Yesterday I had the best train journey ever in my history of UK train travel while using a wheelchair, all thanks to @TPExpressTrains & their wonderful staff. First time ever travelling with no ramp problems or access disasters. Train was clean & comfy too. I'm so happy!

@DoctorMayJay @DWP The DWP assessor was a GP. I had consultant support & evidence, my mum was present, I was too ill to sit up in bed. I was declared fit to work. Discovered that their doctor had claimed that I'd been running around the room while he was there. How can that man live with himself?

.@Iberia I filed a claim for a refund using your online form. Your (only) reply acknowledged receipt and promised resolution in 20 days. That was 2 months ago. But there is no way to for me to pursue once that form has been marked 'received'. Now I have to resort to social media!

Help! What can be done about @Iberia airline prob? What kind of public customer service push exists nowadays? Recommend something please...

Does anyone know what to do about @Iberia? Only response to my claim has been to tell me they'd resolve refund issue in 20 days. Sent 2 months ago... Their customer service design makes it impossible to give the original claim form a push/reminder/query.

This is devastating: @edinhelp @EdinOutdoors you have destroyed one of our decades old mature cherry trees in White Park. Trees are precious to our highly polluted, densely-populated urban area. Why on earth?? Before and After 🌸🌳😥 #WhitePark #Gorgie #trees #biodiversity

Help required! Debit card blocked for 'suspicious activity'. Phone number for this does not connect. Ever. @RoyalBank 'help' tells me to just call the number... 2 weeks now with no card (stuck in unpaid hostel) @royalbank says again "call this number". Disconnected. AAARGGH!!

@British_Airways Went to that online page, it says I must phone. Answer machine says no calls just now. Please give me online access to getting a refund. Also need to cancel disability assistance booking.

We're experiencing high call volumes due to current disruption. We'll contact you if your flight has been cancelled. To check the status of your flight go to ba.com or if you would like to refund/rebook, please log in to your booking online #BritishAirways

@OneNightStanzas Tax people for helping breeding colleagues to take their kids to the dentist/ leave early for the school run/ get their time off during school holidays? If we're monetising it all, does that mean non-breeders will now get a refund on un-used maternity leave..? Ok then, tax me :-)

@asda Perhaps review your staff training? This month's supply of soya milk has been replaced with cow milk. I'm allergic to dairy & can't get to shops! Please teach/ encourage to substitute LIKE with LIKE. Feedback forms have had no effect so far, hence Twitter.

@ScaryChildren @MakitaUK All fingers crossed for you, Aaron. Xxx

@velocityM !!!

@adq_uk Weyhey, well spotted! Great thing to be part of. Psst, next piece of art will be in the Anatomy museum at the end of the month :-)

Festive revelations! The humiliating ableism & inaccessible hell of Uni is not something for me to just live with/ write about, but to STUDY! There may actually be supportive unconventional access to MSc (then PhD) to study with people who enable & enlighten instead of mocking.

'The Unexpected Urban Wildlife of Quarantined Edinburgh', my strange and intricate colouring book for adults/ colouring book for strange and intricate adults - now has a website of its own! Its gone feral: theunexpectedurbanwildlife.com

There are many, many reasons why each painting takes so much longer than anticipated. Most of the reasons are hairy.

@czarbucks @Riverflies @ForthEstuary @nature_scot @EdinburghShore1 Thank you! They were fascinating to work on.

Perhaps of interest to @Riverflies @ForthEstuary @nature_scot & @EdinburghShore1 & fans. Here is a slice of the art I enjoy creating to promote the importance of water ecosystem research & education. Of course, if one of you would like your own water artist in residence...🧐

@LauraMossEdu @wardiebaybeach @birdandsongs @EA_CEI @TheBotanics @EdinburghShore1 @FaunaFloraInt Yes! <3 I spend my life trying to pass rude staff & lack of disabled access at uni to study, then face lack of disabled access to coastal waters to try to get out there to study (& swim, obvs). If only there was access to a Phd topic to empower me to combine all this knowledge...
