@fern_horineUK Many congratulations on your OBE. I love following your activities in Moldova and all you are doing to promote and strengthen our bilateral relations. A great recognition for all the tremendous work you have been doing. x

@luxemiaa I thought Mother's Day was for children - of any age - to show love, respect or whatever to their mothers. Did they? Did he to his mother, if she is still around? I wouldn't expect anything from my husband!

@Moonlight_myths I've seen at least three different versions of this "story"!

@BBCBreakfast I came through Marseille twice last week - to and from a cruise & it was very quick. Not a huge airport so no big queues. Main issue was my fingerprints didn't register. The immigration official had to press down on the end of my fingers before it worked!

@ronsterd89 And no milk, you can actually taste the coffee!

@Adasomma1 It can't be that bad otherwise he would have seen the signs. Either that or he's not that bothered about her.

[Linda Cross @licross]

@Sal_Robins2 Nothing you can do really, same as when seemingky able-bodied people skip out of the accessible toilets. You daren't say anything and not all issues are visible. So we have to grin - or not - and bear it! 🤷🤷

@KeruboSk I went out with a guy when I was about 18 - now 70 this weekend. He broke up with me one Thursday, on the Monday morning there was his wedding photo in the local paper with his obviously heavily pregnant wife! I did actually see the funny side after the initial shock!

@londonette @MoJGovUK Something needs to change. I attended a trial recently for a crime committed 4 years ago. Neither the prosecution nor defence witnesses could properly remember what happened. Not all cases have juries anyway, perhaps there's scope to extend that a little.

@PhilipSerrell Maybe no-one - including you - has taken the trouble to nominate him. Doesn't just happen automatically!

@orbitsplaza Still my favourite couple's choice dance.

@Seny_jr @piersmorgan What rubbish. I've spent the last 5 days negotiating my way through protests about the situation in Gaza just to get out of my flat. And most weekends I have to plan journeys across London carefully as buses are rerouted, roads closed etc for protests. So there's no silence!

[Linda Cross @licross]

@NicholasLissack I've lived in different parts of London for 47 years - South Kensington, Earls Court, Pimlico, Victoria, Newham - and never been victim of a crime. But then I don't walk around with my mobile phone in my hand.

@Jenny_1884 NHS charges for services given to those who are visiting. The issue is not everyone pays up and it takes a lot of money and resources to follow up on this. As others have said, it is not just UK citizens who should have free NHS, those here legally and paying Ng NI & taxes too.

@awkwardgoogle Gosh, these have been around for decades, I remember using them in a restaurant in New York in the 90s!

[Linda Cross @licross]

@RadioGenoa Don't just accept something because somebody says it. I've been on beaches in Morocco with no women dressed like this. Stop the stirring!!

[Linda Cross @licross]

@ConratheEmma @Jenny_1884 That's strange. I was there 2 weeks ago and it was great. Can't believe it has declined so much in just one week! 😱

[Linda Cross @licross]

@SandyofSuffolk Actually they do receive money from benefactors. My late husband left them some money in his Will.

[Linda Cross @licross]

@Jenny_1884 Mad me laugh "rain or shine", like there's any choice about when you went to school, depending on the weather! Only once remember getting a lift, and that was in a tractor and bogie to reach school through deep snow!

[Linda Cross @licross]

@OliLondonTV I live in London and agree, but it's not for Trump or anyone like him to say so.
