Prepare for a long, cathartic blog post hitting your doorsteps today about #mycoronawedding . Nothing is going to stop me becoming your wife @AndrewConducts . Worldwide pandemics could not keep me away.

This is just crazy, the priories of @emirates needs a serious rethink. Being allergic to nuts is the SECOND MOST COMMON food allergy - it’s also on the rise. You need to get a grip on reality Emirates.
As an update Twitter, @emirates cannot do anything for nut allergies, nor will they refrain from serving nuts on the flight. So: anyone with a nut allergy please be aware, they prioritise ensuring a wide selection of snacks over ensuring someone doesn’t die on route. (1)

Not impressed @emirates. Been told I have to pack a packed lunch on my wedding day because they refuse to accommodate my nut allergy on my honeymoon flight?! To Mauritius! That’s hours worth of food. Please resolve! #notimpressed #whatabouttheotherway

50 years ago today, @TheBeatles gathered at EMI Studios for one of the most prolific photoshoots of their career. A policeman held up the traffic as photographer Iain Macmillan took six shots of the group walking across the zebra crossing just outside the studio. #AbbeyRoad

Outstanding performance by @baibaskride of Tchaikovsky’s violin concerto and of course @BBCNOW once again performed superbly with Shostakovich’s 5th Symphony. @tSondergard you will be sorely missed!
