Always inspiring to hear Stanley Rockson talking about PF1 as a biomarker for the implications for #lipedema. #LipedemaWorldCongress2023 #LipedemaWorldCongress

Starting my journey away from the amazing #lipoedema #lipedema #WorldLipedemaCongress to SPIEL@Essen - #SPIEL24. Feel like I'm really getting good at Interrail now... but will this be over confidence?

When GWR is crowded & the carpet needs cleaning...Matador saves me with the light waterproof tarp for sitting on. Thanks for the tip Pack Hacker

Enjoying a quick elevate on my case before Eurostar departure to #Amsterdam. My #lipoedema legs thanked me for the inclined rest instead of "normal" bent knee sitting. Breathability & warmth with DermaSilk Therapeutic Clothing socks under merino.. Can you see my open toe compression underneath?

I had to hunt high & low Eurostar UK lounge for Positive News. Only 1 rack had a few copies so it must be as loved by other travellers as it is by me! I love Eurostar lounge, great service, but my pre-travel time is always better with this inspiring read.

@GWR Amazing sense of humour from train conductor Mikey on 18:57 Padd-Gt Malvern. I look forward to offering him the requested sight of my ticket & banana peel... & arriving 20 minutes before everyone else as I'm in carriage A! Great to see personalities encouraged @ work

This sounds interesting. Always good to see organisations looking to involve a range of people. So if you have a disability or #volunteer with people who do, then this might be for you?

Are you going to pay for a covid vaccine booster in April? Looks like the NHS eligibility in England will be very narrow. #diabetes & most other conditions not covered.

There's always time for a quick #lipedema #lipoedema leg elevation in the Eurostar UK lounge. Just remember not to put your laptop or fragile items in suitcase front pocket! Darn Tough UK socks are incredibly cheerful, warm & make my solidea compression unremarkable

Best train ever! Sunny on Eurostar with my faveourite train manager @ilseoceansoul & Jakko the purser. Best crew combo I'll be sad to say goodbye to them at Brussels My #lipoedema #lipedema legs are happily elevated on my case. Good food, nice view, lovely crew #PlanesNotTrains

Another long day in the company of enraged halfwits, convinced by far-right Twitter memes that the UK’s tradition of free speech is imperilled by *CHECKS NOTES* people being prosecuted for public violence, and inciting violence, under laws that have been used daily for decades.

I'm on a precious blue Eurostar all the way from Lon to Ams tonight. Seats are lovely & comfortable on red, but not being able to choose a seat makes such a difference. Do you plan to offer your seat selection tool or even bring back the Thalys direction preferences Eurostar?

I wish my house had Eurostar AC... it's lovely and cool on #9152 this evening. The blue fleet are like coming home, so familiar & full of happy, friendly, faces. I've enjoyed meeting TM Pancras this evening & learning about his perfect name.

Made my day to see I'm travelling on my beloved blue Eurostar. I can use an empty wheelchair space to elevate my #lipoedema #lipedema legs, making my travel so much more comfortable. Train manager on #9358 was super gracious & understanding, a credit to Eurostar

Raining outside but warm & social here on Eurostar 9259 Hérve is a treasure, it's lovely to meet a returning crew member from the launch days. Fascinating to compare onboard experiences then & now. Also Kougin's care & welcome briefing... a great crew to finish a great day!

Compression can be joyful Sometimes #lipedema #lipoedema can feel relentless but these are truly joyful, comfortable & are eye catching for the cats, not as medical garments Padded comfy feet, not at all tight. My wide calves stretch the fabric as you see but no tight sensation

Hey GWR please could you put signs on your trains indicating the way to luggage racks? I'm on 18.37 from Paddington & had 2 ppl refuse to move bags from seats. My Hidden Disabilities sadly didn't suggest I needed a seat more than their luggage!
