In light of the disgraceful actions from the top at Twitter, we are suspending all our activity on this platform for the foreseeable future.  No new tweets will appear until it is fitting to do so.

Red Leicester waiting to welcome the giant puppet Storm to Leicester as part of the City Festival. They sang environmental songs to her, including There is no Planet B. Quite an amazing sight.
