@WstonesHelp Thanks Jo. I’ve sent one already with my order number. Let me know if you’ve not received it

[Dr Rebecca Verspoor @RSVerspoor]

@Waterstones I ordered @SabrinaGhayour’s Persiana Everyday on the 21st July as a pre-order. It was released last week and apparently only Oxford and Cambridge have copies?! Can you explain what’s going on please? Thanks

[Dr Rebecca Verspoor @RSVerspoor]

@Waterstones @SabrinaGhayour @WstonesHelp Thanks. I’ve just sent them a dm.

@hydei_and_i We catch and ring Moor hens and Coots and use sardines to trap them in potter traps. They end up pretty stinky and are pretty vicious too! Wouldn't recommend a sniff

Had to turn the chair round into the sun for this absolute prince today. He’d already assessed the garden and there wasn’t enough sun yet #Spoilt #SunWorshipper #Lurcher #dogsoftwitter
