@NorthHertsDC I have sent a DM

[Lorna Hemmings @Spirrelmonkey]

@NorthHertsDC Your website says that you’ve mostly caught up only a few outlying villages, but we are in Hitchin and our recycling bins still haven’t been taken (thurs is our day) for the whole street! Any ideas of when?

[Lorna Hemmings @Spirrelmonkey]

@colinexhemmings @itsbalal Always the romantic!

I might actually cry. Now put back to 221000. Switched to laptop now. This never happened last year @Tesco #tescochristmasdelivery

[Lorna Hemmings @Spirrelmonkey]

@adypem_adrian I think if it keeps happening I’ll just have to do an in person shop, nice 6am shopping trip with the kids!

[Lorna Hemmings @Spirrelmonkey]

@AlisonBrooker1 Amazing! We have a good viewpoint over Hitchin, being up a hill!

Apocalyptic thunderstorm! It got very dark very quickly then strong winds whipping past the window and a mass of lightning! Crazy to think I was looking at blue skies a couple of hours ago! #thunderstorm #herts

When donating to a food bank, many of us may think of giving pasta or tinned food. 🥫

Though this food is appreciated, our food banks are also in need of some more unexpected, but essential items.

Here's six unexpected things you can donate to your local food bank ⤵️

Rain! At last rain! But then that sudden worry of “did I close the water butt tap when I drained the last bit of water!?” I can hear the garden gulping it down from here!

What a week! After avoiding covid for all this time, it finally got me! Felt very rough for a few days, cough and tiredness, then better, but then I made the mistake of getting on with being normal too soon and ended up in bed for another day! Rest rest rest!

[Lorna Hemmings @Spirrelmonkey]

@aintnometaphor After all this time, thinking I’ve been incredibly lucky, I tested positive on weds. I feel wiped out, cough, aches. Today I feel better. It’s really opened my eyes to how those with long covid must of been coping all this time. 🤞🏻 for you!

[Lorna Hemmings @Spirrelmonkey]

@DFSCare waited in this afternoon for a delivery, saw in tracker they were behind schedule, fair enough, but then 8pm tonight and it says item has been delivered! Urm no it hasn’t 🤔

[Lorna Hemmings @Spirrelmonkey]

What a shock! My favourite band, amazing live, especially Taylor. Such a sad day for music. RIP

Me every time I make roast potatoes!

[VeryBritishProblems @SoVeryBritish]

*peels 6 potatoes*
“That should be enough, shouldn’t it?”
*peels another 2*
“That should be fine”
*peels another 3*
“Maybe that’s too many now”
*peels another one for luck*
