Bit of a long shot, but I’m trying to find Rachel E Watkins and her husband Philip G Watkins, who possibly live in the Salisbury/Wiltshire area and may also have stayed at Y Seren in Carmarthen, and were in Cornwall this weekend just gone.

They've left something valuable in my car and I really want to get it safely back to them.

If you know them, please ask them to contact me. Please share, especially Wiltshire and Carmarthenshire.

@Kathrynstyan @AgriiUK Well done Kat. Fantastic performance.

@AasmahMir @TimesRadio You will be missed. All the best for the future. I will continue to listen as I also admire @StigAbell ;-)

@CBRNEsteve Yes, it was, and reasonably well but slowly, thank you.

@DanKaszeta As with much in life, just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.

Domestic smoke alarms, ceiling-mounted, fiddly to open to replace the battery in the middle of the night are the most age- and disability-unfriendly devices. There must be better solutions?

[Helen Rice @HelRice]

@CBRNEsteve Ministry of Justice have one, I am informed by him indoors.

[Helen Rice @HelRice]

@BeedRJ96 @UKHSA They will probably make it available for £lots for those who can afford it.

@ElstonMimi @RMCunliffe Me too. I have become a little better at tidying up, and my husband is slightly less intolerant of a bit of clutter and disorder.

@blumscientific Ha! Ha! I remember bringing back some sort of energy drink type thing called “semtex” in the early 2000s. And trying to stop my colleagues talking loudly about it in the airport.

@bwiedwards I didn’t even know that plaque existed. I visited the arboretum last year. I would definitely have gone to see it, had I known.

@StigAbell @VirginRadioUK Happy birthday. Listen to you on the radio regularly; I didn’t imagine you as being that tall.

@Kathrynstyan We are about to attempt to change to Octopus, now that our panels and EV charger are fully operational. A feed in tariff would be nice but that’s not the primary concern for us.
