@PeterTFortune @222aghoststory @NewsShopper Well deserved Sir, you will be a tad busy for the next few weeks, and then a number of years, but at some point, in a slightly quieter moment, we will need to share a glass or two to celebrate and remember such stories of another time 🍻 I look forward to it.

[Andy Parkes @ParkesTheEditor]

So, you decided the time was finally right.
@PeterTFortune
I am absolutely convinced you will be elected on July 4.
The only thing I'm more sure of is the fact you're the best qualified, not to mention talented, person I know to become #Bromley and #BigginHill MP.

[Andy Parkes @ParkesTheEditor]

I realise it won't win any photography awards, but was out on my bike and saw these, which made me think of you. @ilikebirduk Of course, pic could have been better and I could have avoided a shadow, but didn't want to risk a broken arm!
Hope you're well and thriving sir.

[Andy Parkes @ParkesTheEditor]

@CearaMacintyre Good point, well made - but luckily, if I do overdo it there's a couch to crash out on.

[Andy Parkes @ParkesTheEditor]

@iancarterIM @MattRamsden1 Wow, @MattRamsden1 a veteran. What worries me is I remember thinking how young he was when he joined our news team. You're not helping me feel any younger @iancarterIM 😉

[Andy Parkes @ParkesTheEditor]

@CearaMacintyre Just reminded me, I still need to book the train to go and see Harry Styles in a week's time!

[Ceara @CearaMacintyre]

Has anyone ever been happier to score a goal for St Mirren? Possibly not 😂

[Andy Parkes @ParkesTheEditor]

@CearaMacintyre That is a very impressive looking football shirt, and as someone who has trekked around a large number of shops searching out football tops with you I feel qualified to make judgement! 😉🍺

RIP Doddie Weir 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The world of rugby has lost one of its most colourful characters.

[Andy Parkes @ParkesTheEditor]

Great interview, brilliant to see you getting so much out of football again, not to mention giving something back too. And, to be doing it with your beloved Saints - icing on the cake. Here's to many more great goals. ⚽️🍾👍

Hi, Please can you let me know if the boating lake is open today?
@RavensgateArms

[Andy Parkes @ParkesTheEditor]

@CearaMacintyre And not even wearing a knee support - best foot forward. I reckon you got back to proper sport in half the time it took me. Good for you, here's to many great games to come. 🙌

I'm not one to rubbish other people's efforts, but this kind of childish scaremongering reflects badly on the rest of us too.
The regional media do a great job, but what's unfolding in Ukraine is bad enough without inventing irresponsible scare stories.

[Andy Parkes @ParkesTheEditor]

@iancarterIM My favourite was the guy just released from prison who marched into our Cheam office with a stuffed fox under one arm and a revolver in his other hand. He smashed into 6 cars escaping from the car park - all ad rep's cars as reporters weren't as 'crucial' and parked on the road.

[Andy Parkes @ParkesTheEditor]

Great to see Mr P is getting the chance to indulge a real passion. If you haven't done so already, you should tune in and give him a listen.

[Tony Portelli @originalTonyP]

It was a pleasure to be interviewed by Sophie Martin of the @youngreporterhq who do such great work for aspiring journalists https://t.co/LsVQQEtvJC

[Andy Parkes @ParkesTheEditor]

Bloody typical, the one thing on my Christmas list and the beardy bugger has kept it for himself. Not only that but he's taunting me across the street from my new house.

[Andy Parkes @ParkesTheEditor]

No contest - hand of God, will never forgive him, not even in the grave! You've reminded me it still pains me now.

Honoring all veterans today. Here’s a pic of my father W. A. Broad in his Fleet Air Arm uniform at Gibraltar in WWII.
