@zoepackman117 Congratulations Zoe! Not often I see nice stuff on here these days so this really made my day.

Went to Windsor castle to collect my MBE from Prince William today. It is a great privilege to receive this honour and I am grateful to all those who have mentored, supported and guided me throughout my career

@MetMattTaylor Thanks for the link. I’ve got a 9 year old off school today - at least we’re learning!

@HelenBaimbridge It is indeed …and quite a spectacular one at that - thanks Helen. Caused by sunlight being refracted by the ice crystals that are making up a very thin layer of cirrus cloud bbc.co.uk/weather/weathe…

The skies above Haddenham @MetMattTaylor I’ve never seen anything like this before.

@MetMattTaylor Guess the photo helps! 🤣🤣

@HelenBaimbridge Ooooo sounds interesting. Why’s that? I’m in London sadly

@MetMattTaylor Another meteorologist in the village tells me it’s a solar halo. It’s pretty spectacular looking.

@Estelle37 Morning. Same sentiments over here.

America - wtaf. What have you done.

@MirandaKeeling I think I might! Thank you

@HelenBaimbridge You are so welcome! You might enjoy my book too: waterstones.com/book/the-year-…

@amandajoyoates @Mersey_Care @JR_MerseyCare I’m sure will be greatly missed Amanda. I was always so impressed and motivated by what you and the rest of the team managed to achieve. Best of luck with the next step.

@doctorwibble @Kevin_Fong Really quite extraordinary 🙏

@Kevin_Fong You did a brilliant job today.

Thank you to the many thousands of people across the whole of the NHS & social care who helped deliver the care during the pandemic. Has been a strange and difficult day. But felt it was important to give witness to some small part of the enormity of the challenge we all faced.

@AntonyTiernan Whenever IRL politics gets too ridiculous, I start rewatching or I find a fave episode. Perfect tonic

Happy 25th birthday to The West Wing. The best TV show ever! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@rokhladnik Meta.

Hey media buyers, what's your biggest challenge right now?

@CharityComms I’ve just been discussing this with my audience on LinkedIn. An understandable decision.

After careful review, we have decided to scale back our activity on X so we can put our energy into a wider social media strategy that reaches our members in new and exciting ways.

@GraemeDownieMP Congratulations Graeme!

It was a great honour to give my Maiden Speech in the House of Commons yesterday afternoon. As Iain Banks wrote: “the future remains malleable, and retains the possibility of change. " youtu.be/fwpCOCwH3B8

@KirkMillisWard Ouch! Hope it heals fast

@GuitarmoogMusic I mean, if you put those things together it might be a good night 😉

@comms2point0 Out fighting last night. Naughty.

Shall we have a bit of #CommsPets action? Here's Brodie in beautiful North Norfolk. Share a pic from your week 😎

@DrNeenaJha He sounds like an absolute legend. Thank you for sharing his story with us. The world needs more people like him.

I’d like to talk about my Dad. He came to England from India at age 17. He had a brutal childhood- he’s refused to talk us kids about it but part of his childhood involved living on the streets as a child in India Coming to England saved his life. Literally. He has worked - shop keeper, then taxi driver & has contributed to tax his whole life here. He refused to charge people for his taxi service when they visited hospitals, students who felt unsafe walking at night etc. He worked 7 days a week, and we lived month to month. My Mum, at the age of 64, still works full time as an insurance broker & has also paid tax her entire working life. My Dad retired at the age of 70 during the pandemic as he was diagnosed with cancer. Thankfully he’s currently in remission 🙏 As soon as he was given the “all clear” he could finally pursue his dream - to feed those in need. At the age of 70 he asked my Mum to teach him how to cook. Every Tuesday he buys food to feed about 100/200 homeless people a week. He wakes up at 3am every Wednesday to cook the food, package & distribute it with a team of volunteers who also provide them warm clothing, cut their hair etc with nothing but love. The volunteers are from all backgrounds, all colours, all ethnicities as are the people they serve. He is the kindest, most compassionate person I know. To have people judge him based on the colour of his skin breaks my heart beyond measure.

@AntonyTiernan @NHSBT @GiveBloodNHS @NHSOrganDonor They’re lucky to have you - congratulations!

Delighted to announce that I’ll be joining NHS Blood and Transplant as Director of Communications and Engagement in September. It will be great to be back in the NHS and working across the UK to support the essential life-saving work that @NHSBT @GiveBloodNHS @NHSOrganDonor do.

@CommsGuyMatt Ah Matt, I’m sorry to hear this. I like reading your posts. Gorgeous pic of Pen y fan
