Kathleen Collins gave a wonderful performance tonight as Shirley Valentine at Liverpool Everyman. What a fantastic understudy!

Great Sunday lunch today at Formby Golf Club. The food was delicious and the views of the course were as always superb. 👏👏

Sorry, but I can’t believe Sky Sports opening credits for The Masters. 🤷🏼‍♀️Totally unnecessary schmalz. It is a brilliant sporting event which is always outstanding. Such sentimental treatment demeans it.

Such a pretty combination of catmint, geums and polemonium courtesy of Bluebell Cottage Gardens. 👏👏👏

Not quite the same finish on the green in Woolton as West Lancs GC Greens sadly. I’ll keep trying.

Good luck to everyone Royal Portrush Golf Club for The Open Best wishes to the five Final Open Qualifiers from West Lancs GC Greens A special shout out to Naoimh Quigg, former student member here West Lancs Golf Club now Ladies Captain Royal Portrush Golf Club Enjoy your special week. See you on telly N. 🍀

Just cut the grass, now for Adam Frost and this week’s @BBC2 Gardeners World.

Remembering Gill on what would have been her 82nd birthday. We had our usual afternoon tea in the garden but this year there was a spare cup 😢

Good luck to ladies representing their clubs today in the Frances Smith Trophy West Lancs Golf Club Enjoy your day of true links golf and play well everyone.

The garden is coping better with warm weather than I, and I’m not too worried about the lawn which will recover with rain, but I am now anxious that some plants will be lost. It is the driest period I can remember in 44 years here. 😱

‘Acquired’ ⁦at last Goodison Park Premier League match, Everton , our snippet of sacred turf has outgrown its little blue pot and is thriving in Woolton. 😂 COYB 💙

Little greenhouse gleaming in afternoon sun. No sign of forecast thunderstorms here ⛈️

President Trump’s attendance at US Tennis Open forces thousands of fans to be delayed taking the seats they have paid dearly for. Stadium barely half full even after a delayed start. What a way for a leader to treat those he claims to represent. 👎🏻

Good luck to the teams in today’s finals of the Millennium Links Cup 𝐇𝐞𝐬𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐡 𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐟 𝐂𝐥𝐮𝐛 Special shout-out to the West Lancs Golf Club who are playing Formby Ladies Golf Club in the semi-finals. COWL.

Many thanks @ HeskethGolfClub for great welcome and delicious food at tonight’s Millennium Links Cup dinner. Congratulations to winning team Formby Ladies Golf Club and commiserations to home club Hesketh, losing finalists. Well done everyone. 👏👏👏

Now redundant as a sunhat, but a new life as a table decoration!

Stunning Sleeping Beauty by English National Ballet today Liverpool Empire. Wonderfully pure classic ballet. Amazing dancers and orchestra 👏👏👏

Encouraging signs of a re-opening of Liverpool’s oldest surviving single screen cinema. Fund raising is going well but still some way to go to reach the £700,000 needed to avoid losing this loved icon of local history.

Wonderful live streamed ballet! What better way to spend a wet November Monday? Fantastic performances, joyous and uplifting. Well done Royal Ballet and Opera 👏👏👏
