The view of the High Street from outside my old college was spectacular this morning.

When does ‘middle age’ end and ‘old age’ begin?

@SimonWood2k5 @susannareid100 @RobBurl Truly excellent presenter though he is, I guess this means now we will be getting his personal opinions as well. Enough of those around already!

Congratulations on the new role but this is a huge blow for the BBC and for those of us who rely on The Andrew Marr Show to set us up for the week ahead. Wishing the very best, to the best.
Andrew Marr@AndrewMarr9
Personal announcement. After 21 years, I have decided to move on from the BBC.l leave behind many happy memories and wonderful colleagues. But from the New Year I am moving to Global to write and present political and cultural shows, and to write for newspapers

@rgmcgrath It's too generalised to provide any real insight either into how things were being done or how they will be done.

I know I was asking for recommendations of places to eat, but I’m definitely not going anywhere that can’t spell.

@thinking_ally Yes! Disruptors should be welcomed and listened to, whether benign or not.

People who speak up and speak out are vital to organisations (as are those who listen to and engage with them). Some 'rules' below for the rule-breakers...

Currently, our organisations need rebels, heretics & mavericks to help light the way to change more than ever. To be inspired by an outstanding group of rebels, read the story of the NASA "pirates" group: sloanreview.mit.edu/article/how-a-… Could you be a pirate too? #100RepeatTweets no.43

@Dunvegan_Castle @Skyetime @VisitScotland @SamHeughan @grahammctavish A great choral future awaits both!

Back by popular demand, a clip of Sam Heughan and Graham McTavish’s rendition of the Skye boat song at Dunvegan last summer - such hauntingly lovely singing🎵

@annavanpraagh Never watched it, never done it, but the third is FAB!

Other things everyone else loves that I’ve never understood: Star Trek, paintballing, tinned tuna #Eurovision

@piersmorgan @BorisJohnson @Keir_Starmer But he definitely needs a positive spin, Piers. Over to you!
English
To those asking if I've also invited @BorisJohnson to do Life Stories... yes, of course, but he declined. Our fearless Prime Minister prefers to hide in fridges than be interviewed by me. So, full respect to @Keir_Starmer for having the bottle to do it.

Switching off #ThePursuitOfLove it’s making me cringe as I knew it would

@thinking_ally Goodness me, Katie. An explosion of chlorophyll!

@annavanpraagh It would be a start, but Labour's problems go much deeper than a reconstituted Shadow Cabinet. The name, for a start.
English
I know I’m trying to apply logic here to a seemingly illogical selection process but surely Keir will now invite Harriet Harman and Yvette Cooper into the shadow cabinet.

Today in festivals with great names: 3 May is traditionally the Feast of the Finding of the Holy Cross, once known in England as 'Crouchmas' (crouch = cross).

@LabourLordsUK @HayteratLords @cabinetofficeuk Have to tone it down a bit if you get the Lord Speaker job, Dianne!
English
#LordsQs @HayteratLords also refs @cabinetofficeuk Frost to seafood/meat exporters to #EU facing substantial new non-tariff barriers – red tape & border checks – and asks Minister if Govt will prioritise within Partnership Council reducing this drastic outcome of #BrexitDeal
LabourLordsUK@LabourLordsUK
#LordsQs @HayteratLords asks @cabinetofficeuk Lord Frost if given #BrexitDeal now ratified, Govt will start setting up Civil Society Forum to input into implementation & scrutiny. Minister confirms 'yes'

A beautiful Loch Dunvegan sunset last night.
We will be announcing our May reopening date shortly - watch this space. We are looking forward to giving you all our trademark warm Highland welcome.

@DrFrancisYoung @oldpigsqueal @jackjewers @tufnelljimmy As a schoolboy chorister I was conducted several times by BB. A very courteous and assuming man.

This image is incredible - an actual *photograph* of a clergyman in an ecclesiastical wig: the Suffolk-born Dr Martin Routh (1755-1854), President of @QueensCollegeOx. Like gazing back into the 18th century
