Do you know someone who was on holiday in Sanday at the end of May, who has now gone home to Ealing in west London? They might - without realising it - have taken a bird tracker with them, which fell off an oystercatcher. And it's been tracking their every move. (1/2)

The boss of @GWRHelp is Mark Hopwood. I'm sure he'd be delighted to accept this challenge: "Dear Mark, please post a video of yourself getting a standard bicycle on and off the hooks you provide, on a crowded train, without injuring anyone."
RT if you'd also like to see it.
My Dad is quite frail now and undergoing a lot of treatment for blood cancer. So thank you to the awesome @pedalmeapp for this ride to the station today, it did make him smile! Driver Daniel was fantastic 👍

Nearly 60% of car journeys are under 5 miles. There's a better tool for the job. For short journeys #BikeIsBest

My friend who's not on twitter found James Stephen's grave - the leading abolitionist lawyer who drafted the Slave Trade Act 1807
The grave was covered in moss & the inscription hardly visible, so he went back today, scrubbed it down and painted in the lettering 💪🏽

As we see an increase in those on the road and heading out in their cars, remember the simple action of switching off your engine when parked or stationary can help protect your respiratory health

It couldn't really be simpler. You can meet up with girls who are boys, who like boys to be girls, who do boys like they're girls, who do girls like they're boys, always should be someone you really love. And always stay two metres apart.
You've got to say it in "the voice" Lewis @cyclisethecity 😂
Next week the government notice will change to "Go wherever you want, but if you see a lump of virus unattended, alert a member of staff. See it, say it, sorted."
YES.....or no...... All of this. PLUS support yourself, but not too much, don't spend all your time at work, but make sure you work hard....

If everyone who has ever been grateful for the NHS followed and retweeted we would reach a million by midnight
It takes just one click and your support would mean a lot
