Our director Julia had a great morning with David @listeningwalker as he stopped in on his 12000 miles walk around Samaritans branches. Good luck David - you are an inspiration. @samaritans @SamaritansScot

It rained and it rained and it rained. Piglet told himself that never in all his life, and he was goodness knows HOW old - three, was it, or four? - never had he seen so much rain. Days and days and days. Every day the water got a little higher. ~A.A.Milne #rain #flooding
