Dear Karenne
You have included fabulous links of great topical interest as always. I missed a few of them so will be busy catching up asap.
Thank you so much for including my tweet re Lake School post. I appreciate this enormously.
Best
Janet
This is awesome, Karenne!
I'm wondering how you managed to embed the tweets into your post so smoothly - they look great and it is brilliant to be able to click straight through the links.
Cool stuff - most impressed!

It wasn't too, too smooth - but it will be from next time onwards!

so I s'pose I should have embedded one of those tweets on this page, huh?
But then Xavier Damman "hacked" (redeveloped) it to make it much more user-friendly with less steps:
PubliTweet
Hope that helps!
