If you hate Pope Leo because he is too “liberal”, I have some very bad news for you about Jesus.

This is the type of top tips I like to see on my timeline. 🐶 ❤️

It's time to repost this Easter masterpiece

A reminder to all my friends across the UK that British Summertime starts tonight at 1am so don’t forget to put your clocks forward an hour and get your snow shovels ready!

Honoured to be a very small part of this amazing work. The team who have delivered this are incredible and the students truly phenomenal. They are an inspiration and a beacon of hope. ❤️

Attended the @edinburghnapier.bsky.social international women’s day professorial lectures to watch the incredible Prof. Nicola Ring. Inspiring and super grateful to have such amazing role models to look up to. Bonus fun by bumping into the brilliant @andycatlin.com

The myth, the legend, that is Otis Redding. 19 years old, still ruling to roost and bullying the dogs. He’s become more dependent on our company since Miss Dusty Springfield passed but not sure another litre friend is the answer. Any experiences of older pets who have lost their companion?

So what was the big topic that caused this? Gaza? Climate change? Economic stability? Seagulls!!!!! 😳🙄🙈

Took little T to ‘The Night Garden’ live show yesterday. Not sure I’ll ever recover. 1/2 the audience arrived late. Kid behind vomited. Kid beside shat themself. People eating smelly food all around. Got mugged at the merch stand. Little T loved it (although he keeps talking about the smell/noise) 🤢

It's seven years since we posted on Twitter about how kids kept coming into the library asking if we had any books about FORTNITE. We didn't back then, and we'd never heard of it so we tried asking what it was.

Today was annual leave and self care day. Self care in this house typically involves hair dye or ink and needles. Today was the latter (although there’s a whole evening ahead). Massive thanks to Lauren at Brass Buddha in Tranent who always has blown me away with her talent. #tattoo #selfcare

Went on a writing retreat this week. Love them for their balance of productivity and restoration. The wonderful facilitator caught the attendees during their down time ……… #BigKidAtHeart #AnimalTherapy #NeverGrowUp

A microscopic Tardigrade (water bear), walking across a glass slide. Extremely resilient, they can survive decades without food or water and can survive in direct exposure to space.

Been drinking a lot of this cordial. Bottle said 1:4 with water but I found it a bit weak so pouring a solid 1:3. Husband tasted it last night & looked like he was going to be sick. On revision of the instructions it’s actually suppose to be 1:14 cordial:water. My sweet tooth/bad eyes strike again 😂

After 18 fabulous years we have had to say a very sad goodbye to Little Miss Dusty Springfield. 💔

Home from holiday at 4:30 last night. At the vets before 5pm with a very sick cat. Not even 24 hours later and I’m £600 down and waiting to bring her home to palliate. 18 years old and she’s still bringing the drama. 🐈 Whatever time she has left will be filled with lots of cuddles and dreamies ❤️

Yesterday I chucked on my dungarees as I was examining & planned to change into my scrubs when I got to work. Plans changed & I got to play a 12 year old patient in the OSCE. 3 people assumed my dungarees were a character outfit 😂😂🙈 Nope just a middle age woman who hasn’t grown up 🤣

Got a gentle tap from Little T in the early hours to tell me all his bogies were gone & he could breathe. He then advised me he had stuck them all to my shoulder 😳🙄🙈😂 99.9% of the time grand-parenting is a joy. Then there’s these moments 😂
