A trip to Lerryn, the mystical heart of Cornwall

The river that inspired Daphne du Maurier and Kenneth Grahame forms the perfect backdrop for an autumnal adventure.

Great to see so many people from across the generations in support of the secondary school protests and against the police brutality

300 Trégorrois se sont rassemblés ce soir devant le commissariat de Lannion pour dénoncer la répression inédite du mouvement lycéen, qui s'observe y compris localement.

The thing with the Green Party conference vote for me is that this is the kind of bullshit I was afraid of happening when Zack stood for leadership. He desperately wants to be on a winning team. Why do you think he left the LibDems? He's a populist rabble rouser and now has to face the consequences.

‘Innovate or die’: Migration Gravel Race organisers believe team classifications can make gravel worth following
The four-day stage race ditches individual racing to become the world's most brutal and beautiful team time trial. Its co-founder thinks it's the future of gravel racing.

The #CrossBorderRail has now taken me to 449 border lines, meaning I have only 77 to go (and including only 1 proper active line)

So what should I do from here? 🤔

77 borders to go, but then what?
I have just been totalling up the statistics from this autumn's #CrossBorderRail journeys, and the total number of border railway lines I have visited now stands at 449, and there are 77 more to go - this map shows the remaining ones: As well as the record breaking trip this

When I first discovered, in 2021, that Man City had signed a deal with a crypto fraud, what surprised me - other than that they'd been so gullible and unprofessional - was how quickly they washed their hands of the deal. It was a matter of just a few days.

Ex-Man City crypto partner linked to alleged £1.1bn+ fraud
3Key, the ghostship crypto company that City partnered with late last year, turns out to be run by a group of German promoters who are accused of being part of a massive pyramid scheme.

A brilliant day at the #DWord Conference with BCOMS.

Lots to take away around diversity beyond recruitment: progression, retention, belonging and who gets the big opportunities.
