@British_Airways I'm trying to upload my COVID pass and passenger location form for a flight to Spain tomorrow but the website freezes whenever I press submit. This happened yesterday and today. Is there another way to send these to you?

How times have changed

[Cameron Garrett @CameronGarrett_]

It's now been a whole year since fieldwork finished on our first @IpsosMORI Coronavirus tracker survey (a week before lockdown was announced) 🤯

71% told us they were washing their hands more, but only 23% were avoiding leaving the house + 5% wearing a facemask 😬

[Becky W-D @BeckyWD]

Keep focused people

[VeryBritishProblems @SoVeryBritish]

Welcome to March. We’ve had a stern chat with last March who has assured us this March will be much less, how shall we say, horrific. So keep the masks on, keep diving into hedges to avoid people, you know the drill, and let’s trundle our way towards a lovely Summer. As you were.

[Cameron Garrett @CameronGarrett_]

🥳@IpsosMORI asked Brits what they're looking forward to when Coronavirus restrictions end... 👇

Top of the list:

1⃣ Seeing family + friends (83%)
2⃣ Not thinking about Covid (83%)
3⃣ Day trips (80%)

Who's looking forward to the pub!? Well, men more than women (64% vs 54%) 🍺

[Dr Emma Kavanagh @EmmaLK]

Good morning. It’s Monday. It’s January. It’s a global pandemic. Life is…challenging. So, I’ve put together a thread. I’ve been researching the psychology of isolated environments, thinking that there could be information in there that could help us in this period of isolation

[Becky W-D @BeckyWD]
