I don't post on here much any more, but I'm so proud of my group @WritersOfWhit for working to finish Harry's book. I loved working with our small writing team. Harry's novel draws on a 50 year career in social work and is well worth a read. ❤️writersofwhitstable.co.uk/po…

Yesterday I shared an idea to support Ukraine by booking rooms for rent on AirBNB. 24 hours later, 100's of people are booking AirBnBs in Ukraine as a way to send immediate monetary assistance to people in hard-hit areas. The messages in response from the hosts are so moving

🧵 A New Year's Eve tale: June 1990 "Hello, could you tell me when the next train to Birmingham is?" "One moment, ah yes, it's at 1:40." "Brilliant!" "People aren't usually this excited about Birmingham." "I've got a date with Sam, I can't believe it!" "Have fun young man." 1/12

Scare Road this year was bonkers and even an emergency trip to the Co-op couldn't save the day - 500 sweets gone by 6.30pm and reluctantly we had to quit. This year our car was a green monster. 1,000 sweet bulk buy next year! #whitstable #HappyHalloween2021
We’ve counted our trick and treating kids since 2014, so I made a pumpkin coloured graph. 🤓🎃We handed out 338 sweets! This year’s spooky fun involved a giant car ghost, noodle vomit and pumpkin brains. #HappyHalloween

Thanks to @TonyROUSE15 for inviting me onto the Belmont Banter #podcast. We talked about @WhitstableTown and how I got slightly obsessed with football tactics, Marcelo Bielsa, and becoming the team’s opposition scout.
My lovely husband @StephenBartley on turning a lockdown football tactics obsession into a useful role as opposition scout for @whitstabletown. So proud of him! #footballscouting #footballscouts #whitstable

Time for me to once again point out that if the modern pentathlon simply changed its rules so that the five contests were chosen by drawing lots from all possible Olympic events on the morning of day one it would be the greatest sport ever.

Not a dream any more. Fair play to ⁦@sterling7⁩ big sister who took him training every night on THREE buses while his “warrior”mum cleaned offices. Worth a read tonight theplayerstribune.com/articl…

This started out as a thing to get my 13-year-old away from screens and out of the house... It ended up being mostly me devising clues and hiding secret coins around town! Have a go if you live in Whitstable. 🙂whitstabletreasure.co.uk
My husband's a WTFC fanatic, and this is probably the only action left in the Isthmian South East Football League this season! It's a big game and we're a goal down. Please vote Oystermen. 🙂⚽️🙏

It’s the big 4th round clash. This is a tough draw for The Oystermen against The Sarnies, a team with lots of bread and plenty going on in the middle! C’mon people of Whitstable VOTE OYSTER! @whitstabletown @WhitstableLive @GoWhitstable

I love @parentping takes about 30 seconds a day and the results are often interesting. It feels really important in these troubled times to seek parent's views on kid's wellbeing and schooling.
Alongside teacher opinions on home learning, we really want to find out from PARENTS about what is happening at home. To do this, parents please sign up to @ParentPing in the App Store. It’s free, quick & going to change what we know about remote schooling. Pls RT.

Didn't really have a plan for New Year's Eve, ended up watching @marlowetheatre pantomime and having a proper family laugh. Well done to all involved for creating a great alternative to a theatre show. Loved the way they subverted panto rules with no audience. 😃👻
