@HMRCcustomers hi, I’ve just realised that I made a mistake in the VAT Refund application recently submitted that I wish to correct, but I can’t find an email address. Can you advise please? I have an application reference, but it was sent via an automated email address.

If you have recovered from #COVID19, consider donating blood plasma to support clinical trials in the fight against the virus.

Your antibody rich plasma may help other #coronavirus patients.

My beautiful nan passed away in a nursing home recently. I just couldn’t stop thinking about who was with her at the end...it broke my heart

Today, I received a pillow made from nanas nightdress, hand sown by the nurse who held her hand as she passed

And now I know she was ok❤️

Safeguard the theatre! Without govt support 70% of UK theatres & performing arts businesses will run out of cash by Xmas. With support, theatre can play a vital role in helping the UK recover. We need an Emergency Relief Fund and a new Cultural Investment Participation Scheme.

No hint from the government of any help whatsoever for the arts sector. In case you're wondering, the arts industry (arty farty nonsense) sustains 3 million jobs & generates £10 billion for the economy.

@imeldalindsay I forgot the mugs 😍

[Joanne Lisle 💙 @JoanneLisle]

@AlisonMoyet My mum's favourite cup is in my cupboard with the rest. When I reach for my mug and see it, I often ask 'cup of coffee mammy?'.

Please retweet if you think that the UK government should extend the Brexit transition period by two years until December 31st 2022 and delay the EU negotiations until after the coronavirus outbreak has abated.
