TrishB @squirrelbrain @BarbaraBB of course, it‘s a long story! I‘m fine and love being back, just 2 days. My team haven‘t been back yet as they don‘t think it‘s safe and I have a bit of a stalemate. Which has reminded me how much fun it is being a manager. 4y

TrishB @Cathythoughts it was 😁 4y

Not a particularly inspiring cover for my #lunchtimeread this is works book club read. I‘ve already told myself I‘m not going to like it! We‘ll see.

MicheleinPhilly 😂😂😂The list for my work book club was just circulated for voting. I‘m already working on some behind the scenes lobbying because I‘ve already read half of them and they were all so-so or pan. 5y

TrishB @MicheleinPhilly that‘s usually me!! I‘ve now read 20 pages of this and don‘t like it ☹️ writing is lovely but just not my thing! Back to calls and will make my mind up later. 5y

TheBookHippie 😬🤦🏽‍♀️ I didn‘t like it either writing is quite lovely 🤷🏽‍♀️ 5y

Caroline2 I struggled with this one. Beautiful writing but arghhh, hardwork!!! 😑 5y

TrishB @TheBookHippie exactly! 5y

JennyM Me too @caroline2 - I didn‘t enjoy it at all despite the beautiful writing 5y

TrishB @Caroline2 it‘s gone on the coronabails pile for now! May have to read a summary for book club! 5y

TrishB @JennyM always glad for some reassurance! 5y

JennyM @TrishB I pretty much hated it by the end...if you make it that far 😬😂 Scrap that - I see the bail 😂 (edited) 5y

TrishB @JennyM I literally have no patience these days! 5y

Leftcoastzen I know people love her work , but when I read Housekeeping,I just thought it was claustrophobic, and hitting me with the austerity like a brickbat. 🙄 5y

TrishB @Leftcoastzen I felt the same about Housekeeping, though that at least had a story! 5y

TrishB @Balibee146 @Cinfhen been crying on phone with both my kids tonight. Hollow and sick now 💔💔 6y

Cinfhen I‘m so sorry @TrishB it‘s not an easy hurt that will just go away ☹️your kids fought a good fight and they‘ll keep on fighting✊🏼you‘ve done a great job raising them/ that‘s a cause to celebrate. Hope the graduation brings a silver lining to the week 😘😘 (edited) 6y

TrishB @Cinfhen 😘😘 6y

Balibee146 @TrishB I'm heartbroken. Dog-whistling xenophobia has one the day. Different up here of course but I find it terrifying really about the increasing diversity of who has voted him in, not just the usual Tory voter, and what that means for us a society. Enjoy the graduation with your wonderful family ❤️❤️❤️ 6y

Balibee146 *won lol.. Thanks autocorrect 6y

Balibee146 Now seeing BoJo thanking Labour voters for going Tory.... Sick to my stomach 😥😥😥😥 6y

Izai.Amorim My condolences. Something died today. You guys deserve much better than this. 6y

Leftcoastzen WTF? I‘m sorry.😟😢Happy Graduation though. 6y

TrishB @Balibee146 so right. It‘s also different in a Liverpool, all Labour seats. Which is why I‘m always so shocked when the rest of the country gives me a smack in the face! 6y

TrishB @Izai.Amorim yes, decency and support for our communities ☹️ 6y

TrishB @Leftcoastzen 😘 thank you 6y

Balibee146 @TrishB I know.... People's Republic of Liverpool ✊👊 Hope you all had a fantastic time together anyway 😘😘😘 6y
