Writer & Editor, love the things that make a home - kids, dogs, food, books, warmth

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

@susie_dent All of the above but not forgetting… ‘you do you’

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

@schooltruth Because it’s immediate family, 3 sons + 1 daughter, heir to the throne etc etc

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

@YorkshireWater Thanks for your response, I can understand while commercial users would require notice, not sure about domestic though

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

Totally supportive of the ban but why give everyone advance notice to wash their cars, water their lawn, jet wash their patio? The reservoirs look like the plug has been pulled now, how about an immediate ban?

[Yorkshire Water 💧 @YorkshireWater]

Yorkshire, it’s time to put the hosepipes down for a bit.

From 26th August we’re asking everyone to pop away the hosepipes so we can help get our reservoirs back to normal.

Thank you for helping for using water wisely. 💙

@sdpsb1 @nidderdaleuk @PBMemorialHall Would you be able to point me in the direction of any info on the beacon lighting - can’t seem to see Coldstones Cut listed anywhere - thanks

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

@bettyblueskies 😂 thank you, I appreciate that

I share a birthday with this legend - I don’t think even if I live until I’m 96 the reel of my life would be anywhere near this impressive…

[BBC @BBC]

⁣⁣96 years of Sir David Attenborough in 96 seconds. We are not worthy.
Happy Birthday, David 🎈

Watch David Attenborough on @bbciplayer

@Rebecca_Jones2 Nazanin is so beautiful, it has struck me in every photo published over the years. The pain of not seeing that face must have been devastating, so delighted for you all now

This is heartbreakingly accurate on grief

[Channel 4 News @Channel4News]

"With a loss like that, the world gets rearranged."

Andrew Garfield tells @JackieLongC4 the grief from losing his mother just before filming began for Tick, Tick... BOOM left him with a "precise agony" in which "the world didn't make sense."

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

@scull52 Never 😉

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

Such a festive feeling delivering the lateral flow tests around the bedrooms this morning before the old people arrive

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

@ailsajwilliams Thank you, only the best from Yorkshire of course

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

What to do now the work's Christmas party is cancelled...
All I can offer is five minutes with my new website - I hope it brings you festive cheer

@DVLAgovuk hi, my son is waiting for his licence back after a change of address, he needs it for his theory test next week. Your site says licence issued but it hasn’t arrived & I can’t contact anyone. How do I track it?

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

@bt_uk We’ve gone to Sky, got precisely nowhere with BT, such a waste of hours & hours of our time

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

@bt_uk have been waiting 6 weeks to get service in our new home. Everything installed, fibre connected, just needs you guys to flick the switch. We’ve tried calling, chat, email. What do you suggest?

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

@bt_uk Just that we will be updated but the updates never result in us getting a service. We’re talking to Sky now, I work from home, can’t wait forever.

[Helen Rayfield @patchofbluesky]

@GreenyGreen28 @sainsburys @sainsburys I’m having the same problem & this is a replacement delivery after the system crashed at my local store on Monday. You need to sort your online service, the app has been glitching at checkout for weeks.
