkps Branans taking the castle challenge from the P2 learning grid today very seriously. Catapult made and now we’ve got a Castle under attack!
