@Chez_Em @marksandspencer Totally agree @Chez_Em. On Saturday, I went into my local, store for the first time since it re-opened after being refurbished and the music was so loud that I couldn’t shop and couldn’t actually stay in the store. Won’t be going back.

Shout out to @flareaudio who sent me two lots of ear protectors when I ordered only one. Kind gentleman on the phone told me to keep both pairs and perhaps gift one of them. Excellent customer service; that’s the way to do it!

My small moment of joy is tasting the first honey from the hive and remembering my husband, David, who loved his beekeeping.

@drlucypeake Yes indeed. An import message for government.

Schools have enough money to do their job. Unfortunately, they don't have enough money to do the job of social care, mental health support, poverty reduction etc etc...

@HughesHaili Congratulations. What a great achievement!

[The Orpington Chorale @ChoraleThe]

LA Brahms work you have probably never heard of Gesang der Parzen - So sang the Gods - kicks off this concert with a huge orchestral introduction. Beautiful and familiar Schubert follows and then run the gamut of emotions with the German Requiem. Unmissable! #singforhealth.

Despair and tragedy is all around us. COVID and the cost of living have taken their toll on countless families. I am weeping while reading this.

I can’t find the words to adequately say how I miss him. A year on and I’m still searching for the person I am without him. #46years #livingwithloss

@PastoralThings @PastoralThings , I’ve been shouting this for over 30 years. How does this set a child up for a school day?
This is someone who knew the importance of being at school regardless of what was being modelled at home. Some reward, eh?
