On train on way home, and I'm bloody exhausted. So much pain and tics plagued me all day, reminds me why I can no longer spend a day trip outside my home town. That said, a wonderful day, beautiful wedding & saw my entire family!

Just had the best news of 2025, an invite to the wedding celebrations of the most beautiful, funny, caring friends I've ever known. I'm so excited and it's not till next May!

I read that Lucy Connolly was "one of the most petrified inmates" at her prison, so at least she could imagine the terror of vulnerable people trapped inside a hotel surrounded by gangs of people threatening to burn it down with them in it, all because of a false online rumour.

How social media works —- You: “I’m going to eat a biscuit 🙂” —- The replies: “But I don’t like biscuits! 😡” “You shouldn’t eat that type of biscuit, you should eat this type of biscuit instead” “Biscuits are bad for you” “Allow me to educate you about biscuits. You

Time to turn off LBC in advance of an hour of we disabled being labelled as scroungers, cheats, etc. by folk who don't know how the system works & or been through it. eg getting higher PIP to get Motability allowance is so onerous it's driven claimants to suicide. Lewis Goodall
