Just watched Inside Out 2. Such a good film to watch with a near teen. I loved that they had a character called Ennui - I think my kid found it useful to name what he’s been experiencing recently. Now I just need Inside 5 where Riley is a 50 year old menopausal mum.


#booktwitter can anyone recommend a book for a bright twelve year old boy interested in politics, sociology and history. He’s just won a competition for an academic essay and the prize is a book up to the value of thirty pounds. Would love some suggestions - nothing too dry!


#TheLittleBigThings has anyone seen this and could you tell me if suitable for a nine year old? Many thanks


My spare room already has a lovely guest from Ukraine staying in it. But if you have a spare room do consider opening your doors to a refugee. It needn’t be for long - just enough time to get them on their way. Your room may be their only alternative to a park bench or doorway.

We're urgently looking for hosts for NINE young men in #London, with more referrals coming in all the time - we're looking for people who haven't hosted in a while, people new to hosting - anyone who can’t bear seeing new refugees slung into the streets. Please RT. Please help

For months now I’ve been inspired by @GingerGourmand‘s pics of her breakfasts and lunches. Today I made my own granola and think it might be the pinnacle of my achievements today.

"This is not the update wanted to give you. Your husband died about fifteen minutes ago. I'm so sorry." The rest of it is harder to say. He wasn't alone. The respiratory therapist and I stayed with him until the end, squeezing his hands, telling him it was okay to go.
