The state visit was fun while it lasted.

Donald Trump has posted an edited video on social media appearing to show King Charles ignoring a fainting man.

Back to work today and there's no luggage space. Going to enjoy the 5 hour journey like this.

@simonharley So many silly hats. We were a real country once.

[Matthew Plant @MatthewPlant05]

@simonharley For someone not versed in battle dress, he just looks like a very high-achieving traffic police officer.

@IncredPapist_ One of the few downsides I find to Catholic Mass is the lack of multiple hymns.

In fairness, she isn't well-versed in batting as Camilla Parker-Bowls.

@RyanThomas_Q Maverick makes Truss sound quite cool icl

Just paid £80 for a tie. God I hate adult money.

My grandparents have just given me a decanter which predates American independence. Crazy.

I've been travelling from the south of France to London via regional slow trains for the last forty-eight hours.

Absolutely no problems whatsoever. No delays, no crowded trains, nothing.

As soon as I step foot in Britain, however, my train back up north has been delayed.

In the same way HMS Queen Elizabeth* isn't named after Elizabeth II, the King Charles Spaniel** isn't named after Charles III. Non-story.

*(Elizabeth I)
**(Charles I)

[The Telegraph @Telegraph]

In a letter to the monarch, the animal rights group called on the King to disassociate his name from the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel because of the breed’s “debilitating” health problems.

Took myself to Latin mass for the first time as I'm visiting Chartres.

Brilliant. Catholic churches should do more.

[Matthew Plant @MatthewPlant05]

It's not named after Charles III 😭

[Politics Global @PolitlcsGlobal]

🚨🇬🇧 NEW: PETA has called on King Charles to disown the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

PETA says the royal name makes the breed more desirable and argues the King should not endorse breeding dogs prone to serious health conditions

Fifteen hours on French regional rail services today. Carcassonne to Chartres.

Une bouteille de vin rouge pour le voyage.

[Matthew Plant @MatthewPlant05]

Today I arrived in Carcasonne, France on holiday.

I flew budget commercial - RyanAir.

[2001 Live @25YearsAgoLive]

British Prime Minister Tony Blair and his family arrive in Carcassonne, France on holiday.

They flew budget commercial - RyanAir.

the diana, princess of wales memorial playground

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

For a child, a playground isn't a playground.

It's a pirate ship. A jungle. A castle. An adventure.

The Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Playground is open once again, giving young Londoners more room to play, explore and enjoy nature this summer.
