I’ve been in the UK for a while now and honestly, I am still adjusting and learning.
In many ways, the things I was lauded for in the USA: my directness, my friendliness, my commitment, and even just being a passionate person are things I am disliked for & punished for here.
@eflow_freeflow I’m trying to register for the video tolling with a British number plate but can’t add my vehicle. How do I know if I need to pay a toll as entering my number plate doesn’t seem to confirm whether or not I need to
@RafNicholson I’m glad I don’t need to think of the answer! The problem is that I feel priced out of attending the game I want to see despite the fact I can afford it - a mind game my mind is now playing. 🤯
At CHF we know that “good mornings” make all the difference. Our St Martin's classes have a ‘Good Morning’ song which allows every person to feel special and seen, whether they respond through facial expressions, VOCA use or vocalisation – every greeting begins the day 🌈🌂#CHF
After 9 failed attempts over ten years my wishes came true last night at @EH_Stonehenge - I put in an 8 hour shift until sunrise and left with a massive smile. Timelapses currently being processed and will post next week. #Auroraborealis#Stonehenge#tenthtimelucky

So today I am withdrawing as a General Election candidate for The Workers Party. I realise I need more time to listen, learn and find my political home, one that aligns with my personal and political values.
Particularly insightful comments and questions from @twiggsonia - I hope all the right people @ECB_cricket have had chance to listen to the discussion as it threw up a lot of problems to be solved in a short space of time
Finally someone has mentioned what doesn’t appear to have been thought through - what will happen to all the current players and the development pathways in affected counties? There is a real possibility that potential lifelong cricket enthusiasts will be lost in their 20s & 30s
A Board whose government has banned all women from playing cricket, is advocating for politics-free cricket. 🤔 Australia pulling its men from the Afghan T20s is one of the topics on #BBCStumped this week. https://t.co/zyZ5Ui43Na
Have individuals at the @ICC ever imagined themselves as members of a country whose new government decrees that there will no longer be recreational or professional cricket for men - and it all comes to an abrupt halt? #wilfulignorance#shame 👀
