So we did something nice yesterday! I’ve lost some memories after an #outofhospitalcardiacarrest in 2019, our wedding was one of them, so we did it again. Not a renewal but creating a new memory to replace the one I’ve lost @Lucky2BHere1 – at Stornoway, Scotland

This is a such a great addition to theory tests 🥰
DVSA is proud to introduce CPR and defibrillator questions to theory tests ❤️ There are over 40,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests yearly – would you know how to help? ow.ly/IJau50WF3vB @SaveALifeCymru @ResusCouncilUK @SaveALifeScot @NIRPC_NIAS

Delighted to receive my copy of @eddy_weather’s new book. Eddy has been sharing his vast knowledge with me for many years after he began a regular column in the @Sygazette where I was Chief reporter. Soon to be signed Eddy, remember you promised when I met you in Tesco! 🥰
Today my new book "Clouds" is published by Princeton University Press. It is a science book, but written in a popular style. In a new undertaking, we use mid-to-late 19th century impressionist art to show the various forms of clouds. Available here press.princeton.edu/books/ha…

#Shorthand is a skill that I have used far beyond my career in journalism. From those hours of practice in 2006/08, to completing that 100wpm exam, it was definitely worth it. I’ve dug out my old workbook (and CDs) to do some revision! @NCTJ_news

Causes of brain injury are varied but impacts are similar. I can relate to post by @TBINetwork. 25mins of downtime (time when heart was not beating properly and starving brain of oxygen) led to a brain injury that, nearly 6 yrs later, I still feel every day. #suddencardiacarrest

This 1st World War Memorial Plaque for George Alexander was in the loft of our house in Stornoway when we bought it 2012. Plaque says ‘He died for freedom and honour’ I’d love to hear from anyone who might be related or know anything about him #firstworldwar #deathpenny

What a fantastic night of celebration to mark the 15th Anniversary of @TheLeanneFund I’ve been a volunteer doing PR for the Fund for many years. An amazing team working hard every day to improve the lives of those affected by #Cysticfibrosis across Scotland

Today we celebrate Boxing Day in the UK, so named because cats spend the day exploring empty boxes discarded from Christmas Day* *This may not be true

Of all the lovely #christmaspresents I was lucky enough to get today, this crocheted coaster made by my 10 year old daughter was my favourite. She’s been using pocket money to buy wool and made a string of pressies 🥰 #crochet #MerryChristmas #handmadegift

Let us pray so that at Christmas there may be a ceasefire on all war fronts, in Ukraine, in the Holy Land, throughout the Middle East and the entire world. May weapons be silenced and Christmas carols resound!
