Helicopter over South Belfast this evening 24th January 2025. Anyone know why?

Hats off to @jessphillips. Jog on to @elonmusk. Here's a 🎶 parody of Leonard Cohen's "Bird on the Wire" about Musk's recent spate of diarrhoea tweets about the UK, called "Turd on a Wire." (With an attempted nod to the wonderful @kdlang arrangement of the song)

@Briansmyth99 Overtaking traffic on the inside is always dangerous and stupid whether by car or bicycle.

I’m doing a big show! Delighted @mandelahall Belfast, 29th March 2025. Tickets on sale now: glistrr.com/events/e/teres…

@chris_rob_tweet @JaneyGodley @c_finn RIP Janet! You will always shine brightly as a wonderful star!

Earlier this morning Janey passed away in her sleep. Her family were with her. The love and support from all her friends and fans during this cancer journey brought her enormous joy. It has also been a huge comfort to us, her family and close friends, thank you.

@JaneyGodley @UofGlasgow Congratulations!!!

Thank you @UofGlasgow for bestowing upon my mum the honorary degree of doctor of the University of Glasgow. This has brought her so much joy in the final beats of her life. Janey is so honoured, and I am so immensely proud of her. Congratulations Doctor Godley. Ashley Storrie

@AlanStout19 Alternatively, reduce profit margin?

The stark reality of GP. If costs go up in budget (minimum wage and employers NI), the only way to meet these is a reduction in service. Lack of GP access is an entirely political decision

Get on the train at Manchester, young lad in a hoodie sits opposite me, tattoos on his hands my first thought is “here we go” he asks where I’ve been and where I’m going so I tell him, we chat a bit more and he asks why I’ve been to Glasgow and what I do, I think do I tell him

A great cause and great fun!! Get your tickets now!!

Just finished watching one of the most beautiful movies I have ever seen. A film I never knew about for some reason. “Quartet” featuring especially The great #MaggieSmithRIP. I want to see again and again.

@seanhollandOSS I think you meant to say ‘right beside Co Donegal, the cultural centre of the North-West’

Excellent schools, very affordable housing both city and rural, cultural centre of the North West and the breathtaking beauty of Donegal and the Wild Atlantic Way on your doorstep with hiking and surfing galore. Just sayin any emergency docs out there…..

@JaneyGodley Take care lovely lady and hoping your health improves so that you can go on carnival rides soon again! Thank you also for giving my daughter Teresa inspiration in her first Edinburgh Fringe this year.

I loved these

Great to have @mspence001 and @AGMcCormick on BBC’s The View tonight with @MarkCarruthers7 providing a strong dose of expert reality to politicians that would be foolish to ignore.

@Translink_NI Such a pity there are so few seats for the elderly and infirm in this vast space.

A special bus for enthusiasts operated last night as the Europa Buscentre closed its doors to passenger services. All buses which operated to the Europa Buscentre have now moved across to Belfast Grand Central Station, which welcomed its first passengers this morning.

@BBCMarkSimpson Just no seats for the elderly or infirm. Sad.

🔹“It’s like being in England” 🔹”It feels like being in an airport.” 🔹 “Belfast now looks like a proper city.” Some reax from passengers at Grand Central. 📍

A great night for a great cause!!

@Una_VIEW @tgeducation @LadyLivy I just wish UTV might broadcast that beautiful documentary one more time.

@tgeducation What a lovely tribute! I directed a documentary on Bridie and it’s great to see her granddaughter @LadyLivy taking showbiz by storm @LivingstoneJim
