Mr Matthew Fido

Huge news, I reached a half century of blood donations last week for @GiveBloodNHS Helmet off, bat raised to the crowd. Shout out to Team Lincoln for their support.

Lots of interesting history days out over the summer holidays. Lots of stories and photos I could use in history lessons this year. Not many stories as incredible as those told in the @LordAshcroft gallery at IWM. So glad I got down there before they're removed.

@ealcon448 Who is that on the bottom row?

@RHVlogs_ @thecultraspod Matt Rhead 🐐 @LincolnCity_FC

The end of an era! Give me some of your best #Vanaramamen! I’ll start off with an obvious one: Michael Cheek

I scored my first ever 11 a side goal the weekend after he passed, and I'll always have a feeling he helped guide it in as it trickled over the line up at Christ's while playing for the Shed FC.

He gave myself and many other lads our first opportunity to play 11 a side and men's football back in the day. Will forever be grateful to this wonderful bloke.

Buzzing to playing in this tomorrow in memory of our under 18s gaffer, Andy Whitworth. Hopefully us old boys can put on a good show for him, all proceeds going to support RAF Benevolent Fund @RAFBF. Feel free to come and support if you're about.

Habemus Papam! We have a Pope! The Cardinals gathered in the Vatican’s Sistine Chapel have elected Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost as the 267th Pope, who took the name Pope Leo XIV.

@adefty Be intrigued to read about the 'what-if' scenarios if there had been STV, or even supplementary vote like in previous years for mayoral elections.

There’s been some discussion of tactical voting in the Lincolnshire mayoral election with questions about whether Labour voters would vote Conservative to keep Reform out. Ultimately even if all those who voted Labour had switched to Conservative, Reform would still have won.

Civic duty done 🗳 ☑️ Was voting for Rob Waltham for Greater Lincolnshire Mayor anyway, however, he's also your tactical vote if you want to stop Reform. Appreciate that would involve some serious nose holding, but surely it's worth it against the alternative...

England is a great nation. A great people. Let’s cherish our past, not forget it. Happy St George’s Day! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

"You first." #PopeFrancis

The King’s message following the death of Pope Francis.

Pope Francis died on Easter Monday, April 21, 2025, at the age of 88 at his residence in the Vatican's Casa Santa Marta.

Evil may have its hour, but God will have His day. This is one of the meanings enshrined in the story of Christ. Of His earthly suffering and death – and of His resurrection, and the truth that sooner or later, yet inevitably, evil will retreat, and life will triumph. That is what we have wanted for all 1,152 days. We are united in this. Every day – and especially today, when Ukrainians of all Christian denominations celebrate Easter on the same date. Together. We fight for Ukraine together. And we pray for Ukraine together. May evil’s hour end. May the day of life arrive. The day of peace. The day of Ukraine. The day that lasts for centuries. And we will be able to come together again. At one table. On a peaceful Easter. May all this come true. May God help us in this. May there be peace. May there be Ukraine. Christ is Risen! He is Risen Indeed!

Christ is risen! These words capture the entire meaning of our existence, for we were not made for death but for life. #Easter vatican.va/content/france…

Wishing a blessed and peaceful Good Friday to Christians in the UK and around the world, as they commemorate the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ.

Pizza Hut back in the 1990s.

“What is a Nation really? Only it’s people.” A really lovely old film about the British people. Narrated in 1954.

Tonight, we remember and give thanks for the extraordinary life of John ‘Paddy’ Hemingway DFC, the last of ‘The Few.’
