Critical Care Nurse with delusions of grandeur - I'd love to be an historian, a writer, composer, a bird ringer, an artist and actor...!

@CVLbirding At least you SAW a water rail. We sat in Stratford hide listening to one bellowing, and knowing full well that it would be a no show. It would not have been a tick for me, but still ...

@BBCR4Sunday @goodacre I really enjoyred this, but would challenge your comment about "The Chosen". They have a NT evangelical academic, Catholic academic and a Jewish scholar as advisers; the director studied theology, and I have watched videos where all 4 discuss production decisions.

@Stuhedge @BBCFLauraKT It's hilarious when Laura is accused of being leftie - I've heard lefties criticise her for being rightie. Equally laughable is the BBC being left biased - one of my family develops apoplexy looking at the broad mix of Question Time panelists chosen to enable balance ...

@WWTSlimbridge Thank-you. I was surprised that I missed them so much. The reserve feels rather naked without them and a bit sterile. ATM it seems a bit more like a bird-themed amusement park. I do understand it's an evolving project though.

@Ginbath Apparently over here they're only supposed to play for 20 or 30 seconds. I feel your pain!

@cloudedyellows @ThePhotoHour @BC_Scotland @savebutterflies @Britnatureguide I did that with a grass snake once despite being desperate for my elderly mother to have time to come out into the garden to see it #numpty. Naturally it scarpered.

I can't believe it's been a year already! Sending love to ALL the children who entered pictures for the illustration competition. You gave a lot of people joy, but nobody more than me. Thank you x

@BorisJohnson Just tell them who paid for the flat.

[Rebecca Day @dayr]

@GarrisonTowns Yes. Hard to describe. Could be halved, buttered and eaten as a savoury snack. They literally melted in your mouth. I lived on them when I was ill as a child and Jacobs sent my mother "the last box" when they stopped making them. Bring them back I say!

@RossjournoClark Disagree, - once lock-down lifts half the population will still be unvaccinated. Cases are likely to rise and more mutations can develop, potentially reducing vaccine efficacy. We also need to increase our effectiveness in keeping new mutations out of the country.

When I started birding I never expected to get photos of a hawk with a pigeon’s head in its mouth. But here we are. Seen north west of the Central Park reservoir yesterday. #birdcp

@Peston @peston - there are really only 2 tiers becsuse hsrdly anyone is in tier 1. If it doesn't work it's because the government has assumed people understand the concept of asymptomatic transmission etc. No one has heard of Typhoid Mary. The tabloids should be doing this.

@starcrossed2018 @magdlibs He was lovely. I'll never forget our doing the vocal illustrations for an MA seminar on ditties. He played the recorder and I sang.

[Rebecca Day @dayr]

@RossjournoClark We don't have to be locked down if mask wearing, social didtancing and "dignified socialising" become the norm.

[Rebecca Day @dayr]

@realDonaldTrump Can you prove you are not equally corrupt? When you said on TV "I was smart" when they accused you of tax dodging, you were admitting to corruption. Number 1: pay your tax. 2) Never tell lies - even white ones or put spin on an issue to distract fron the truth ...

[Rebecca Day @dayr]

@RossjournoClark @r4Today You should talk to me: ICU nurse Had to shield for 5 months. Temporary redeployment working in Covid secure frontline, but on higher risk medical treatment now than when shielding #uniqueperspective

[Rebecca Day @dayr]

@BorisJohnson People with no understanding or experience of the disease don't appreciate why their lives should be disrupted. Capitalism creates a society where individualism has crushed motivation for self-sacrifice and fertilsed selfish indulgence. Thosr are your enemies

@GarethMalone @bethvaughan15 @KenHolmes10 @chichinwanoku @BBCRadio3 @bbcproms @DavidPickard Seems to me that the thing to do is to reinterpret the song for 21st century, which my take on v1 does - I think.

[Rebecca Day @dayr]

@GarethMalone @bethvaughan15 @KenHolmes10 @chichinwanoku @BBCRadio3 @bbcproms @DavidPickard Well "Britain never, never,never shall be slaves" is a clue and people of colour are part of Britain. Actaully I'm sitting on the fence atm; I'd like to know exactly which bits are offensive and why.
