"Everything has stopped. I can't go to the academy. I can't learn English. All my dreams are ruined. There's nothing left." ย  Afghan student Tarah's story touched my heart. Her dreams, along with those of millions of other girls, need to be protected. We won't give up.

The stirring interview with Tarah was conducted by Nuala McGovern who allowed us to use this bit to open our #UNGA event on keeping Afghanistan girlsโ€™ education alive.

โ€œMr Notts Countyโ€. Such dedication and professionalism for the love of the club, the city and football. Wonderfully decent man who always made time to talk. Thoughts are with his loved ones. A fitting tribute from BBC Nottingham Sport. If you live your passion, this will touch you.

Wonderful memories of Colin Slater on BBC Nottingham Sport with Alex Noble ahead of Notts County FC kick-off. He would probably be a little embarrassed by all the tributes. But everyone doing him rightly proud.

Many congratulations Clare. Great gig. The audience and team on #bbcnewsday on BBC World Service will miss your energy, sense of fun, creativity and obviously your laser editorial focus and ideas. Have fun on BBC Radio 5 Live

Yep, quite a ride. You've taken BBCOS to more than 30 countries; some of them more than once. So many memorable connections and conversations during the 6 years. The audience will miss you on BBC World Service but the good news is they can watch you on BBC TV instead.

Spent memorable time in Sarajevo and Islamabad with Duลกan. He was a warm, witty, wonderful host and guide. Great company. And someone who understood the media and pushed to help the BBC keep ahead; a supporter of #bbcminute. Condolences to his loved ones.

Thanks to everyone who helped ensure the London to Brighton ride was very smooth ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘. Team Anna was riding in memory of my sister-in-law who we lost too early a year ago - raising money for British Heart Foundation
