📢Numbers haven't gone up enough. Swifts need 18k more signatures. Swifts are on their way home, flying since they left our walls last August. Many will return to their homes to find them blocked off. Help them. Sign #TheFeatherSpeech ➡️https://t.co/lboVopkAgB

Following hounds with the best two dogs in the world! Views to the Isle of Wight, love this landscape. Treat to swish in my @troylondonuk cape, too! #talesofTiffin #trailhunting #houndsplease #Sussexlife https://t.co/p6a0pnbOO1

Hear hear, Owain!

Newsflash: Just contacted by a sub-editor to fact-check something I'd written! First time in ages, but SO reassuring to have a second set of eyes on your copy.

Sadly seen as superfluous by many cost-cutting publishers these days, but sub-editors rock.✊

Winter has a beauty all its own, especially on foggy morning when the sun sets the field glittering and the leaves afire #wintersunshine #winterwonderland #winterishere #foggymornings #Sussexsunshine #talesofTiffin https://t.co/TqrQ3UvfcH

Beach walk! Oh to run for the sheer joy of living! Dogs are truly good for the soul. #talesofTiffin #WestWittering #Sussexsunshine #Novembersun https://t.co/UQah8kFOyN

A day to remember the fallen and to appreciate what we have. Remembrance Service, Sunday lunch and a walk in the gloaming. Solace for the soul. #wewillrememberthem #Sussexautumn #talesofTiffin https://t.co/5odTl2DWv2

Watching @bbcstrictly with subtitles because I'm deaf and they are positioned in the middle of the screen. This obscures much of the action, including @EllieSimmonds1 face. Please remember your #deaf viewers and sort it out @BBC @RoseAylingEllis #deafness #forgottendisability

@BBC Why are you only subtitling bits of Simon Reeves South America? I can hear he's saying things, but the subtitles frequently give up, so all I know is that I'm missing bits #deaf #forgottendisability #SouthAmerica #SimonReeves

Today marks one year since I brought home the best little puppy in the world! He has brought me more joy than I ever thought possible and I can't imagine life without him! #talesofTiffin #feelinglucky https://t.co/UI5CweNACr
