@JuliaHB1 @Keir_Starmer Here’s just one woman who was integral to the landings…Odette Hallowes was a spy for the SOE. She gathered crucial intelligence/photographs of the French coast, used to prepare for the landings. Captured by the Gestapo, she survived brutal torture refusing to betray her network.

On #internationaldogday this is a reminder to East London locals to take time to research Tower Hamlets council’s proposed dog controls including a total ban on dogs being off lead in parks. https://t.co/ZvTRwnwhwB has some great advice on how people can make their voice heard.

SAY NO to the off-lead ban. Tower Hamlets council is proposing dog controls that could ban off lead dogs in parks.

I wrote this Thursday, about the death of my sister last August. She had a living funeral, died at home, and we kept her body home for 3 days--a process that was soothing in the inevitable torment, and which I wish more people knew IS an option. ❤️

@JennyMeadows800 Jenny - my dad used to love watching you run and he’d be so proud of you, @Faster_feet and @keelyhodgkinson. Wow. I so wish he could have seen that!

@shitscaredmum So much love to you all. I’m in awe - Laura’s resilience, tenacity and bravery and your thoughtfulness, grace and compassion for others in the face of everything. So many people are holding you, Laura and your family in their hearts.

@thehistoryguy Thank you for shining a light on these wonderful women and keeping their stories alive. My grandfather ran an SOE training school. I wish I knew more about what he had done.

@royalmusing Decathlon are good.

@sociabledog For me it was our first walks with her off the lead - on holiday in Scotland on the Tay, at Loch an Eilean and later on Nairn beach. There was a time when she was so frightened I thought I’d never be able to let her off lead.
