@exitthelemming @stvckwithyou @yorkshire_dales @AnnaMadeley Fabulous! And lovely to see you and @AnnaMadeley out in the Dales sunshine.❤️ Here’s our horse chestnut sapling grown from a conker:

Every National Park in Britain has been sent a sapling. The @yorkshire_dales one is in Grassington, our #ACGAS Darrowby. It’s near the Visitor Centre, with a gorgeous view (and not just of @AnnaMadeley)

A pleasure and an honour to plant one of the Sycamore Gap saplings. A small act of resistance and togetherness. An antidote to the stupidity. #ATreeOfHope

Yorkshire Dales National Park@yorkshire_dales

A sapling from the Sycamore Gap tree in Northumberland has been planted in Grassington by Sam West & Anna Madeley from All Creatures Great and Small. More 👇 yorkshiredales.org.uk/sycamore-gap-s… #YorkshireDales #NationalParks #ACGAS #AllCreaturesGreatAndSmall #SycamoreGap

Well, the garden seed feeders have been emptied for the last time and will be cleaned and stored until the autumn. We are sad to follow the advice of the @Natures_Voice @RSPBEngland but we understand and appreciate that our finches are at risk. ❤️🐦‍⬛❤️

@exitthelemming @JeauxLatham @Bly_Mechanics We were very fortunate to see the great John Rutter himself conducting his Requiem in Bradford many years ago. Some people hate his work, I find it a calming reassurance.

If you’re around Burnley tonight (and why not?), check this out. Two terrific pieces, @JeauxLatham part of the choir, tickets from @Bly_Mechanics

@exitthelemming I often sit with my eyes open and it doesn’t necessarily mean I’m awake.😂

@exitthelemming @channel5_tv @AdrianEdmondson My good lady and I both gave out a large sigh after last night’s episode - pure blissful and balming TV! And then add the Elgar! My cup overfloweth. Thank you all: @exitthelemming @AdrianEdmondson @channel5_tv ❤️⭐️❤️⭐️❤️

If you didn’t see the first in this series, do please tune in tonight if you seek a gentle, humorous and honest slice of escapism from this crazy world of ours. Pure class!❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️@exitthelemming @AdrianEdmondson

@AdrianEdmondson 😂😂 Brilliant! That could be me and my good lady: she would be avidly scouring the horizon and I would be flat on my back, watching the clouds. Fantastic programme - television for our times.❤️

Fond memories of Wells and its glorious cathedral as I’m collating packs of fundraising notecards for a church choir in the United States. The choir are crossing the Atlantic to visit the cathedral next year - such a special place for choral music! @WellsCathedral1 @CityOfWells❤️

For a while we have suspected that we had a visiting hedgehog to our garden. Arrived home this evening to find TWO hiding by our front door!❤️

@exitthelemming @AdrianEdmondson @channel5_tv Utterly watchable, gentle, feel good television - a tonic for this crazy world of aggression and conflict. Thank you ❤️😎⭐️

It’s the day at least some of you have been waiting for. SAM & ADE GO BIRDING, with me and @AdrianEdmondson, tonight, 8pm, @channel5_tv. In Ep 1 we head to West Cornwall, the stocking-toe of England, in search of the Cornish Chough. And Ade teaches me to enjoy the common stuff

@exitthelemming Unfortunately Twitter, like most social media, is broken.😞

Samuel West 💙💛@exitthelemming·11 Mar

Since Twitter search no longer really works, I'm reposting this because it took me ages to refind, and it's useful. A request for book recommendations for a keen 8-year-old (and counting) who wanted magic and a heroine produced 900+ brilliant replies. Thank you all

Samuel West 💙💛@exitthelemming

D1 wants her next book to be about a strong girl who has an adventure with an animal companion and maybe a boy, and there’s magic. Sounds like His Dark Materials, really, but D1 is eight, so those are a couple of years away. Anyone got any other suggestions for a strong reader?

@Carol4OliveFarm @Matt_Pinner Twenty for me too! We still have a working 1950s rotary telephone in the house - seeing our son-in-law’s attempt to use it was hilarious!

TWENTY for me! And I still use some of them, like listening to music on CDs. @Matt_Pinner

Renovating the dolls house that I built for our daughter 30 years ago, to be used by our grandchildren. Makes me feel very happy but very old at the same time! #recycling #childhood #dollshouse #Homemade ❤️
