Well Aberdeen, it’s been a blast. Chicken soup for the soul was seeing pals from school. We lost a friend far too soon this year - so determined to catch up having maybe only seen each other a handful of times in 30 years. We are all still 16 in our heads at least ❤️✨

Always conflicted about @BBCCiN #ChildrenInNeed. Disabled families generally loathe the tragic music-soundtracked videos of families like us (& btw we’re gubbed when our kids grow up/aren’t cute anymore - ain’t no ‘adults in need’) but also…it funds vital services for L so 🤷‍♀️


Slow hand clap for those who've brought down the bill. I wasn't necessarily convinced it was the right answer but god knows we need urgent reform of social care, driven by the needs of those who rely on the service to live their lives - not those who deliver it.

Two department heads for a department of efficiency is objectively great satire

🚨 BREAKING: Trump announces Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will head the Department of Government Efficiency. It will "slash excess regulations" and "cut wasteful expenditures."

Hi @campbellsonline does ‘a make shift bathtub for a baby pygmy hippo’ count as unauthorised use of this crate? Asking for a friend called Haggis 🦛💛 (If so, soz)

Tomorrow is another day after all. Beautiful sunrise and light this morning.

I am appreciating #UntilIKillYou (not sure you could enjoy it) but Anna Maxwell-Martin’s accent is very odd. Sounds like it’s Irish or West Country, though I think the character is supposed to be Canadian with a bit of Scottish 🧐


Well. Some minor but disruptive stuff cropped up today for L’s routine (all sorted now) and honestly that and the *absolute state* of the world has left me in a mental health funk. Have to admit defeat and resort to PJs and bed to try and calm my brain.

It’s this though isn’t it. For all the talk of Kamala not telling people who she was, Donald told people EXACTLY who he was and they all thought yeah that sounds cool. That’s what’s most damning.

Last thought before attempting to go to bed: if Americans are willing to reelect Trump after everything he’s said in the past three months, there’s nothing Harris could’ve done.



Where does the time go - 20 years ago today 🎉 This is my favourite photo - it was a Nov wedding on the west coast, after all. I guess we might have imagined we’d be doing something more glamorous to celebrate 2 decades but managed a nice meal while L was at youth club. Life eh?

Moo Deng? Who deng? Introducing… Haggis 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Otto and Gloria have welcomed an ADORABLE pygmy hippo calf! She is doing well, but we’ll be keeping the hippo house closed for the time being so that our expert keepers can keep a close eye on mum and baby at this sensitive time 🦛💛


Coping mechanism: stepped away from mainlining political podcasts to instead start re-listening to the exquisite #TheMirrorAndTheLight ahead of the BBC dramatisation starting next Sunday.


I wondered what on earth had happened here - looked virtually finished a year ago but was still boarded off. I don’t know how on earths we plan to tackle the NHS backlog if we can’t expedite issues like this. Hopeless.

Speaking of stonking journalism (see @Channel4 #Dispatches) this special episode of @TheNewsAgents by @lewis_goodall exposes the horrific thru-the-looking-glass state of abortion care in Florida - where drs are investigated but religious,unregulated clinics are state-funded.

In a special report,@lewis_goodall tells a disturbing tale of fire and fury in the Sunshine State. In May, Florida enacted a six week abortion ban. This is a story about women’s health being put in jeopardy and of a growing theocratic strain at the heart of American politics.…

📺WATCH: Women will go to jail under Trump’s federal abortion ban.


Holy hell.

Trump: "Can you imagine a wife not telling a husband who she's voting for? Did you ever hear anything like that? Even if you had a horrible -- if you had a bad relationship, you're gonna tell your husband."



Stonking bit of journalism by @Channel4 and @thetimes on #Dispatches shedding light on the private wealth of royals via the contribution of rents by public sector and charities to Duchies of Cornwall and Lancaster. Important discussion regardless of your view of monarchy.
