Oh I see. I'm a bit behind. Most of the scenes tbh. I wish there was a storyline in #TheArchers I could get behind.

The scene where the wedding guests are eating the flower and produce. #TheArchers

Thank you - I would love to come!
(Hope you feel better soon 🤒)

@kosjenka.bsky.social Hi - I have emailed Jasmina on what I think is her work email address. My contact details are here if you want to get in touch: www.gla.ac.uk/schools/educ...
It would be good to continue the conversation 🙂

New silliness low in #TheArchers tonight.
Sacrilege to do this with the Flower & Produce Show 🥬 🥮 💐

Also important to reflect on which groups & individual CYP might benefit from #accessarrangements, eg a quiet room, reader, scribe, movement breaks, comfy clothes, extra time, fidget items, laptop, standing desk, SEMH support …

TY @thewoodbug.bsky.social 🙏
