@jamesradams Flip a coin the morning of the event - heads for kms, tails for miles 🪙

A really interesting (and quite uncomfortable) conversation on the false promise of Carbon Offsetting

A fantastic project to have been a part of - really looking forward to seeing @BatterseaPwrStn open its doors next month.

The 'Everest of #realestate', @BatterseaPwrStn nears closer to opening to the #public.

In an article with @BuildingNews, Franck Robert, Partner at #BuroHappold and the project lead for the Battersea #Development, helps to tell the remarkable story behind this #project.

@Hermesparcels How do I speak to a human being? Having an issue with a package [incident: 210807-010685] which is not being responded to…

We’ve been blown away by the #TwoPointSixChallenge & we’re so grateful to you all for your creativity, enthusiasm and support during this difficult time. Read just a few of the stories we’ve seen of how the #cysticfibrosis community are getting involved: https://t.co/emWDqgU7zz

Truly terrifying...

Titanoboa was the largest snake ever, measuring up to 13 metres long! They hunted large animals such as crocodilians.

In the catch 22 situation of not being able to break into elite sport due to lack of experience working in elite sport. Looking for opportunities in the London area to shadow/observe/work with physios in sport. Shares/RTs would be a huge help

Congratulations to @MatthewDuckett1 on winning the 2019 #pieceofstring race. His prize? We made his house the finish line. 8 finishers in total. More details to follow. Perhaps.

Chitukuko primary school was built by our young trainees from the local community. The new school means that children like Mathew no longer have to walk up to four miles to attend class

@Zedrocka @ChiluLemba @simunza @Gladwell Great find Chibz - he’s great! Check out his podcast Revisionist History if you haven’t already!

[BuildItInternational @Build_It_Int]

👷‍♀️🛠️👷‍♂️ Exciting that work has started on building the new multi-functional hall at our training centre. More learning space means we can train more young people in construction skills

@RunThroughUK is there on the day signup to your Victoria park 21km tomorrow? Can see you’re sold out online!

[Matthew Duckett @MatthewDuckett1]

@HillingdonAC1 any updates on Finchley 20? When can we expect to hear whether it’s called off or not?

[Toodio @ProjectToodio]

£1284/m2 construction cost is very promising! A chance for real #affordable housing in the right hands https://t.co/g0ClWadaOP

[Dirk Rinze Visser @DirkRinze]

My next #column in @CementNL will be fully dedicated to the construction industry in #Zambia and based on @MatthewDuckett1’s experiences during his stay in Zambia’s capital #Lusaka. Don’t miss it! @burohappold

[Matthew Duckett @MatthewDuckett1]

@DirkRinze Ha- I may have just the thing... 😉
