@Heritagelocum I was here earlier!

Very big fan of the fact a 50 ton steam train is still able to gently roll through the busy crowds on Bristol’s harbour

@clmassey68 @Suey2chaussures @Deputy_new @DeputyGrocott Yellow Elephant, remember it off an early learning centre cassette tape kindersongbook.blogspot.com/2012/08/yellow…

@Heritagelocum Go to Pecorama too!

@BlondeHistorian That’s really helpful what you did to help build their confidence. My son is 12 and has been afraid of dogs due to large dogs running up to him as a toddler. We’ve finally turned a corner recently where he has had a series of interactions with old docile dogs, getting there.

@CeliaRichards0n We loved that the NT shared the cheese scone recipe during Covid so we could get our fix

Cheese scones. Defiantly. My kids are so sick of me.

@AlastairCummins Commiserations 🐘 🐘 🐘

That joyous feeling when Cardiff arrives next door 😐😐

@Vintage_Maggie @LJRossAuthor Thanks for the tip I’ll check out the audio book version!

@Tracey_TPlanner @LJRossAuthor I think it hard going as well. Managed Wolf Hall over time but struggled with Bring up the Bodies and The Mirror and The Light. No idea if this would work for you but listening to the unabridged audio books really helped me

Overheard in the pretentious reading corner of Twitter: “Yah, yah, I hate those ‘easy reading’ novels; they add nothing to the body of literature as a whole”. This, from somebody who has never written a single book; never thought about what reading means to people other than themselves; never considered the value to be found in immersing oneself in an enjoyable story…in short, it’s the worst kind of navel-gazing, propagated by those who are terribly concerned that people should think they’re intelligent. Well, as someone very comfortable with my intellect, let me say this for the slow ones at the back: ALL READING IS GOOD. Mills and Boon, comics, Ulysses, whatever floats your boat is absolutely fine with me, because it’s bringing you happiness, and it isn't for me or anyone else to dictate that.

@LJRossAuthor I love your books because they are easy to read as well as the fantastic plot lines. Wordy books just send me to sleep.

The National Trust has been criticised for ‘lecturing’ on the climate emergency, and told to stick to its ‘true purpose.’ World-famous gardens in our care are now blooming four weeks earlier than expected. Nature can’t be silenced. theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…

@LJRossAuthor @Waterstones238 Amazing!! I’m reading Dark Skies at the moment

Thank you for the fab display, @Waterstones238 - my childhood self could never have imagined these moments, and the feeling of wonder never gets old.

@GJ_transport @PTRC_UK 🙏

In London earlier this week for the TPM Abstracts Committee meeting. Great to meet up with old friends and make new ones. Shaping up to be an excellent conference with lots of interest for everyone. 3-4 July, Manchester. Book your place at ptrc-training.co.uk/Events/Event-D… #2024TPM

@AlastairCummins That’s great you’ve found a good garage to go to

Well the BMW is fixed, and it wasn't even what the other lot said it was. Think I've found the place to look after it from now on!

@Cparks1976 Morse

OK. I need some ideas of UK films & TV that have a backdrop of the 90’s….. Please reply below. Thanks so much x

@GJ_transport @atkinsrealis Doing some #RVW at choir (the Turtle Dove)

My week at work (#London edition): Lots of project work with super @atkinsrealis colleagues across UK+world. Presenting PT+active travel proposals to one client team, and the impact of the latest TAG updates to another. Leadership tips. And Ralph Vaughan Williams' music! #RVW

@GJ_transport @atkinsrealis Great to see you in #London!

@CeliaRichards0n @RestoreTrustNT are being very sneaky!!

NB this is NOT an advertisement for the National Trust. It has nothing to do with the charity and we have not asked anyone to give their details to this company.

@AlastairCummins Oh no what’s up?

Kind of hoped my tale of woe with garages would be left in 2023, but seeing as Tipton Garage can't be bothered to tell me they don't want the work/hassle with a warranty company, the 1 series is now booked into Paddock Bmw, near Exeter 🤞🤞

After the effect of 'Mr Bates vs the Post Office', let’s hope Toby Jones is also working on new TV dramas about water pollution, climate change, covid, PPE contracts, the refugee crisis, the cost of living, energy prices, and the NHS

Thanks for this @MarshSongs #postofficescandal
