@WrexhamLowdown And the save of the night - absolutely stunning

OTD 1990 Wrexham 0-5 Everton League Cup 2R Att. 9,072 35 years ago tonight, an under pressure Colin Harvey brought his Everton side to The Racecourse. The video is a great Granada Reports special by Rob McCaffrey with interviews and the goals, including a Tony Cottee hattrick.

There is still time to fill out our latest survey on micro-cars in the countryside! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

New paper with @AdamPeacockGeog on the perceived de-privileging of the in-between spaces of city-regionalism in the UK and local responses. This includes the intricate 'crafting' of scales of working to secure investment and how these change over time: #d1e1309" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

@tande64 @igairport Stick to Barcelona. Nice and simple with easy transfers!

The worst newly designed airport has to be @igairport. Huge distances for transferring, extremely long taxiing times, lack of available fingers, lost luggage and some of the most overpriced shops and restaurants you can find. I actively try to avoid it if at all possible.

@Toby_etc_ @RobRyanRed @fearlessidzine @RMcElhenney @billyashcroft9 @therealMickeyT @Eric_Allyn @DeclanSwans @TomiCaws @tonyjonescomm @rogers01_tony It would mean having the all red special adidas shirt. Enough reason in itself!

How much do we want this ? Some of us are getting old... Id walk 300 miles to be there.. Cmon The Town! Pls Retweet for yes ❤ 🙏🏻 @RobRyanRed @fearlessidzine @RMcElhenney @billyashcroft9 @therealMickeyT @Eric_Allyn @DeclanSwans @TomiCaws @tonyjonescomm @rogers01_tony

@Toby_etc_ @adidasoriginals Best shirt. Would be good to have Adidas again

We all have different tastes and styles... But some brands seem to create a deeper connection than others. Whats the gold behind that connection ? 🏅🏆 50 yrs and we are still talking about the Anderlecht '76 This is 80/81 👇🏻 @adidasoriginals 🙌🏻

@MTJProf Hope all ok Mark. Good to hear from you again.

After 18 weeks & 58 NHS appointments, I have - finally - been given the all clear following surgery to remove a lump on my back. Thanks to my family for playing nurse to me over that time and to the NHS staff at QEH, all of whom have been amazing. Onwards

@petergknight Hope it goes well Peter!

The university used to provide a bit of lunch for staff helping on Open Days, but not any more. Luckily Debbie packed me a sandwich. But I’m Billy No-mates for lunch on my last Keele University Open Day.

@JamieArathoon @YSJGeography Great news Jamie! Huge congratulations!!

@petergknight Postcard English countryside at its finest

Good morning from Marbury. Summer in the village.

@petergknight @tgauge That looks superb!

My T-Gauge model railway starter set arrived and oh my goodness it’s TINY! It’s brilliant. If you wondered what 1:450 scale looks like, here is an Intercity125 going through my reading glasses with an n-gauge loco and a AA Battery for scale. #modelrailway #tgauge ⁦@tgauge⁩

Tuesday evening run from Bala up the Hirnant Valley towards Lake Vyrnwy (about 9.5 miles from Bala Lake to Lake Vyrnwy). Different countryside; poorer housing and Airbnb refurb alongside each other highlighting individualised nature of rural deprivation

@NICRErural @DrDBeel Thanks so much for supporting this research!

@PembertonSimon @DrDBeel Great to work with you both on this and explore how these initiatives could be re-designed to secure greater rural reach.

Out today - culmination of over 12 months research with @DrDBeel focused on potential of Enterprise Zones and Investment Zones to meet the needs of rural areas - report via link below:

Recommendations to modify initiatives such as Enterprise Zones & Investment Zones to better unlock the economic potential of #rural businesses have emerged from research we commissioned. ▶️bit.ly/3YGwPHi @PembertonSimon @KeeleGGE @KeeleUniversity @DrDBeel @ManMetUni

Another run from Bala this evening. This time from Bala Lake over the top to Tryweryn via Llidiardau. This is remote rural territory but interesting to see two rural primary schools still open

@Halfa1965 Looks great; really enjoyed the daily updates Keith. Something I’ve wanted to do but never been brave enough to do it!

Day 9 #KeithWalk24 On way home after 8 excellent days N England, venturing from Sheffield or Leeds daily for rural & urban walks, most places not been before. Superb nature, heritage, people, trains(!), beer, air! Sadly still all underpinned by my anxiety: maybe that’s my fate…

@DanielRadJ I’ll try but also booked in to take Owen to a football match! Catch up soon hopefully if not?

@DanielRadJ Hi Daniel. Just finished a piece of work for Staffordshire on this very subject! Looks great!! Good luck later.

@wallersaur Hi Rich. Yes! 10 miles last night. Nice circular route out of Bala and back.

Spending quite a bit of time around Bala in North Wales so taking the opportunity to explore rural Wales at its finest. Tonight: the bridge over the River Dee at Llandderfel, 4 miles from Bala.
