@oghofer My mother-in-law was a top class flower arranger and dabbled in oil painting.
My father-in-law grew chrysanthemums.
Not a lot of cross over there.

@cesiscribbles Of course there's a higher power - God was standing right there, and God had control of what happened next.

@youryurigoddess @1941crowley I didn't think that was bigotry, except on the part of the fictional family - I thought it was all too realistic.

@LloydsBank @cityalan I don't know about his mum, but I refuse to use online banking, even though I'm capable of it, and using the Post Office is not the same as going into your own bank branch, for heaven's sake!

[Lesley Arrowsmith @arrowsmithlesl1]

@theythem_adam They won't let you in if you aren't wearing a tie!

[Lesley Arrowsmith @arrowsmithlesl1]

@LloydsBank @cityalan They may not be taken lightly, but they are taken with scant regard for the actual customers who use the branches.
I moved from Barclays, who closed the last bank in my town, to Lloyds, thinking they might be better.
Silly me.

@angedemarbre I haven't seen anyone insisting the finale was perfect.

[Lesley Arrowsmith @arrowsmithlesl1]

@Lil_BitofMac Technically, God killed them both - and was fully prepared to kill them both without granting them the wish of a new universe.

@peterrhague In Powsels and Thrums by Alan Garner, he remembers going running with a mathematician from Manchester University, who he liked very much. Then the police ordered AG not to associate with him, but would give no reason.
Then he heard that his friend Alan Turing had died.

[Lesley Arrowsmith @arrowsmithlesl1]

@albiondumsday @peterrhague He was put on trial and sentenced to chemical castration. The government chose to do that.

@lord_vinyl @CameronCorduroy He was a senator. He should have been shown proper respect - and allowed to view the facility, as was his right.

[Lesley Arrowsmith @arrowsmithlesl1]

@lord_vinyl @CameronCorduroy They pepper sprayed a senator.

[Lesley Arrowsmith @arrowsmithlesl1]

@sheen365 @michaelsheen That Raymond Williams lecture was awesomely good.

[Lesley Arrowsmith @arrowsmithlesl1]

@lord_vinyl @CameronCorduroy They pepper sprayed a senator.

[Lesley Arrowsmith @arrowsmithlesl1]

@lord_vinyl @CameronCorduroy If the conditions are so good, why are ICE denying access to people who want to check on that?

[Lesley Arrowsmith @arrowsmithlesl1]

@valmis_001 @CameronCorduroy The idea is that someone becomes ill in detention, so they're released. That way, ICE can deny responsibility when they die from the illness that they picked up in detention.

Israel dropped a bomb on Mona’s home in Mansouri, South Lebanon, today.

Mona is not a fighter.

She is an environmental activist who dedicated her life to protecting endangered sea turtles.

Because of Israel, Mona is now fighting for her life in a hospital bed.

@theiaincameron My mother-in-law was a flower arranger, preparing her entry for a big county show in the Midlands when she became aware of an older chap hovering behind her to see what she was doing. She was quite cross, and turned round to tell him to go away.
It was Prince Phillip, of course.

[Lesley Arrowsmith @arrowsmithlesl1]

@cosmohyde It started with asking questions and hanging out with Lucifer and the guys. Then he chose Lucifer's side in the War in Heaven, and fought in Lucifer's legions (alongside Furfur, according to the 1941 flashback). That's why he Fell.

[Lesley Arrowsmith @arrowsmithlesl1]

@MagiruMevin @JuliaHB1 Pretty sure you've got that wrong.
