@Feargal_Sharkey Two weeks ago a major fish kill on the Roe, a river which I’m sure you know well. For two days we were all over the media. In the midst of an election campaign not one single mp, mla or councillor got in touch. Says it all. Depressing!

@MatSilk @susie_dent @BBCBreakfast My father-in-law (Buckinghamshire) used to refer to people as ‘me duck’. When he referred to you as ‘ducky’ it had a more negative connotation.

It was a treat to chat on @BBCBreakfast this morning about local dialects and the words that define us, from barm cakes to chuggy pigs. Which words or expressions transport you immediately back home?

@aineltoner @BelTel My Dad would often, when speaking about someone in a derogatory sense, refer to them as “a cod’s arse”, which seems a little unfair to a cod’s anatomy when you consider some of the “headbangers” out there.

@gnickodonnell The Pale Blue Eye. Watched it last night. Harry Melling as Edgar A. Poe was very good, I thought.

@sianharries_ Driving to San Antonio Texas last month and a sign outside a hospital suggested that the waiting time in ER was 3 minutes (if you could afford the treatment when you got there). We need to provide adequate resourcing and support our NHS!

‘If Little Johnny needs an overnight hospital stay at £750, a consultation at £250 and a paracetamol IV drip at £270, how much crowdfunding will Little Johnny need to raise when we inevitably switch to the US private healthcare model?’

@bbcweather @angie_weather Driving up from Austin to Dallas yesterday morning the temperature dropped 20 degrees C. Not the kind of weather we usually get in Derry. Currently sitting at -11C.

@susie_dent @8Outof10Cats What about the Ulster Scots term “a lock” which translates as much/several. Would be a good fit I think.

It’s an @8Outof10Cats does Countdown recording day. Pondering the collective noun for comedians. A giggle? Punchline? Guffaw? All suggestions welcome.

John Bercow is Jewish. He has known Jeremy Corbyn for 27 years. He was asked if Jeremy was anti-Semitic. His answer was profound
