Today I was immensely proud to lead a Remembrance Sunday service in front of 500+ people - a real privilege. But let's also remember that fascism was defeated so that people could be free not to wear a symbol or sing a song without being criticised.

Autumn is enjoying some proper lighting today North Cave Wetlands, and looking all the better for it. Elsewhere: peregrine

Lovely end to the day North Cave Wetlands, only improved by good views of a bittern from turret hide 🙂

Not a big one for lists, but some days North Cave Wetlands are worth recording! Great white egret, sparrowhawk, Bewick swans, pink-footed geese, curlew, kingfisher, peregrine, marsh harrier, peregrine versus marsh harrier, little owl, bittern.😀😀😀

We forget the reason why settlements on the edge of the Wolds like Pocklington have 10,000 years of occupation. When ice sheets melted following the Ice Age, the sea levels rose. York was under water as part of lake Humber and Pocklington & Market Weighton were on the lake edge.

Here’s a free fact for Hull folk. The phrase ‘elbow grease’ was invented by local lad Andrew Marvell.

Excellent to see the work of Hull York Medical School through UKWPMED recognised in this report 👏👏👏hyms.ac.uk/medicine/apply… Whilst there is still much to do, good to see real change over the last decade in response to inequities in access to medical education.
