@CraigTilley95 Both Sam and James were so refreshing, gave interesting insights and actually named moves and values rather than just talking in cliches during the routines.

Can Sam Oldham commentate gymnastics more often? Love the energy he brings! Please and thank you 🙏🏻

@keithchandlerr @jamscecred By 'looking the part' I assume you mean they're white. FYI Kinsella is an Irish name and her dad played football for the Rep of Ireland so your ignorance and racist undertones are very clear. Your original post looked racist and the use of the p word later confirmed it.
English
@jamscecred 1) everything going on in Europe concerns me to some extent because I’m European
2) 😂 I’m just guessing tbh. Ruby Stacey and Alice Kinsella are extremely British sounding names, and they look the part. There’s always surprises, but I’m usually very accurate w those kinda things

@AllyFogg @saralewis735 Absolutely, I was in hospital for nearly a week after a traumatic emergency c-section so by the time I got home my husband's PL had nearly finished.
English
@saralewis735 The fact that women have just gone through massive trauma is precisely why their partners need to be at home with a new baby for AT LEAST two weeks.

In March there was a vote in Parliament to make a paltry two weeks of paternity leave a statutory right for all new fathers.
Rupert Lowe didn't bother to turn up to vote.

Giving birth is obviously an incredibly challenging experience for the mother - trust me, nobody is denying that. I do think though, that fathers should be shown more respect by the NHS during the whole process. No food provided, no basic bedding, nothing. The father is having a child too - potentially staying multiple nights, sleeping on the floor or a chair? If the NHS can find hundreds of millions for translation/interpretation and the rest of the diversity bullshit, then surely a few campbeds in each ward isn't such an impossible investment? A bowl of pasta for the dad, who does actually pay for that meal through his own taxes? I've asked the Department of Health to reconsider their approach. It would be nice if fathers weren't treated as some awkward afterthought, during the process and so often across wider society. Let's give dads the respect they deserve.

@BadeJailey @rusgymfan they’ve honeslty got worse and worse each year, you can tell they don’t actually do much research or keep up to date with the gym world and i’m tired of it now 😫

@DFDSLiveUpdates if we've booked a crossing to Dunkirk and miss it due to traffic can we take the next ferry to Calais instead, or do we need to wait for the next Dunkirk one? Many thanks

@DFDSLiveUpdates If we missing our crossing to Dunkirk do we need to wait for the next one or can we be put on the next Calais crossing instead?

@NoContextBrits Fried onion and ketchup. Brings back memories as it used to be my lunch of choice at De Montfort Uni's Scraptoft campus refectory in the 90s.

@TOTPFacts We noticed some episodes had been missed and then saw R Kelly and Puff Daddy in the top ten. Thanks for confirming it.
English
Thanks to Puff Daddy (whose track “I’ll Be Missing You” topped the chart for three weeks), we’ve skipped the 25 July, 1 August and 8 August 1997 editions of #TOTP. Selected highlights follow. (Apologies for the poor quality of some of them.)

@RachelVoldman @zulfimyfriend @DeputyGrocott It baffles me when they do things like this to push attendance up - surely they realise 2 poorly kids off for a few days is better for their stats than having 8-10 kids absent a few days later having caught their lurgy.

At the libraries I work at we would offer her our phone no questions asked, we'd also get her a drink and biscuit while she waited for mum.
Megan Kinch@meganysta
My 11 year old got lost and asked for help at a library. They told her she couldn't call her mom from the phone and should use a payphone. She said she didn't know how. They said they couldn't help and she ended up crying alone on the street corner @torontolibrary

@SilentTheatre1 What do you mean start? Been doing that for a couple of weeks now 🥶

Anybody else about to start hot water bottle number 2?

@timlinehan My school preference when son got his EHCP was the local independent school - LA refused. Luckily he's now in a small mainstream secondary who are brilliant & have a good understanding of ASD but if that went tits up I'd desperately try to find the funds for that independent.
English
Worth digging into this: 42% of pupils in independent schools get extra time in exams compared to 26.5% in state schools (some caveats). I'd be interested in knowing more about the neurodivergent intake of both. Anyone have any data? tinyurl.com/5n73usnd

@Jambeanie We love a hot water bottle (or 3) in our house. I've had 2 burst on me this year thou so all new ones now. Great for my aching joints and perfect for saving on our heating bills.
English
Do you own a hot water bottle?
It's more associated with women I know... But do you own one? And do you think it's normal to have at least one in a UK home?

@sainsburys Hi Humira, there doesn't appear to be a link on your post, can you add it and I'll DM you. Many thanks x
English
@NattyNetty Hi, can you DM us with this link. Just for security, can you please confirm your full name, the first line of your address, postcode and email? Thanks. So we can assist you promptly. Thanks Humira

@sainsburys unpacking this morning's shopping and notice the packaging on the sausages isn't sealed properly. Can't risk eating them, is there a way to get a refund without driving all the way back to the store please?
English
@k8jones11 @NoNonsenseND Me too. Worse smells linger for hours despite me being nowhere near them any more.
English
@NoNonsenseND Im highly sensitive to smells, once its in my nostrils it stays there in my head. Like sometimes when I hear things, I’m not sure it’s stopped or not or just me still feeling the noise.
English
@CarrieGrant1 @BBCNewsnight Caught this by chance as I was going to bed, stopped to watch and was nodding along as you were speaking for us all. I fought for my ASC son's EHCP, looking back I don't know how I found the strength and energy and it shouldn't have to be like that to get support for our kids.
English
I will be on @BBCNewsnight tonight talking about the #SEND crisis - sharing lived experience of fighting impossible systems to get help for my children and the need for systemic change. #autism #ADHD #dyslexia
English
@nectar can you help please. I've just checked my app and yesterday all my points (nearly £100 worth) have been spent - googling the locations it looks like at a petrol station and 2 different stores in the Birmingham area. Obviously not by me as I live nowhere near.
