A Deputy Head of a Primary school said to me today:

The #earlyyears is the most important stage of #primaryeducation. If you get it wrong, you spend the next 6 years trying to put it right. If you get it right, you can spend the next 6 years building on it.

Couldn't agree more

@O2 please pretty please sort out your customer service hold ‘music’. It’s beyond painful. #02customerservice

Isn't this the point? Doesn't this show how angry and frustrated everyone is?

Tell me a reason you exercise that has nothing to do with losing weight or otherwise changing the way your body looks

Watching footage of the state of A&E departments and the exhaustion of the staff, followed by the gvt saying that it has already put loads of ££ into the NHS makes me so livid. If, even after your ££, it's still on the brink of collapse, DO MORE. BUILD NEW HOSPITALS. #NHSCrisis

@YoungMindsUK The people you think are judging you all the time only exist in your head.

People should go on honeymoons more often, they're fun #SanFrancisco

Woah. "Queues could be for up to 30 hours". What about people who have heart conditions etc or have to go to work? London is going to be mental.

Our friend and colleague Dame Deborah James has died.

She created an incredible legacy: breaking the poo taboo and raising awareness of bowel cancer.

We are heartbroken, and our condolences are with her family.

@SurreyCouncil this road (Guileshill Lane) is a very popular route for cyclists going into the Surrey Hills. When cars come down the road too quickly there is nowhere to go except straight into a pothole and onto the tarmac. Please help!

[Catherine @cath30tweeting]

Please can you sort this road out @GuildfordBC. Huge #potholes, narrow passing, dappled sunlight = extremely dodgy for us cyclists. Seen many near-misses before and this morning one of our group came off badly. Luckily the only thing broken was a bike rather than bones. #ockham
