@s1eve Pleased you have a diagnosis and treatment plan. Hope it improves quickly.

[Ann Clucas @annclucas]

@s1eve Ooh, that sounds nasty.

@s1eve Our three descriptions of quality of baking are OK for guests, OK for family and OK with custard. The family always cheer when I inadvertently make the last as cake with custard is their favourite.

@Suchmo83 Turning Pages is an adults’ phonics programme used by Read Easy and Shannon Trust to teach adults and I have found it excellent for tutoring teenagers with reading difficulties or delay. Well worth looking at. Available from Shannon Trust.

@DanMundayNG @bettymunday That really is a tricky combo. Will be praying that the 7 year old has a fun day and the inspection sees the fab support children get at your school.

@pastortilley @uk_timwilson @PaulDistilled Also, a musician who listens to the congregation and plays sympathetically with them rather than dogmatically leading them - sometimes people are used to singing slower or faster than the musician.

@pastortilley @uk_timwilson @PaulDistilled Sometimes it helps to teach songs. Also singing songs with a clear chorus with an easy tune helps people feel part of the worship and is helpful for those with reading difficulties or English as a an additional language. Songs with bridges are tricky for those not in the know.

@uk_timwilson Useful and accurate. Thank you.

@PeteGreig Give, not grieve!

[Ann Clucas @annclucas]

@PeteGreig A lady called Miss Willetts who faithfully ran a Crusaders group every week near my home was responsible for awakening my faith. I grieve thanks for her loving care.

@Puzzledbyadream I think I am almost the opposite to neurodivergent and do not have mental health difficulties (although several family members who are neurodivergent and also family members with mental health issues).

@FrankOnTheRadio Worcester pearmain apples that grew in the garden and were stored on a shelf just outside the kitchen in a lean to shelter.

@DanMundayNG @haveigotnews Exactly what we said!

@redcurrant101 I think, if possible, having choices so that the group work types can do some of that with a possibility of opting out and doing something quiet on your own works well. Easier for some subjects, I guess.

[Ann Clucas @annclucas]

@samhwilson Absolutely. If the church wants quality people who are going to do the job for some years or a whole career, they need to give the sort of pay that can support families and pay for somewhere decent to live

[Ann Clucas @annclucas]

@s1eve Hope all goes smoothly and well.

@carolspringett5 @AliCampbell_68 Oh, I had not realised that you were THE Carol Springett. How lovely. Yes, we are still youth working too.

@drybrarian @dcsandbrook Just received a lovely text from our grandson thanking us for this book we gave to him for his birthday. Sounds like he will love it.
