Not being able to stand is truly emotionally painful, especially when people scorn you for not standing up for elderly.
So let’s see if actually wearing these guys actually gets me a seat when I need it the most. #DisablityMatters

Pleased to have been asked to speak at this tonight.
My day job brings me to tears regularly when I see how people are struggling to get by.
My campaigning heart lies with reducing food injustice at all times.
Politics ties itself in red ribbon at all times, but we are getting there. #FoodJustice

Returning to work on a Friday before a weekend felt like a total waste of my time.
Takes a lot to gear up only to gear back down except with worry lines.
This year I’ll be BOLD and as part of this, cut out the time wasters.
Happy Saturday!

This was fun today.
Even more interesting is the working class roots of the boat race.
Not sure why I always imagined the bridges were there, not that men used to ferry you across, and other men would bet on who could cross it the fastest.
Until April Putney #Sport
