The current blanket ban on assisted dying in the UK is causing widespread pain and suffering. This needs to change. It's time for an assisted dying law. #YesToDignity

Interested in a chat about life and death? Come to a friendly Death Cafe. It’s not a performance. It’s just a few humans sharing questions, experiences and lack of experience over a cuppa (with cake). Join us. tramway.org/event/74797149-a…

Hi @HeathrowExpress - what is it I’m missing about this ticket that I bought at Heathrow to get the Express to Paddington (machine said it’s a day ticket for bus train tube) … and when it pulls in to Paddington I have to buy another ticket. This doesn’t seem to work on Express…

On my way to Mallaig… @ScotRail excellent announcing Harry Potter bridge for delighted visitors. Train running late for my Mallaig-loch Boisdale ferry. Do you alert @CalMacFerries or just too complicated?

In 2017 I won 2 awards from @GSofA for my work on funerals - the subject of my Masters in Design Innovation. Why should a State Funeral be reserved for Heads of State? Collect pennies in national insurance and every funeral can be paid for. blog.finalfling.com/masters-… @BBCScotland
