@BBCSport @BBCOne @BBCiPlayer What about Jasmine Paris? Unbelievable sporting achievement to be the first woman to complete the Barklay Marathons & someone who has already achieved so much in trail & ultra running. It is a more niche sport, but it's an incredible & impelling tale. And she's normal & relatable

Woke up with Burning House by @LotteryWinners as my earworm. We're having a barbecue later, hope it's not a premonition. Cracking song.

While Sunak and Co respond to the post office TV programme outrage, they continue to stall on the contaminated blood scandal, because it will cost even more and they want to leave the bill for Labour, assuming a change of government. https://t.co/kAe64CDQeA

@chris_hawkins Hubby @David_Powles lost a shoe while dancing to The Man Don't Give A F*** by Super Furries & then danced with it on his hand. Everyone else did the same and so the "shoe dance" to that particular song was born and happened in Preston regularly. We did this on our wedding day.

What a performance by @lauren__hemp and the Lionesses 👏👌 now to get excited for the final 🤞

This is the moment Rodney Freeburn - at 85 years old - completed his 500th @parkrun!

A truly inspiring bloke and only the tenth person in the WORLD to reach the milestone at 85 years old or over.

What a legend. 😍

Imagine…

Just imagine …

Watching the last song from Pulp at Latitude on Friday night and, moments later, at the In The Woods stage, a full on Common People show starts up for 4 hours.

@EveAinsworth Coughing constantly since early November. Really fed up of it now.

[Kimberley Powles @JournoKim]

@Pandamoanimum We normally have a "Birmingham Breakfast". My Dad swears it's a thing, but we think he just made it up. Buttered brown bread, pork pie and whisky. It's totally weird but kinda works.

@stevehuntphoto Knew I'd found one of my best friends in the village when we were watching our sons' induction to Beavers and she was p*ssing herself with laughter because her son had been given an 'I love beavers' blanket badge.
