@NBSuiBian @AlfieBarlow17 Just like boaters, friendly…!!! We shall be taking our campervan there this year for the first time so would be great to meet up with everyone
English

@AlfieBarlow17 Great facilities, loos either end of field, showers by the entrance, water taps either end, volunteers at entrance during day. If we decide to go you must pop over for a brew! Campers are friendly. You’ll make new friends. Nice cafe at entrance to show.

Question for over 70 year olds: can you remember your home phone number from when you were a kid?
Prof. Frank McDonough@FXMC1957
3 March 1847. Alexander Graham Bell was born in Edinburgh, Scotland. He's credited with creating the first practical commercial telephone system, though he did not, as is often assumed, invent the telephone.

And now I’m here in John Lewis. Am I the only person who wants to buy a nice bowl or a lovely plate that’s made in Britain and not in China? Sophie Conran, PortMeirion is beautiful and sounds British but made in China. Rick Stein Treyarnon Bay, Cornwall. Sounds Cornish but made in China. Almost everything I have picked up here is made in China. I’ll happily pay more for British made, in what I thought was a British shop, but it seems to be impossible.

@wattsconnect Not feeling the best. A friend of mine who I grew up with has sadly passed away yesterday.

After a summer of becoming more ‘solar savvy’, we’re now practicing being very frugal with our coal and have just finished our 2nd bag of coal for the season

@WoodyBrewer2011 @dunworkin4good @FoxesAfloat @compoost Fabulous and it brought back so many memories of a year ago. I am in suspense on who Alan murders.

@dunworkin4good @FoxesAfloat @compoost @wattsconnect Oh my goodness, I really don't know how he's going to last as a traitor, he's so funny...but I guess they'll think he's just being himself, so not suspect him 😂

Loved it...
Took my breath away, a tear was shed, when they drove up the drive as we did last year...

@London_W4 Absolutely right, we always search out the independent coffee shops
English

This is an independent coffee shop this morning in Camden Passage, Islington. A perfect location, beautifully done inside, friendly service from the actual owner and yet there’s only me and one other person here. The big chains like Starbucks etc are rammed with people. So next time you moan there are only awful chain coffee shops everywhere, giving terrible service from staff who don’t care and no independents, look at yourself and where you spend your money.

@wattsconnect That's a great spot up there! A preen in the sunshine and the perfect place to keep an eye out for tonight's dinner 🐟
