That's truly remarkable, I'm always in awe of people who foster, I really don't think I could do it. It's a special kind of selflessness. I can absolutely believe that people who have been in care are more likely to end up in prison, though. So many of them never really stood a chance. πŸ˜”

I had my head in my hands three times during the last episode.
Definitely just keeping up because @thecidershedpod.bsky.social is so awesome.

Recently got into @onambridge.bsky.social too.

It's good to know there are others out there with a similarly exasperating relationship to #TheArchers

Really enjoyed the latest @onambridge.bsky.social podcast, can't believe I have only recently found this gem :-) here are two word clouds based on your conversations and on the number of times the characters were mentioned. Keep up the irrelevant and entertaining work :-)

Yeesh. It's so complicated - and appears to contradict the official guidance, too. Oh, GOD. I hate this. My daughter might end up carrying the can for my decision to leave the UK. I'll have a chat with the UKCISA and see what they reckon... Thank you, Auntie Jean! x

It is, indeed, at least for students who live in Scotland. But actually, the government guidance is the same for all UK universities so I'll talk to anybody, at least to get a start in the topic.

Hello lovely listeners. Does anybody know anybody who works in or near Glasgow Uni admissions department? I'd love to have a quick chat with somebody there, or indeed with anybody who knows anything about home/foreign student fees in the UK. Could one of you help? Jeff x #TheArchers

Thank you, Sarah. He really was. Considering that he was a mutt from Romania, we really lucked out. An absolute sweetheart, outside and in. He's left a huge hole in our lives. x

#TheArchers Sad times at AOTC as we say goodbye to our executive director, Jazzie Thomas. Like all good directors, Jazzie’s authority was quiet but meaningful. Always ready with support and sympathy, he was an unforgettable part of the team. RIP Jazzie, the best of good boys.

Susan: β€œHow did you hear about George’s attack?”
Clive: β€œI was in that standalone New Year police drama with Sue from #Outnumbered?”
Susan: β€œBut that’s… NON-CANONICAL!” #TheArchers

Yes, and not just him, either! Utterly inexplicable. "Are you threatening me, Chris?" "Yes, I very much am, Clive. Now sod off." #TheArchers
