Family lawyer @ashtonslegal, rower and sculler in ely and cambridge and umpire pretty much anywhere. Aspiring to greatness. Getting on with it

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@GBRChris_A @fatsculler I’d hope people would express discontent in a practical way first!

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@MrsClareE @scullinggirl I’m with you on that one 🤢

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@scullinggirl @MrsClareE Nice! I’ve just finished an erg, so I reckon I earned one!

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@MrsClareE @scullinggirl Ha ha! I’ve driven my whole team to drink this week!

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@scullinggirl I was going to say that! PTSD from orchestra camp as a child

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@andrewb57 Sadly not

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@andrewb57 @scullinggirl @GBRChris_A Apologies for that. As you will recall, one half of that conversation took place in my head. I subsequently raised that question with someone else, and the results were equally dubious

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@andrewb57 @GBRChris_A Please do not remind me of this conversation when I am doing sensible things like trying to have a wee

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@andrewb57 @CL_Meadows Funnily enough, the main reason for my current attempt to move house is to have more space for books…

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@RowingFamily1 @JLee_Row Ha ha! That is extremely optimistic! I should point out there are slightly different rules for BR races, but there are some athletes who seem genuinely surprised when an umpire pops up and asks them to do something!

[James Lee @JLee_Row]

A busy day for the umpires today. An essential part of our sport. And we need more!

Fancy giving it a go? Find out more 👇

@RowingFamily1 My bone of contention was the commentators saying that the umpires were nervous - we don’t get nervous so much as disappointed 😊

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@DanniiAshtonsL @AshtonsLegal Oh my gosh, I really want one of those ones! They are too cute!

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@lawclinicsarah @AshtonsFamily @AngliaLawSchool @ARULawClinic Always a pleasure

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

@andrewb57 In fairness, a lot of people in the homeland do pronounce it that way!

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

Note to other presenters today; please do not use Disney to illustrate an already inspirational story. It is the only thing guaranteed to make me cry #copconf24

[Adrian Mundell @adrianmundell1]

The inspirational Mags and Zak speaking to us about “Zak’s path to awesome” and the story of what they have been through as a family

[Joanna Cotgrove @Catsgrave]

Really looking forward to the conference this year. It’s always useful to get together with other professionals involved in the lives of some of our clients to make family law issues that arise run more smoothly @AshtonsLegal @AshtonsFamily

[Ashtons Legal LLP @AshtonsLegal]

Good morning from Coventry! We’re excited to welcome delegates to our Brain Injury Case Management Conference today. Our exhibitors are ready to see you all 👋🏻 #AshtonsConf24

[Count von Count @CountVonCount]

Four thousand two hundred fifty nine! Ah ah ah!

My constant inspiration on outings

[A.A.Milne @A_AMilne]

“All boats have to have a name,” he said, “so I shall call mine The Floating Bear.” With these words he dropped his boat into the water and jumped in after it. For a little while Pooh and The Floating Bear were uncertain as to which of them was meant to be on the top. ~A.A.Milne
