Fly: Bzzz
Me (concentration broken, hands on hips): Now, fly, it's like this. You either leave in silence or you'll have to die...
Fly: *Raises eyebrows*
Me: Yeah, you're right. I need some fresh air...
Fly: Bzzz

@qikipedia When I lived in China, 20 years ago, I often came across public toilets similar to this. Sometimes it was just an open 'gully' with no dividing markings or structures...

Always useful to have an umbrella to create some semblance of privacy!

@shelleywriter @GreatOrmondSt A poignant post...

Baby Scribbles is having open heart surgery in the morning. (Not at GOSH.)

With the easing of #lockdown imminent, I've realised my wardrobe needs updating.

So I've bought some new slippers.

@Inkyplots It's a glorious day but I must admit I'm just trying out a coffee on the patio and have concluded I need at least another 12 degrees added to make it bearable! Xx

@MandyBerriman To be honest, that sounds similar to teaching 15-year olds! (Except you don't always get the mature discussion.) 🤣

@MarianKeyes, have you heard this beautiful song by Sting, celebrating World Down's Syndrome Day?

(Sorry, I couldn't figure out how to add the video as a reply to your tweet about #WDSD2021 🙈)

@Inkyplots Thank you, lovely Lou. Oh, such a shame you couldn't hear it! I wonder if I did something to it?! Xx

[Stefka Scribbles @StefkaScribbles]

@downsyndromecc @MarianKeyes @Lottie_dolls I love this. There's a Spanish company that makes a lovely range of dolls with Down's syndrome, too.

@Rio_Youers Brilliant!
When I lived in China (back in the late '90s/2000), they used to show episodes of Monkey on enormous screens in the middle of the city.

@MooseAllain It's the most popular pasta dish - orzo I believe.

Looked up this weaning info earlier and now I've got THAT ear worm...🦈🦈🦈
Sorry, everyone. 😳

@tes Whatever you think about uniform, here's an idea: instead of falling into this trap of thinking young people can only 'express themselves' in their own clothes, why don't we remind them that it's their actions that define them - not the way they look.

@PatricProAuthor Hey, Pad. Fancy meeting you here!
Childhood Saturday mornings: swimming training at 6.30am for a couple of hours, back to tidy up, then ballroom dancing at 11am.
