Possible locations of loss include between #Woodhenge and #Stonehenge (@EH_Stonehenge), The Bell, #Amesbury (@UKjdspoons), or The Carriage in #Tickenham, but he could be anywhere as we've travelled a lot this past week.

LOST DOG: Answers to Traveller
My parents have lost their travel mascot! This little guy was a gift from a neighbour's daughter and they feel awful that they won't be able to show her any of his adventures.

BREAKING: "You dropped something, Jeremy!" We gatecrashed @Jeremy_Hunt's litter pick photo op and handed him the report Cabinet has refused to honour. By not banning waste exports, he is committed to polluting the world with our trash. Awks!😬 @GreenpeaceUK @ChangingMarkets

Following today’s announcement, this could be the last photo of a politician pointing at a pothole.

In the past I foolishly assumed that there would of course be a plan in place for tree maintenance after tree planting events, but the truth is mind-boggling.

Yes! This needs shouting louder. Planting trees is pretty useless unless there’s a plan to nurture their growth. Dead saplings don’t restore tree cover, biodiversity or carbon sequestration. theguardian.com/environment/20…

I'm a little late in sharing this, but @StuartHumphryes's new book is truly mesmerising. I spent a lovely Saturday afternoon time travelling courtesy of his amazing autochrome enhancements. Well worth following.

@OffTheGroundOrg Thank you so much. I only hope I do it justice.

Warning: ranty🧵ahead.
It’s only been a few days, but I am already getting tired of those who say that #SycamoreGap is getting all the attention while nobody does anything or cares about the state of the environment.
They are clearly looking at the wrong Twitter feeds. (1/7)

It looks like I can add @michaelastracha and others to my #SycamoreGap thread as one of the many people who are trying to bring attention to this problem in the best way they know.

Having walked Hadrian’s Wall just last summer, #SycamoreGap was a powerful symbol and I feel its loss. But when all is said and done, I and the thousands of people like me who mourn this tree will go back to doing what we do every day ... (6/7)
