@Ronnie_p88 Hi Ronnie. They’ve been cancelling for September? I hadn’t seen that. Yes, still planning on going ahead - obviously following govt guidance etc. We’ve split the event over three days to allow for extra physical distancing and to reduce congestion around the Event Village

@james_stewart13 @jimmann23 😂

@MONTANEuk @SwedishLapland It’s a cracking part of the world. We’ve been trekking just across the border in Finland for the past 6 seasons.

The Montane Lapland Arctic Ultra may have been postponed until 2022, but, our spirits are being kept high by organizer Robert Polhammer who has shared these amazing images with us from his recent time in Sweden. [Pics: @SwedishLapland / laplandarcticultra] #LaplandArcticUltra

@GarryMac @Tumshie71 Like every SVQ statement ever written!

@BalalQureshi @UKRunChat @harveygallagher Northern Finland, Yukon in Canada, Minnesota. Not glamorous or exotic but awesome nonetheless

Question 3: I’ve always wanted to do a run or race abroad but things keep getting in the way. What is the most exotic place you’ve run? And has anyone done any running/training holidays or retreats? @ukrunchat @harveygallagher #ukrunchat

@santababy100 @ianbeattie1 Sorry to hear this Sandra. Recover quickly Ian.

For those who know @ianbeattie1 after few wks of not being well & deteriorating this wk, he ended up in hospital yesterday. So far tests have revealed blood clots on his lungs.Been worrying time so I’m relieved he is now getting answers & being looked after.

@BrucesterBoy Congratulations on your retirement Calum.

The day has come for this old Firey to Stand Down. It's been an amazing journey with amazing people 🔥🚒❤ Raising a glass to friends and colleagues past, present and no longer with us🥃 Big Love. Brucester 💙

@irinacatewilkie @LandelsMark Legend! Hope you’re well Mark.

Welcome to the Tweeter @LandelsMark 🥳

A French police helicopter traveled 7,000 feet up a windy mountainside, getting inches from the snowy slope, in an effort to rescue an injured skier. Unbelievable flying and skill by the pilot. 👏🚁

@KevinKetchen @GarryMac @farries_david @AboyneFire @fire_scot He was doing that at Gullane as a trainee.

@GarryMac @farries_david @AboyneFire @fire_scot I remember you going on about this often when chauffeuring you about in a pump..to this day I hear it and vividly remember you rising on every occasion..😂

Massive kudos to colleagues from @AboyneFire who pioneered a fantastic web based resource for Retained and Volunteer Firefighters across @fire_scot. It’s really important to us that we capture great ideas from our teams and we intend building on this solid foundation. Well done👍🏻

@simongreenhalg1 Hi Simon tried to email last night but got a bounce back from your email account for some reason (not sure if there’s a typo in the one supplied on the form). Can you DM us please.

@breaking_strain I’ve sent you an email ref your returns policy for on line shopping but no reply. I’ve rung the mobile but won’t connect???

Places are filling up fast on the Arctic Wish Trek 2022 @breaking_strain Be part of the magic with us! For more info contact Jude today judith.king@whenyouwish.org.uk You do not want to miss out! 🥶

@pammiemck We had a sparrowhawk in the garden last week (no other birds funnily enough). Also had a woodpecker on the feeder a while back. But generally, blue tits, robin & blackbirds all compete with the squirrels- had 5 one day.

Great article on choosing a 4 season tent by @alpnick @Alpkit. I’m not allowed near a staff tent or laavu on our Arctic treks due to my chainsaw snoring so I need to hide in a hole in the woods.

@PeterHeath8 Well done guys.

Nightingale hospital Sunderland open tomorrow as one of the mass vac sites. TWFRS staff will be there playing our part in ensuring people get progressed quickly & safely and supporting our NHS & Health partners. Proud of them all. Different uniforms, one aim, save lives.👍👏🏼👏🏼
