Why are the baddies always Scottish in English dramas? #playingnice

@fionaricha48902 @p_zoidberg @theAliceRoberts Absolutely! I just try my best not to do it at Easter, it all ends up a big eggy 🤢

@McBooky @p_zoidberg @theAliceRoberts I actually prefer to roll myself down hills. It's so much fun, have you tried it?

A lot of religious things are nicked from indigenous populations. It's all down to assimilation. I do like a hot cross bun, but like over 50% of the UK population I am not religious at all. Easter eggs are a rip of though so I will stick to my kit kat. @theAliceRoberts

@fionaricha48902 @p_zoidberg @theAliceRoberts Wait, what?! You mean this is not the reason we paint eggs and roll them down hills at Easter?! I don't know if that's a Scottish thing as my English husband had never heard of it.

@p_zoidberg @theAliceRoberts Yay 💥

@strategywoman Sorry to hear that, we've had bad storms in Scotland too, also with deaths. Thankfully no air raid warnings though ❤️

12:38 pm in #Kyiv The air raid alert has been going on for an hour and a half. MiG-3s were took off. No launches for now. Also, today's heavy winds caused damage in Kyiv. Unfortunately, there are casualties. Our mayor informed us that 2 men had already died as a result of the stormy weather with strong winds. 7 people were injured. As of this hour, more than 250 trees have been reported fallen or damaged in Kyiv. I'm at home now.

@strategywoman Some love for our Ukrainian friends in our city last week. We are still with you 🇺🇦🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️

7:08 pm in #Kyiv An amazing sky I caught half an hour ago or so. Air raid alert now. Missiles on their way. We’re at home. I noticed that people unfollow again. Ok. Tired of war. Me? Tweeting, writing. I need to document everything.

@ByDonkeys @strategywoman we are always with you, pushing our government to help ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇦

Solidarity with Ukraine ✊ (Russian Embassy, London)

@NicolaSturgeon Thank you for all your hard work. You put years of blood, sweat and tears into making Scotland a great place to live and keeping us safe in the pandemic. Thank you, yours are some big boots to fill! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 To all the people of Scotland - whether you voted for me or not - please know that being your First Minister has been the privilege of my life. Nothing - absolutely nothing - I do in future will ever come close. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

@fredsirieix1 Balsamic vinegar?

Can you guess what it is? 🍷

@harryewoodgate @acwilsonwriter @AndersenPress Amazing! Waterstones trip planned! ❤️

@strategywoman In Dundee we have penguin statues, they are with you too 🇺🇦🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

1:56 pm in #hometown So the fourth statue-horse is detected. Strange one but funny. *** All of them are below. Your favorite one?

@strategywoman Scotland ❤️

9:54 pm in #hometown Dec 30 here. But in New Zealand it’s already Dec 31, 8:54 am. Probably they’ll be the first entering 2023 ♥️ If you have a second, please, write from which country you are. If from the US, please, write the State. Let’s see how much world we have here.

@JuliaHB1 Wow, I'm glad you deleted 'autistic' as an insult (although it's sad you can't say sorry) but I can't believe you only regret one word of that tweet. Do you think misogyny is something to admire? 🤦🏻‍♀️

I've deleted my previous tweet that mentioned Greta's autism because - although I only referred to it because she states it in her own Twitter biog - people decided to take offence at a fact. Even though they had no problem with this woman calling a man "small dick". Yawn. 2/2

I'd choose Andrew Tate's life *every single time* over the life of a half-educated, doom-mongering eco-cultist. And the only car I own is a diesel Tiguan. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 1/2

Our Wishing Tree is back in store! Pick a tag from the tree to give a gift to a young carer in Dundee. The tree will be in store until December 11th 🎄🎁

@strategywoman Happy Halloween Yara, Vlad and Victory! Here's my attempt at a biryani yesterday, tasted lovely but definitely needs tweaking!

8:10 am in #Kyiv Again. The explosions woke me up. Already heard 3.

@strategywoman Amazing! Good luck! ☺️

3:15 pm in #Kyiv On my way home. Driving test will be on Nov 4. So what’s now? Hope no air raid alerts & I can come to the grocery (here we live between air raid alerts). No complains, just our reality.

@strategywoman Today (like a lot of days recently) I spent a large amount of time trying to learn how to play Minecraft because my son is suddenly its biggest fan! 🙈

12:31 am in #Kyiv Late. Came to say you good night, dear world. And share our #onesentence Mine: - It’s great to have Fridays, even now. Yours?

@strategywoman Relieved to see your tweet this morning. Hope your day gets better. Victory (not the cat) will come ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇦

9:19 am in #Kyiv Air raid alert from 6:25. Explosions recently. I’ve made #warcoffee, black, without sugar. Charged my phone. Fed Victory (still a cat). Going to work (but today at home, still no office). Everything is ok. We’ll survive it.

@strategywoman Hugs from Scotland. We're on our way to visit family in England so hugs from them too 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇦🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

1:26 pm in #Kyiv While I’m standing in a loooong queue in the grocery (such ones were in the first days of our war), let’s do it again. In Feb there was the same situation and tweet. Let me know which country you are from. Let us see your support, dear world ♥️

@strategywoman Good night from Scotland ☺️🇺🇦🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

12:49 am in #Kyiv Extremely late. Came to tell you good night. Hope it’ll be calm. But don’t worry, we’re here strong & fearless. Kyiv hugs 🤗

@SeanBattyTV @TukTukUK @STVLaura Beatrix means ‘voyager’ or ‘traveler’ 😊 My 7yr old son is absolutely obsessed with the weather and wants to be a weatherman when he grows up! If you’re looking for places to stop in Dundee I’m sure his school would love it! Safe travels! 🌞

Second day of our #coast2coastchallenge in Oban and we’re at Oban’s 1st Steps Day Nursery. Looking for a name for our @TukTukUK? Any suggestions, just not Tukky McTukface! 🤣 @STVLaura
