redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 2hIt’s half past midnight. I rang for medical assistance for my 92 year old mum around 5:30. She has food stuck in her gullet. She can’t swallow water even. It just comes back with burps and sticky jelly saliva. I’ve had to put her to bed. NHS111 service isn’t fit for purpose. 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 4hWhat about ending the ridiculous war he started with Iran that we are ALL paying the stupid price for!? 080
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Well in Johnson's case he was more than likely on the bloody payroll! 170
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Russia is the enemy of Europe and America supports that stance. How the world has changed in my adulthood. 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Absolutely despicable behaviour towards European allies. I don't think we will be allies for much longer. America is a disgrace. 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 11/10/2026I don't know how to find out if he voted for Brexit or not. I suspect he doesn't actually believe in it. But that's no use to us. 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Stuart Andrew. Our MP. Actually, as a local MP he's pretty good. He get's stuck in and has been active ever since he took over (we have lived here 30 years, its always been Tory). His letter was quite long and gave a decent stab at explanation. But it was still a "no" because - referendum. 100
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 11/10/2026It is. She’s not the woman she was. 010
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 11/10/2026That’s so sad. Mum’s trying but her walking about scares me. So am I making it worse by saying she must have someone with her? 100
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 11/10/2026The last line of that needs adding. “Which Trump started unnecessarily.” 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 11/10/2026I’ve had my well worded but still a “stock” refusal to support it letter back. 110
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 11/10/2026And it’s now on my kindle. I had no idea that the witchfinder general was only 27 when he died. Cricky. A bad ‘un. 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Jesus! That’s totally taking the piss! Hope you found a good chippy on the way home to enjoy the act of eating again. 000

redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 10/10/2026It’s getting dangerous though. Have a plan. Fully formed and prepared. In case. It may only need to be temporary. But a lot of wealthy Jews hung around in Germany believing it wouldn’t happen until it was too late to leave. 010

redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 10/10/2026I don’t know what is going on with mum. She’s got weaker since returning from hospital. She’s a goldfish remembering what I tell her. She can’t even decide what she wants to eat. I’m doing her some fish fingers, chips, mushy peas for lunch. But the carer will do tea. I’ve had to write it down?! 120
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Eventually all that supplementary testosterone he takes will hopefully make something go pop! He’s taking so much he’s high on it. Not healthy. 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 10/10/2026He doesn’t know shame. If he did he wouldn’t be a convicted rapist and a suspected paedophile. 020
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 10/10/2026That anyone is willing to do any kind of business deal with a mass murderer is sickening. That Trump’s done one with Putin is vile. 100
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026What happened to this man? Greed I suppose. He should be ashamed. 010
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026And now he's supporting Russia's war machine against Ukraine and the rest of Europe by filling Putin's coffers with money from the newly announced floor of Russian oil to the market to counter-act Trump's ridiculous war in the Gulf. 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026So that's it. Trump is allowing Putin to sell billions of barrels of oil to the market to make up for his shit-show in the gulf. He's now state sponsoring Russia's war chest. Trump is a traitor to America and the West. Lock him up for god's sake America! We've all had enough. 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026This man sold his soul to the devil for money and power. He looks haunted by it. Mr Big Shoes is ridiculous. 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026What policy goals! All they really want to do is break everything. They are the MAGA of the U.K. Rats in a sack. 010
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I will laugh and play with my cat. Look at my garden, tidy the wood shed ready for a delivery and read. The world can sod-off. Oh and it’s pizza 🍕 night. 020
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I’m not sure he ever did. Hence the vast number of times he’s mentioned in the Epstein files. 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Ah, proper bit of history then. I’ve read a couple of novels about the Underground Railroad. One just last year. It was so hard for the slaves to escape. Slaves! And now if you look at MAGA you can just imagine how miffed they are that they can’t still keep them! 010
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026He’s such a kind looking man. Gentle but steely. Hes very clever and intelligent. You are so lucky to have him. We were lucky to have been able to borrow him for a bit at the Bank Of England. Thank you. 010

redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026America is destroying itself. Hegseth is crazy. I learned this afternoon that the prisoner is a paraplegic in a wheelchair. Imagine how that’s going to look. Firing squad murdering a helpless man in a wheelchair. He acted evilly. But an eye for an eye never works. Americans fear god apparently? 140
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I can’t stand that bloke. Just the sound of his voice sets my teeth on edge. Seeing his plastic fake face is more than I can take. Poor woman presenter, having to work around him. 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Is it horror or just a murder mystery? I enjoy the latter. Can’t do horror at all. I saw you have a short story in a spooky season collection the other day. I’ve read the sister volume so might get that one for Halloween. 000
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I’m glad you have been able to relax into the process. You were so worried at the start. 110

redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 08/10/2026The Russians have always been aiming to residential blocks. They want Ukrainians to die. They used to dress it up by saying the residences were cover for military sites, just as the Israelis did about Gaza. It's genocide. Murder. A war crime. 2227

redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Now there's a man who deserves to die from some really awful no longer controllable illness. Smallpox? I don't think they've got their hands on that yet. But give them time. 010
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Better work/life balance for those having to run 2 or 3 jobs at once to survive. 010

redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 08/10/2026It's a poor man's solution, the worst they could do as folic acid is very inferior to folate, which is what we need. But it's better than nothing. I am getting heartily sick of men in power (or wannabes) being total douch-bags. All opinions and no common sense or kindness. 3562
redballoonsue.bsky.social @redballoonsue.bsky.social · 08/10/2026There are flies with more sense in my garden. They get into mum's little home and evade me for days with great skill. He's just a very unpleasant creature. I'd save the flies first. 2120
