@Telegraph today via my Apple account I claimed three months free subscription followed by £29.99 per month but on pressing the button was immediately charged £29.99. Unimpressed I have cancelled the subscription and tried unsuccessfullyto complain via your help pages.
@LordCFalconer I recommend https://t.co/aVGvObNoHe where the moral issues are very fully discussed. As a Parkinson’s sufferer I face a miserable end yet I would be unlikely to get a terminal diagnosis. Which is why IMHO the test should be medically certified intolerable suffering.
@ruskin147 Can I point out that in today’s episode of law & disorder discusses this phenomenon and the legislative steps being taken by the government to bring it to heel https://t.co/nm5obRPuIi
@bricksilk@JoshuaRozenberg@UKSupremeCourt@UKHouseofLords Latterly he became a good friend at Denham Golf Club. A round with him was always extremely interesting. He had an endless supply of fascinating tales. Even if you were at the other end of the course you always knew when he hit a bad shot. He will be sorely missed
@bricksilk@JoshuaRozenberg@UKSupremeCourt@UKHouseofLords In Feb 1982 I did my very first case in the High Court against Simon leading Peter Goldsmith before Hollings J. In re H. (A MINOR) (ADOPTION: NON-PATRIAL) [1982] Fam 121 . A terrifying experience for a tenant of 3 months. He could not have been more charming and tolerant. 1/2
@moversand6@SpotlightYOPD Correction: Jamie Carnwath was diagnosed in 1988. I could blame the tremor for the typo but the truth is that I posted it over-hastily
@moversand6@SpotlightYOPD We are also joined by Deborah Carnwath, whose late husband was diagnosed in 1968 aged 38, one year after their marriage. They had 2 children and were parted by his death 30 years later. She movingly tells us about their life together under the shadow of PD.
We’re so grateful for the lovely reviews for the podcast. A sample:
“At last Parkinson’s has a powerful voice!”
“it makes me feel that we are less alone, so thank you.”
“Keeping the subject of PD open and honest with laughter in the mix helps a great deal”

@ruskin147 4: The contributions have included a thoughtful package addressed to me from an anonymous donor enclosing a bicycle saddle seat sheepskin cover made by the very aptly named Happy Frog Ltd. I have no doubt that by day 4 and 250 miles it and I will have formed a very close bond.
@ruskin147 3: When we embarked on this venture we were advised that it would be very creditable if we raised £5000. As of this evening we have raised £27,666 for the two causes from 246 donors. The scale of the generosity has brought tears to our eyes. We are so very grateful.
@ruskin147 1: Thank you Rory for supporting this challenge. 286 miles works out at 71 miles a day, which is terrifying even if I will be on (unlike the children) an electric bike. We set off on 27 April.
