I need some new audibooks - whodunits, classic, police proc, or modern. But NOT thrillers or overly graphic. Any suggestions? @GleesonLoopykaz What are the top 5 you've read/listened to recently?

Can we now stop pretending diseases like cervical cancer affect men, and instead write health campaigns for "WOMEN" rather than "PEOPLE WITH CERVIXES"? That wording alienates thousands of women who don't have a clue that campaign is aimed at them. Ty. https://t.co/9FwDzgXZyJ

It’s genuinely odd that somewhere along the way, women’s rights became a right-wing thing. The left should reflect on that a little.

👏 About bloody time we had to stop pandering to the nonsense.

This is fascinating to me. I don’t think you’d have seen this ten minutes ago. The BBC interviewer is sooooo over this. There were no fake compliments. No fawning all over him. The spell is really lifting. Or am I reading too much into this?

Women exist. Glad we've cleared that up.

I'd listened to several of @JaneCaseyAuthor 's Maeve Kerrigan series before I realized I'd missed some of the earlier books. Joy! Racing through them now. So good. Just finished the somewhat creepy and terrifying The Stranger You Know. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. https://t.co/Xoh96jixmz

@travelmail 2/2 I have pics. Today, the prices I wanted were quoted at CHF1,845.50 for 2 people (GVA flights). Best price when I call? CHF2,874 - same flights. I've tried 4 computers, 4x debit/credit cards, Paypal. Lots of people calling BA to complain about this. They just🤷‍♀️

So I call in, and they can't help with the issue, but claim "best price" is more than double the price I see quoted online, every time I look, and on all different devices. Why is it doing this? Plenty of money in my accounts. Amount approved by bank. Can anyone help?

If this was a book, I'd need to write a better ending. But dying with cancer aged 50 and full of the will to live - and to thrive - isn't a good ending. I don't know what is. I'll miss you, Lynn. That's it. That's the end. 😢

I know it's called survivor's guilt. But call it what you will, I feel like the weaker she got, the stronger I got. And that's so unfair. Our lives were so similar in so many ways. No rhyme nor reason. I wish I had a moral to the story - or to life. 🧵

I feel like I have stolen her life. Why her and not me? I'm now skiing every weekend, longer and better, thanks to her brilliant ski tips and advice. I'm exercising more, enjoying life more. Our diagnoses were months apart, but I was cured and she was killed. 🧵

We've lost an brilliant, dynamic, indefatigable friend. But here's the secret I can't tell anyone else, only here because I'm a little anonymous. 🧵

Sadly, Lynn died yesterday morning, with her new husband by her side. We're all devastated. She'd kept her illness secret from everyone except Mark, Tim, and me until two weeks ago. Her friends and family are in shock, but she didn't want their pity. She just wanted to live. 🧵

Her final requests to me were to help Mark with French admin, which anyone who lives in France (or anywhere, probably) will find both poignant, incredibly sensible, and amusing. Sometimes life - in France, the UK, and elsewhere - really does come down to death and taxes. 🧵

Even if you've been together 34 years, living together, owning homes together, nearly all that time, if you're not married, the law considers that you're not family. They were family to each other. But you need a piece of paper to prove it.🧵

On Wednesday, we watched Lynn and Mark get married in her hospital room. She was so happy. They were both so happy for that brief 10 minutes. She was relieved Mark would be financially and legally protected now because no matter what your will says, laws can override them. 🧵
