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.

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.

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

Instead of driverless cars...
....we desperately need more carless drivers in 2020s!
And more bicycle streets!

If you are thinking of voting for the Conservatives on the basis of Brexit and ‘350 million for the NHS’, please remember that this has been confirmed as utter nonsense by the UK Statistics Authority.
Please RT to help remind everyone.

This is my son Finn who has now been missing for 14 months. Finn was last seen on the 8th of July 2017 near Tintagel, North Cornwall.
It never gets any easier to do this each month, but you can help by retweeting to raise awareness of Finn. It only takes a few seconds, thank you

This is Oliver. He accidentally opened the front facing camera. Can’t get it to turn back around. 13/10 it’s the same button Oliver

This bike was my pride and joy: I bought it just after my life had fallen apart as a result of a serious and sustained trauma. It made me feel free and in control of my life for the first time. I would do anything to get it back

- I’m very unsure
- Badly, I think?
- I’m just pretending to work until home time
- I’ve no idea what I’m doing
- There’s so much to do but I’m not going to do it
- Have you seen the state of me?
- I’d rather not say
- Please go away
- No
