Primary school lunches are free in London (thank you!) which makes a massive difference. But secondary school lunches are so expensive and not healthy ! Our secondary school has a donation based secondhand uniform “shop” which is brilliant.

I’ve been in awe of Vicky’s work for years, often quoting or sharing her views and learning, helpful to so many. I met her at Service Design in Gov a few years ago, it was pleasure to talk with her.
Her impact and voice will be very much missed.
My condolences to her friends and family.

Anna Jones’ cookbooks are good for this.
Things that work well for us:
- veg curry, with extra herbs, chopped chilli, raita, chutney, poppadums, naan
- black bean stew, with extra salsa verde, yoghurt, cheese, pickled red onions
- minestrone soup, with extra stir fried greens, lemon, croutons

A dark expanse of sky, glow of city lighting and then the sliver of moon and bright pin point of Venus.

What’s worse is when you text back and then they continue to send you VM in return!
It’s the “it’s easier for me to send a VM” - yes but it’s not easier for me to listen to them 🤣

I find them really useful for storing all sorts of things - from spices, to taking small amounts of something camping eg washing up liquid, to sequins and craft materials etc
