My great friend York Normandy Veteran Ken Cooke (100) with local Army Cadets at Strensall Carnival today. Ken spoke to around 70 people and said that he had a great day.

Taking care of yourself isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity. 🌸

Rest when you need to, slow down when life feels overwhelming, and remember that you deserve the same kindness you give to others. Self-care isn’t selfish; it’s how you recharge, heal, and show up as your best self every day. 💖✨

#DDay80: the role of the British & Commonwealth Medical Services on #DDay and in the #Normandy campaign is an important part of our understanding of events that summer 80 years ago. [thread] 1/14

How many children ever noticed that ‘Mother’ and Red Riding Hood’s Granny had the exact same tea-set?

Your mind carries so much every single day, so speak to it with patience and kindness. 💚✨

Not every thought needs to be perfect, and not every day needs to feel productive. Rest, breathe, and remember that healing also counts as progress. You’re doing better than you think. 🌷🐸

What’s one gentle thing you can do for yourself today? 💕👇

A rich life is one filled with: peace, wonder, connection, belonging, adventure, meaning, and love.

The turtle theory feels so comforting because it reminds us that progress doesn’t have to be loud or rushed. 🐢🌊

You are allowed to grow slowly.
You are allowed to take peaceful steps.
And you are still moving forward, even on the days when it feels small. ✨

What’s one thing you’re learning to take slowly instead of rushing? 🌼

@MsJoanneHeywood Hope your audition went well. X

“To everyone who puts the grocery cart back, smiles at strangers, waves people ahead even when it’s their turn, practices empathy for others, actively listens with the intention to understand, is kind to animals, notices the small things, offers to help, isn’t afraid to ask people if they are okay, sends the ‘Did you make it home?’ text, feels compassion when someone else is hurting: thank you. The world needs more of you.” ~Unknown

Many congratulations! Thanks for the joy you've brought us all. Here's to many many more years. 🎉

[Talking Pictures TV @TalkingPicsTV]

Please raise your tea cups to us here at TPTV as today is our 11th Birthday! Hip, hip, hurray! We can’t believe it’s been over a decade since we embarked on the journey to share with you all the great films and series that had been stuck in the archives for decades but deserved another airing. And if it wasn’t for all of you tuning in, telling your friends and family about us, and staying in touch, we wouldn’t be here – so thank YOU!
TPTV isn’t just a TV channel – it’s a brilliant community.
With thanks
Sarah, Noel and Neill.

Many villages across the UK have repurposed iconic red telephone boxes into tiny community libraries, where you can take a book and leave one for someone else to enjoy too if you want to

We grew up watching hand drawn Disney and now it's gone. We don't talk about this enough.

Divine intervention? The sun came out just in time for @mikron first outdoor performance of Wensleydale Whey. Such a ' grate' production - loved every minute!

“Find joy in the little things.” 🌼

Happiness doesn’t always come from big achievements or perfect moments. Sometimes it’s hidden in simple things — warm sunlight, fresh flowers, a kind word, or a quiet peaceful day.

Life feels more beautiful when you slow down enough to notice the small joys around you.

The little things may seem tiny, but they often become the moments we remember the most. 💛

What’s one small thing that brought you joy today?

The great Paul Whitehouse is 68 years old today, which means I am obliged to post this (again!) - arguably the most majestically random but brilliant comedy sketch committed to celluloid for at least the last, what, forty, forty five years?

Yes, forty, forty five years.

Happy birthday Paul 🤘

Any teachers out there- particularly those who've just had an Ofsted inspection - if you're able to catch this totally relatable reset of @jgodberco 's Teechers, it's well worth seeing.
It gets a 10 out of 10 from me! 😉
