A mother sent me a poem that her 16-year-old autistic child wrote with one of my poetry prompts. I think I will read it every day.
Hello @StornowayBand - we're looking fwd to your gig at the @EarthshipBTN on Fri. There's a train strike (none after 8.30pm) &bus takes 3.5h. Wondering if there are any Stornofans who would be up for sharing a taxi back to London, or who have car space for 2? Grateful for RT!
Please RT: At 3pm on 23.04.23 a UK-wide test of an emergency alert system will take place on EVERY MOBILE PHONE in the country. This loud alarm will sound on your phone and make it vibrate, even if it is switched to silent or notifications are off. (1/2)

Adore this. Wish I could speak Welsh! Proud of my 🏴roots 🤩❤️@ifordbridge @alexvirji @abbas_virji
I couldn’t possibly love this @NewyddionS4C video more.
These little Ukrainian evacuees now attend a Welsh-medium primary school, and their Cymraeg is utterly delightful
😭❤️🏴
Tears pouring. I still get asked this all the time. Mostly well-intentioned but sometime really othering. What a genius @rizwanahmed

Not going to lie, this brings back trauma.
When my family first received a notice to be deported back to Cyprus, my mum would hide my brother and me at family friends' houses in fear that the UK border agency would come knocking on our door.
Your dream was my nightmare.
