A message for the world and all its occupants…

@5liveSport On the road from Durham (in services on way to SAFC v Sheff Wed) listening to @cambo_19 casting Aussie pearls before English public. Great stuff! #RichieWouldBeProud

Get outta the way

#AskDanny MB a forlorn figure. Looks well out of his depth and dare I say, it looks like the players think this too.

Blown away by DULOG tremendous production of #AnythingGoes @GalaDurham last night. Don’t tell me these actors/singers/dancers/musicians/production team have enough time to study for a degree before, during and after such a mind-boggling performance…

@DULOGTheatre Excellent so far. Staggering virtuosity of the singing and dancing. Minutes ago treated to a barbershop quartet during the interval! Novel and outstanding!

Coming to the wicket with the side 14-3, captain Jamie Atkinson smashes 195 on return for KCC Premier. 14 fours, 14 sixes, a strike rate of 141. KCC Premier defeats DLSW DLIT by 164 runs to earn the right to a @CricketHK PL50 home final this Sunday against HKCC Premier.

@corrie_corfield Wishing you good health and happiness in 2024. Still miss your lovely voice #VoxPulcherrima

@KylePorterCBS Sweet

This is incredible.

@parkstone9 @BBCr4today @bbcnickrobinson Unfortunately it needed to be said. Once you’ve met fire with fire, then consensus can begin.

@BBCr4today @bbcnickrobinson How is that question meant to illuminate or clarify anything? It’s just grandstanding. Bullying as well. It was badly done and the fact you think it’s great, shows why your programme is losing listeners.

"Isn't the truth, you're a headline grabber who does it by spreading poison, even in your own party?" @BBCNickRobinson asks Suella Braverman, who says: "Sometimes honesty is uncomfortable." #R4Today

@marykfoy @UN @Pontifex Thank you Mary and well done. At a time when politicians seem to be a self-serving bunch who cynically declare they are proud “to serve,” I can say that I’m proud to call you my MP.

I've voted for a ceasefire, which is backed by the @UN & its agencies, over 700 NGOs, @Pontifex & the majority of the British public - including 100s of my constituents in the City of Durham. I'll now return to the NE, my dad is very unwell. Please excuse me if I seem quieter.

#BillyConnolly is a God-given gift to humanity. Antidote to disaster, distress and depression. Thank you @BBCr4today #MadeMyDay

@iamzoebirkett Bravissima! Absolutely smashed it. Not only sensational vocals but brilliant acting, energy and perfect comic timing. You had the lot. #MyFavouriteRachel #TheBodyGuard

@JeffAB61 @DurhamCricket Hi Jeff Love your post. Remember all too well when you were a young hack with a local rag covering Durham CCC as a minor county. Happy days and thanks for your love and support for the oldies.

Cracking few hours in the company of ⁦@DurhamCricket⁩ players from minor counties to 1st class days. Top blokes, all ☺️

@BBCSteveR @BBCNews @BBCRadio3 @BBCr4today Just sat mesmerised listening to this on Today. Thank you so much for bringing some sort of understanding to an incomprehensible situation. Your work and music are beautiful, constantly reassuring and invaluable to the honourable intentions of the #BBC.

There are different ways to report a story. With words. With pictures. Sometimes I use music. Since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, I’ve been writing a piece for the piano about what’s happening here. @BBCNews @BBCRadio3 @BBCr4today

@sarahbeeny Dear Sarah For every second you are on camera, your inner and outer beauty is dazzling. It really shows the very best of humanity and in these cynical times it is truly inspirational. #LongLiveTheNHS

Thanks for watching - The research was done by a tiny team of me and my producer/director Jonney and producer Angie, for a documentary where we wanted share the fact that treatments are improving all the time. My treatment was all done by the amazing NHS we are so lucky to have.

@bbcnewcastle crazy situation here at Stadium of Light. Queue will soon go round the whole stadium. #Madness #Wherestheburgervan

#SpeakAsYouFind Bunch of us cricketers met @GaryLineker in a Brummy hotel straight after winning his Golden Boot at 1986 in Mexico. Shared his champers with us. Don’t care about his politics. #TopMan

I am no flag-waver but #WhitneyHouston is a very good choice for this. She’s the Usain Bolt of power singing. m.youtube.com/watch?v=dtdhxq…

@corrie_corfield Haha! Blushes all round then. But what’s life without the (very!) odd moment of madness! Bonnes vacances!

It’s about that time of year. Still miss that lovely voice. Ah well…Happy New Year @corrie_corfield
