#OnThisDay in 1838 the Huskar Pit disaster killed 26 children. Four years ago I supported the #Huskar180 project to mark the 180th anniversary. This is one of the events at the memorial in Nabs Wood, Silkstone Common.

This - livesofthefirstworldwar.iwm.… (contributed by @HuttonCroft) - states he is not on @CWGC database as he was discharged through injury in 1917. As Linda states, the inscription would suggest that "his family certainly thought his wounds had contributed to his death"

Stepping back and making decisions about what to do and not do makes so much difference to my symptom levels AND my productivity!

A reminder for everyone living with #fatigue: Don't always give 100%. If you do, you will burn out. Stopping when you still have a bit of energy left isn't a failure - it's a massive achievement that will help you build a better tomorrow.
Book from stickmancommunications.co.uk…
ALT Small book 'Pocket book of pacing' held open. LHS title: Myth: If I don't give 100% I haven't tried hard enough and am giving in." Elite athletes only give 100% for special events (e.g. actual races) - after which they do less for a few weeks while they recover. In training, if they aim for 100% all the time they quickly get over-training injuries and performance worsens. This will happen to us too if we try to live at 100%... RHS has stickman looking tired but happy, labelled 'every day effort level'. Stickman collapsed in a little ball of exhausted misery 'special event effort level'.

This made me feel a whole lot better! I'm very fatigued. I thought I'd try some simple accounting...failed. This page reminded me that the energy for concentration is just as real - and needs respecting. Back to bed to recharge

Having a #hiddenDisability which limits energy and 'functioning time' means we tend to take time off for health reasons when essential - and increase the workload as soon as symptoms improve - which becomes almost constantly working at maximum capacity #Pacing #SelfCare 1/5

As #armisticeday approaches we think of those who gave their all. But pause too to think of the often unremembered survivors: men who walked to the edge & came back, left with debilitating injuries, or memories they would never escape from. For them, the Great War never ended. – at Hoyland, England

WHERE ARE YOU @sajidjavid? Patients are dying on streets, in their homes, for lack of ambulances. Your silence is absolutely deafening.
Every single ambulance trust is on black alert.
Patients are literally dying at home waiting for ambulances.
Are we really OK with this?
Are we really going to allow this to happen before our eyes?
It's unimaginable.
Surely we are better than this?

It’s a tough field but the government’s advice that wearing a mask depends on “whether you know the people or not” must be the stupidest thing they’ve ever said. COVID doesn’t care if you’re with a stranger or your Great Aunt Sal. It’s a virus, not Facebook.

WARNING. Pls RT. Beware your energy firm trying to push you to fix again when you come off a cheap fix.
They're desperate to push people off the price cap - where they're forced to supply energy below cost. The price cap's the cheapest poss tariff; fixes cost 30%+ more

A good thesis is a completed one. Sometimes the desire for it to be perfect can obscure the fact that it just needs to be finished. Also never think of it as the final thing you'll say on the subject. It's what you'll say at a particular moment in time.

Just listened to another great @OldFrontLinePod by @sommecourt. Fascinating to learn about the scale & diversity of @CWGC cemetery at Étaples. Like others, I suspect, my only knowledge of Étaples before this was from the 80s BBC TV drama Monocled Mutineer open.spotify.com/episode/3S0…

I did do Twitter guides for @TheHiddenBranch but judging from what you're saying, I'm unsure if they'd be of much use. thehiddenbranch.com/societie…
