🎶 I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser.🎶 Yes, I'm older but not more mature, because I still don't like olives and I can't properly apply fake eyelashes. I suppose that means I'm still young at heart! Happy birthday to me!

Things you want to hear from your kids on Christmas: that's OK if I don't get any presents. All I need is love. ❤️ Things you don't want to hear from your kids on Christmas (while playing unsupervised downstairs): Mummy I need a hammer!😳 Merry Christmas from my home to yours

Went grocery shopping with my 6 year old son and got strong armed into buying a whoopee cushion. Guess how long it took me to regret that purchase. Non-stop fart pranks for the past 30 minutes. It might "accidentally" go missing overnight.

I also got bullied into buying brownies, pizza, and hot chocolate mix because his daddy is a "thousandaire"! He was in the store just balling. Richie Rich! 🤣 spending his inheritance now!

I really love being a part of vibrant conversations focused on solutions to tricky societal challenges. By 2030, digital solutions can help to cut global emissions by 15%.
How do we integrate innovation and tech solutions to accelerate procurement strategies? Our panel of leaders from @techUK, @InnovatnGateway and @DigiCatapult are discussing this! #SUSTxProc22

The new PM will need to work to restore the confidence of the 🇬🇧 tech sector. @techUK's research found high staff and energy costs have darkened the outlook for tech. However our members also told us how a new PM could turn this around👇👇 @techmonitorai techmonitor.ai/policy/digita…
