This demands four minutes of your time. Nadine Ghouri is a freelance journo - one in a 'loose coalition' with Afghanistan connections who are desperately trying to get contacts exposed by their US/UK connections, on the evacuation list fm Kabul. Heartrending honesty.

I've been contacted by funeral director re Uillium (Bill) Alex Riddoch, born in Forres 21:12:1952, then living in Portree, Skye. He died suddenly, intestate, in Glastonbury & his ashes will be scattered unless a family member comes forward. Can anyone help? @artmaccarmaig

Just watched this and really recommend. Very raw & emotional, and quite terrifying in parts.

Great idea. We could all help the small businesses to keep going in the short term by buying gift vouchers that can be used later. 👇🏼 #cashflow

CHECK FOR HEDGEHOGS!!! – at Scotland, United Kingdom
Hedgehog Bottom (@Hedgehog_Bottom) profile pictureHedgehog Bottom@Hedgehog_Bottom26 Feb 2020
PLEASE spread the word. People are out with strimmers already and the hedgehogs are getting cut to ribbons in their nests. We've just taken delivery of a beautiful female that's been all but sliced in half and is still alive and trying to curl. I'm not going to post the photo.
