Not me but @TomFletcher @DougiePoynter can anyone help?

@AsdaServiceTeam Regarding an Asda Gift card that wasn’t used one grocery shop, but has mysteriously appeared on the next one but minus £30?

@AsdaServiceTeam Question. Is it normal to be passed back and forth between two departments and speak to now 8 different people, none of whom know what their doing, and being refused to be allowed to speak to a manager?

Updated NICE menopause guidelines published today. While it’s welcome to see HRT as the preferred treatment for the menopause, this is a disappointing update overall. The focus remains primarily on vasomotor symptoms – hot flushes and night sweats – which are, for many women, not the main symptoms of perimenopause and menopause. Most women experience brain symptoms – brain fog, low mood, anxiety, poor concentration, sleep disturbances, memory problems and fatigue – and these are things we know are unlikely to be alleviated in the long term by CBT, as suggested. The guidelines also do not differentiate between older, synthetic HRT and the natural (body identical) hormones now more commonly prescribed – while the word “risk” is mentioned three times as often than the word “benefit”, these newer forms offer more benefit than risks. The true risk comes in NOT taking HRT at all, with good quality evidence showing that low hormones during menopause increases the risk of heart disease, osteoporosis, type 2 diabetes, dementia, neurodegenerative diseases, clincial depression, autoimmune diseases and an earlier death. These diseases reduce in women taking hormones and life expectancy increases. Women deserve to be fully informed and involved at every step of their healthcare consultation to make an informed decision on the right treatment or combination of treatments for them. While we have seen a rise in recent years in access to evidence-based treatments like HRT, a postcode lottery still exists, particularly for those from lower socio-economic backgrounds. Too many women are still struggling to receive HRT, and these guidelines will be confusing for both healthcare professionals and women. Perimenopause and menopause is sorely under-researched and under-funded, and this must change. In the meantime, women deserve to have a choice, and those who want to take HRT should be able to have it prescribed. That HRT is now the frontline treatment is refreshing, but future documents and consultations must go further to ensure women get the treatment they deserve. nice.org.uk/guidance/ng23/…

@Angelinalondon0 You’ve got this 💪💪💪💪 Just remember you have gone through bad times before - you WILL survive this and come out fighting xx

I've been struggling at work recently and today I have another meeting with HR. I need good vibes 😬

@childofthe80 You’ve got this!!! 💪

My blood test results were borderline for everything tested apart from iron levels which are fine. I’ve had a sulk over night and wracked my brains for how to fix this as the gp has offered zero help. I have a battle plan in my head, I know I can do it. But it will be hard

@IHTOAU1 🙄

The only good thing about Halloween is that it staves off Christmas a little longer

@__shiticantsay Awwww thankyou x

@IHTOAU1 They look super professional!! 😍

Women and do many things. We can be glamorous. We can be strong. We can shovel 1.5 tonnes of limescale with pretty nails 💪💪

@BexBookaholic A) Christmas should hurry up B) there is nothing good about Halloween

@IHTOAU1 Yyeeeesssssd

@__shiticantsay Yea :) I actually find gels are easier to use than normal polish - you can go so slowly and then not dry and look shit.

@IHTOAU1 Omg you did these yourself????

@__shiticantsay Awwww thank you xx Since about Feb I’ve been doing my own Gel’s at home :) I do love this colour!!

@IHTOAU1 Omg I am obsessed with these nails!! 😍

@joyjellytots Sent you a request xx

@IHTOAU1 My Facebook is Joy Hanna x

Okay. I’ve been thinking. I like you. You are my friends. But I’m shit and struggle to stay in touch via here. I do post on FB a fair bit. It’s like my journal. It’s also how I stay up to date with everyone and my mum.

@ChrisMoleGolf I’m not really back - lol see my other post :) I post sporadically :) I read and like more than i tweet

@IHTOAU1 You’re back! Are you back? Was only thinking the other day that I hadn’t seen you or Angie on my timeline for ages and then you’ve both appeared again. Also, pretty nails. Hope you’re doing ok.

@BexBookaholic Honestly - getting an electric blanket has saved our marriage!!! He can be all toasty - and I can be ‘it’s fucking the middle of summer why on earth do you need a winter duvet on!!’

I am officially entering my electric blanket era

@DrHLecter I change them every 2ish weeks :)

@IHTOAU1 Aw that's sweet. How long do nails like that last?

So…. Before I change my mind. If you are someone I regularly twitter with, and would like to befriend me on FB, please let me know. Note - this is only for old JoinIners and other regular connections. I will not be opening up my real life to just any old freak!

@DrHLecter But the honest reason for the bunny. Missy died erm…. May. It would have been her 11th gotcha day on Sunday just gone - so I painted a tribute :)

@IHTOAU1 Of course. Fastest finger first as they say.

@DrHLecter 😂😂 wrong finger for that….!

@IHTOAU1 Playing with your rabbit again?
