Went out to clear the bird bath of ice... Didn't realize it was ALL ice. 😂

Thank you, University Hospital Southampton 💙 and all the staff of C6, caterers and cleaners. 💙 My husband came home last night after 4 weeks of care - we couldn't have asked for a more professional & compassionate team. Don't know where you get your strength from. Thank you! #NHSheroes

Thank you BBC Future for this insightful article on Germany's Halligen and their approach to climate change. I visited one as a child - for me, coming from Berlin, the tiny islands with their regular floods seemed like a different planet. bbc.com/future/article… via BBC Future

Dear FedEx Europe - great that you have a CSR scheme and recycling info on your packaging. But can you place this where it will NOT be covered by shipping info? Or print it on front & back? I tried hard to uncover it... and suppose many wouldn't even notice it was there.

I'm as competitive as the next person. When it's a game and I understand the rules I want to win. #covid is NOT a game. And the only competition is World vs Virus. Not Country X vs Country Y. If someone else does better than you, learn from them. If you do better, share why.

For a piece of living media history why not watch #Eurovision 1974 (Waterloo!) on BBC iPlayer? Fascinating to see how much has changed in such a relatively short period...

Noticed this "Environmental Information" board for new vehicles at Volkswagen UK (dated Nov 20, so missing ID4). Shows how much things will change by 2030... Yellow: Gone Blue: Gone (except for significant zero carbon range) That tiny green bit... Dominating! #EnergyTransition

How do I know we didn't have a "proper" summer? It's almost September and it's the first time a fat fly has made it into the house... Because the windows are often closed due to rain & it being "too cold" according to my husband. 😅

Spent a delightful hour with the #GreatGardenBirdwatch. Husband accused neighbors of cheating for feeding "their" birds. 😂 Highlights were Mr. & Mrs. Blackbird fighting mid-air and Robin using the birdbath.

Unplanned #science experiment: How does a body of water freeze in a bird bath made from stone? 🤔 Answer: First where exposed to air, then on all the stone surfaces. And if you time it right, you end up with some liquid trapped inside. Nature is so cool. 😎

Absolutely chuffed that GeoPura won the "Best use of Technology" award at this year's CN Awards 🌟. We've formed a really close relationship and it was great to be on stage together to receive the prize. That's how we'll drive change - by collaborating & combining skills.

Here is another quote that made me think of you Zoe Gioti 😊 #carpediem (As seen in The Chester Hotel)

Dear Waitrose & Partners , Thank you for the vouchers "just for me". Sadly, not even at Christmas do I ever spend £140 in one go. Let alone 8x (the no. of vouchers I got). So all of them will go in the bin. What a waste of resources. Let alone being tone deaf.

Just catching up on the #Newsagents and discovered emily m was cruelly prevented from performing her (in)famous anthem! 😂

Are we at risk of wasting time waiting for the general election and neglect to make critical policy decisions (e.g. energy, hydrogen)? #triplife The Rest Is Politics

Whoever says that time travel is impossible is wrong... Just listen to a few random songs you haven't heard in 20+ years! 🎶 Thanks, Spotify UK & Ireland for taking me way back... 🤣

Dear SNCF Connect , since yesterday morning I have received 26 identical text messages just like this one. I am not even on this train. I don't want to block your number but this has turned into spam.

German 5 Pfennig coins through the ages... My great-grandparents would have used these in their lifetimes (except perhaps for the newest). Curiously, it was the 1930s design that lived on in West Germany (slightly updated), and then unified Germany right until the Euro.
