@tourscotland Hope you’re OK, Sandy!

You may feel like you won’t survive, but for most people, the flu isn’t fatal. Still, there’s nothing like Googling your symptoms in the middle of the night to make you rethink everything and panic

Yes, please!

@tourscotland Sandy, will we see more of you on Bluesky?

@OrkneyLibrary See you there. So long, and...

Don't worry we're not leaving and remember if you're not following us here you can follow us over on Facebook or Instagram. We've not tried any of those other ones. Yet...

And so they go again, slowly leaving one at a time until one day we'll just be here alone, tweeting into the abyss about books and the old days when it was different. We used to have a blue tick. You don't understand. We could have had class. We could have been a contender, etc

On Monday 14th October Nick Hand is coming to Orkney Library on an adventure across Britain with a printing press on the back of his bike! He's visiting libraries and printing bookmarks - in #Orkney he's going to print a bookmark specially designed by Morph creator Peter Lord.

@ianhanomansing Having experienced the "big ones" - the Loma Prieta and the Northridge quakes while living/working in California, I always go to the USGS (United States Geological Survey) website "Did you feel it" for fast info. Ihttps://www.usgs.gov/programs/earthquake-hazards

Woke up at 4:06 and could hear the lampshade moving. Scanned the news feeds and social media and saw nothing. Considered posting: did anyone else feel that and thought better of it 😏. But now I see the other posts. It's a reminder: am I really ready for a big shake? #earthquake

BREAKING: Anderson Cooper just did a complete fact check on Donald Trump’s press conference from earlier. It’s about time the media holds Trump accountable. Retweet so all Americans see this.
