@OxfordBusCo Your driver on the 913 service from Upper Heyford just decided to miss out the stops in Upper and Lower Heyford. One elderly lady is now unable to go and get urgent prescription medicine today. Can you please remind drivers of the correct routes?!

@AliceStainer Assuming it’s a village hall I know well, it’s just an excuse for the over-70s of the village to have a social get-together. But there’s a hyper-local type of patriotism here that is very interesting and different to anything I’ve encountered elsewhere!

@Brucey1 Love that it’s just PBCP these days!

@holydisrupter Yes, this happens! Happy to share more in DMs

@ProfEmilyOster Is there any research on protein requirements in pregnancy? I imagine building a baby is kinda the same as building muscle mass, but perhaps not?

@victoriamoul I did so about fifteen years ago, but I’ve never met another millennial who has done. (I loved it and do recommend it!)

@EmilyKerr36 The green one on the corner of Crown Street (Eastern and Continental?) used to do Persian ingredients - sure I’ve bought dried limes and herbs there before

@OurCofELike Well this is exciting! Looking forward to hearing what you’re up to.

@EmilyKerr36 Thinking about the Woodstock Road roundabout, I think there are traffic sensors on various sections at the moment - so you could correlate that data with the relevant school closure dates this side of the city?

@oldenoughtosay @tudorgrrrl Was the original site of St Peter's in the East further south, so the High shifted south to go past the south door of the church? Or does the layout pre-date even the earliest known site of St Peter's?

@oldenoughtosay Highly recommend the Twitchill dresses from Hobbs. Machine washable too.

@TheoHopkins4321 @DannyYee @MCSOxford The danger is that they might get within five metres of a poor person.

@EmilyKerr36 Peartree roundabout running freely this morning, for the first time since schools started back in September. A34 southbound leading up to it was still a bit congested, as was Woodstock Road, though.

@anne_goldgar So sorry to hear this. He was wonderfully kind and good-humoured with undergraduates during my time at King's - I'm sure he will be hugely missed.

@william_whyte Hoping I'm not the only one who initially misread an "a" for an "e" on that sign.

@EOTR Thanks - I got through but it’s a whole load of utterly unnecessary stress. Even worse than having to use the compost loos this year 🤢

@Brucey1 Love that your "Hamish out" option is very similar to my "Peter out" option 😂
