Heading to London for one of my favourite days of the year - @MandHShow #MandHAwards judging day. We’re privileged to have such amazing judges @bernarddonoghue @mimingcat @tanner_matthew @Sam462 @maggie_appleton Stephen Duncan and Caro Howell. Shortlist announcement Friday 👀

1/2 As part of the @I_W_M #ContemporaryConflictsProgramme, @AmbassadorJawad and @HanifAhmadzai visited the #ImperialWarMuseum to meet Director General Diane Lees and curator Amanda Mason. The "Making A New World" temporary exhibition displays items from #Afghanistan - a must-see!

@gill_a1 @IWMNorth Another great moment to celebrate at iwm. Well done my great teams.

@PaulBRamsbottom @Telegraph Completely agree. Makes us look like shady characters and demeans the work we do serving the public.

Helen came closest on the hotel find. The swan is the symbol for Lincoln. It's a swan towel sculpture

At Lincoln university to celebrate Gold in the REF. Well done team!

This is what I found on the bed in the Hilton in Lincoln. Any guesses???
