Lovely to see familiar faces here and make new connections. A wee (re)introduction. I’m Joanne and I love making good things happen through innovation, celebrating others doing the same - usually with a side serving of Scottish culture/football and a few gardening and dog pics for good measure.

Ok I ventured back to the dark side as the Scotland football chat is lacking here and it just seems to be a of miserable and problematic men over there. It’s beyond grim. Keen to find my #scotlandfootball people here.

Random ask to the universe but would love to speak to anyone working in #psychology / #occupationaltherapy or private healthcare in UK to understand practices related to sleep disorders. This is a research project - trying to piece together if there is a market for new CPD training in this space.

Best Halloween costumes ? Let’s hear them. I spotted kids dressed as the Ibiza final boss, a jet2 air hostess and also a Claudia Winkleman- probably very UK and kids meme specific but marvellous work all round 😂

First trip to Anfield and definitely not the last. It’s a special place and seeing players like Salah play in the flesh always feels like a privilege even in a friendly he dazzled. ⚽️ #footballmaw
