The loss of mobile phone/internet in Whitehaven is having unexpected consequences. My local cafe has taken omelettes off the menu and substituted scrambled eggs because none of us could spell omelette and we couldn't ask Google!

Our days plans have fallen slowly apart leaving me with 5adult & 1child tickets. I’d love to get them to another family that could use them. Short notice - it’s today @ 3.30 in the NCH.

Losing someone is a journey.
There is no end to the loss, there is only a learned skill on how to stay afloat, when it washes over.
Be kind to those who are sailing this stormy sea this Christmas. A missing loved one..an empty chair

Be careful if you are out and about in #Dublin at Christmas. Came close to having my phone and bag snatched in broad daylight in Temple Bar this afternoon. The thief was well dressed. Walked away casually. Didn't run when I copped what he was doing. Very professional.

The student sitting across from me on today’s 11.05 Sligo - Connolly left something behind when he got off in Maynooth.
Any chance of a few retweets so I can get the message to him and get him reunited with his belongings!

"Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity."
