@BBCRadio3 @MannGeorgia #playlister Departures? It just has to be @official_joeh Joe Hisaishi's glorious cello music, especially the Memory theme, for the soundtrack of the 2008 film Departures #okuribito
Laughter in the Lords as Cabinet Office minister Lord True repeats for the benefit of peers what his colleague Michael Ellis told MPs earlier this afternoon in the standards in public life UQ. Even Baroness Evans, Leader of the House of Lords, seems to find it all a bit funny.
@Edinburgh_CC @PoliceEdinburgh @SpokesLothian Forrest Road is a carpark 5.30pm Friday
Apparently “Dr” and “woman” do not match on British airways. Looking forward to their reply.
@MannGeorgia @BBCRadio3 @JoeHisaishi 's Path of the Wind from Studio Ghibli's My Neighbour Totoro.
I felt quite overdressed, #cycling across #Edinburgh and converging with the #nakedbikeride today.
Once a male has gone thru puberty there will always be a large retained performance advantage & bone structure. Why are we asking females to accept competing with a known disadvantage before we even start? Females are not men with less testosterone. Compete with your sex
Duh! Isn't it #commonknowledge that DRC is a large landlocked country? (If not, why not?) This is the kind of mistake that shouldn't have been possible, let alone not spotted.
When your GEOGRAPHY exam board can’t even produce an accurate map of Africa! 😳GCSE paper 3! @Edexcel_Geog @PearsonEdexcel An apology to the people of Gabon 🇬🇦 and Republic of the Congo is urgently needed 😬 #geographyteacher #gcses2022
@BBCRadio3 #EssentialClassics Marsyas #Playlist ? Surely has to include 'I've got you under my skin' Ouch!
First #IDF kills journalist #ShireenAbuAqla and then tries to smash her coffin; relentless #IsraeliCrimes
The closest video of the #Israeli police suppressing the funeral procession of Shireen Abu Aqleh as the coffin was leaving the French hospital towards the cemetery
How is May shaping up?
Across my four years studying law at Glasgow I was denied just about every request for additional support from the law school. Great to read about the shift they’ve made to provide more flexibility to support a male international player.
This weekend sees @Scotlandteam competing in the #SixNations 🏉 We spoke with @UofGlasgow student Ross Thompson about combining his professional #rugby career with a @UofGLaw degree. Learn about his story with the @GlasgowWarriors and national team here bit.ly/3i1ln2k
Who wants another bookshop in Edinburgh? ✋ @EdiCommBookshop is trying to raise £15,000 to open a second-hand shop that will see all of its profits go to chosen Edinburgh charities. Read all about it and make a donation here: bit.ly/3AwcxCh
Demanding that a cyclist get out of your way on the road is like walking into a restaurant and demanding someone vacate a table for you.
@BBCRadio3 a fitting complement to John Adams for the #playlist would be Joe Hisaichi's The Rain from the soundtrack of Kikujiro. Joe Hisaichi is poorly neglected by R3, and his music is always a delight!
Spot Keir Starmer out campaigning for a £15 minimum wage for workers in fast food restaurants. He seems to have forgotten all about that now.
Why is the @BBCr4today still calling Liz Truss the first female Foreign Secretary? That was Margaret Beckett! Put down the Tory press release and tell the truth!
How far have the Taliban actually advanced? Are they in Kent?
And once you relinquish road position by entering a cycle lane you then have to beg drivers to let you back in when the cycle lane inevitably disappears.
