@IanMartin #Mums2024 Ian, once again I would like you to speak the name of Bronwen Walker my adored mother. She left me in 1977 when I was 15 and I’ve missed her every day since.

Sinead O'Connor and Terry Hall do Dana- singing 'All Kinds Of Everything'.

Don’t know why they did it but it’s both magical and heartbreaking.

@ThisisDavina I was advised to get one by my lovely GP but it proved too painful to fit into position when menopausal. I’m no expert but imagine this is not uncommon.

@GregHands @Conservatives Good god you think we’re stupid. We’re watching you and literally paddling in your shit.

Helpful only for car drivers. Please promote foot passenger service for the sake of local businesses. Photo taken 13:30 17/04/23 when foot passenger service is fully up and running. @CorranFerry @HighlandCouncil

@campbellclaret please help us. We face months with no ferry at Corran & the vital summer season without our lifeline service. Please speak to @NicUalraig Donna or Norrie to fill you in. We need a loud voice that loves our peninsulas to make our voices heard..thought of you!

Good Friday. The @CorranFerry is off for the day. Although we now face a frustrating day calling all our booked customers, I want to thank the ferry crews who have a frustrating day every day, keeping the geriatric Maid of Glencoul going. We appreciate your work. Thank you.

[Lizzy Stokes @LizzyStokes]

@NicUalraig @CorranFerry @HighlandCouncil @KateWillisSGP @SarahFanet @midgebite Excellent idea. This would allow locals to set off around the loch without having to drive to the ferry to check the queue first.

[Lizzy Stokes @LizzyStokes]

@CorranFerry Thank you for all those years. Happy retirement Donald

@blushing_unseen @IanMartin Ah my lovely mate. It’s a shit club, wish you hadn’t joined x

@KerryAGodliman You’ll soon be the woman who drops her dinner into her glasses on the way down from fork to tits. That’s who I became. Like an early middle age Tommy Tippee bib..

@LBC @clivebull No Coronation please. Pay nurses (and the rest) first.

[Lizzy Stokes @LizzyStokes]

@DianeCoyle1859 I’m so happy! Look! she’s got the happy tail up! ❤️

[Lizzy Stokes @LizzyStokes]

@101andyhibberd @thespecials @toddrundgren Great find. Lovely Terry x

@NoContextBrits @thisisjinsy I wake up wondering what happened to Arbiter Maven and Sporral….but our family will always honour Nacken and sing the blessed songs.

@OwsWills The Inn at Whitewell is fancy, rural & dog friendly. Our 8stone deerhound was as good as gold under the table…then we found the shredded remains of the lead. Screams from nearby let us know he was busy with somebody’s lamb loin dinner. We paid obviously. Wish it had been toast…

[Lizzy Stokes @LizzyStokes]

@NicUalraig I predict inside the puppy…..

@exitthelemming The Wolves of Willoughby Chase, Joan Aiken - alternative history. Strong heroines. The Little White Horse- Elizabeth Goodge is magical & as a small freckled ginger girl, a red headed hero (who wasn’t Anne Shirley) fed my soul…..and the animals are fantastic!

@johnredwood Your local council, wherever it is, has been cut and cut and then cut some more. We’ve been cutting into the vital parts of local gov for years. Stop pretending otherwise. We are wise to the lies.

Knee replacement Christmas. I pulled an early kitchen shift perched on a stool and now the darling daughter has taken over for the tricky bit. I’m a lucky woman.
