Lovely humans, I'm training to run a half-marathon for @scotrefugeecouncil.bsky.social in May! I only started running last year so this is a big challenge for me - but I know the challenge for refugees to rebuild their lives is even greater. All donations/shares would be HUGELY appreciated!! ❤️❤️❤️

Call the midwife is speaking for a generation of healthcare professionals tonight. "I'm tired, worse than tired. What good do we do, what difference do we make?" "They keep on coming, and we keep on going, because that is the pact we made." I am apparently a nun in 1970s Poplar.

It's arrived! There's no infuser, but this seperate one I ordered fits perfectly. 1 teapot, 1 sugar pot with lid, 2 cups, + a spare lid. All in a fancy box* *that will def be kept in case it comes in use.
