James Cook talking on BBC news being negative about the royal family and the popularity of the queen in Scotland does not speak for me as a Scot. BBC Breaking News

Pauline Churcher 1934-2023 “I got a lovely thank you letter when I retired from umpiring- it thanked Mr P. Churcher. I contacted them, they sent another with my correct name on. I framed the first!” “Perfect Pauline!” I laughed. #britishrowing #HWR #TRC

Hi LTA Please change your Medical Declaration form on your website for Walking Tennis as it has Cardio Tennis at the top- not helpful to my walking tennis groups! LTA Looking at your inclusion course 😉 perhaps you could change the font to a sans Serif typeface too! Thanks

Just finished watching rugby. Scotland vs France. I feel the ball was grounded. A hollow victory for France.

Sir Ian Mckellen

What was I thinking? Amended my old garden pond. Very proud of myself. Thought I’d like decking. Got quote result -cost of reasonable car. Can’t do woodwork. Need to rethink. I was so excited. Current mood? moderately flipping grumpy.

Watching boat race as usual. Just finished playing men’s race back. I just finished counting Matthew’s calls. I may be wrong- 2 calls Oxford specific, 8 calls Cambridge specific, & over 10 for both with an uncooperative white flag. Darkened room & stiff drink? Matthew Pinsent

Bake off -Stand up to Cancer. Fern Brady- lady you were robbed! I felt you deserved the apron- wrestle it out of Dermot’s custard crème splattered hands. Sorry big D. Fern Brady British Bake Off Dermot O'Leary

Love this well done TD!

Love this too. Everyone be like Ali!

All teachers. Well done for surviving (especially those with Ofstead in) Teaching has many rewards but more challenges. Today - focus on your best day & be proud of the difference you made. Most parents will never know the work you did to change a persons life path. #teaching

Been injured for some time - (both knees). Have just been on an Ergo for the first time in millions of years. Wasn’t pretty but stayed on. Prefer oars & a boat but I did it - gave myself a tiny pat on my own back after finishing. So chuffed. Yay!

Just seen an advert for the BBC patting themselves on the back for reporting on “the truth”. I used to believe the BBC were impartial but I have not felt this in a long time.
