Another thing, you don't need to read it all, and to expand on your point Owen, you don't have to respond to every point someone else is making on the internet, especially if you don't know them

Would you say that small charities need to be concerned about this on behalf of the people they support Andy?

We are Forward Carers and we care for carers across the country. Forward Carers is a carers support service, here to make a difference to the lives of people caring for an elderly frail, sick or disabled family member.

If you haven't already, request a Carers Assessment which is a legal right; check out @carers-uk.bsky.social and/or your local Carers organisation eg Birmingham has Forward Carers forwardcarers.org.uk; get good sleep xx

It probably wasn't one of my better ideas to start reading Bluesky (yes, the whole platform) at 11.30pm but here we are...thanks to @odcamp.uk @paulclarke.com and @blangry.bsky.social amongst others for making it feel (a bit) like the good old days πŸ˜€

Was hoping you wouldn't ask me to remember that...I think it was something to do with street furniture? Did you used to use the term 'Magpie'?

Getting home after #ODCamp was similarly time-consuming: lift (from an Edinburgh-based friend) to Edinburgh Airport, late (and delayed) flight to Dublin, coach to Galway, local bus, then walked the last 1.2km #GladToBeHome
