Britain's wildlife is in trouble. Over half our species are declining and many face extinction. We need #WilderNationalParks that can lead the way in tackling the nature and climate crises. Sign @RewildingB’s petition for urgent government action. https://t.co/Fxuh5zZZcP

Our planned walk has been cut short as Wally the Walrus once again spotted in St.Mary's harbour #Scilly #wallythewalrus

Not only are the Isles of Scilly peaceful and beautiful, but there's also a pretty impressive range of vegan/vegetarian food options, including the fried banana blossom and chips I'm enjoying.

Self driving bicycle anyone? This is pretty cool. That it was created by a lone engineer in his spare time is even more impressive

That moment when the neurosurgery registrar asks if you'd like to do some brain surgery tonight...

The sunshine has made a morning run an even nicer way to start the day
