Well. Today has got worse.

Just had my bags stolen from a coffee shop in soho. I think they may have ditched so if anyone sees a black PEAK backpack in soho then please let me know. It’ll have my underpants it

RTS appreciated.

@BBCRosAtkins We did Newark Airport to DC a couple of weeks ago. Loved the bit where the train appears to be at see — and the glimpse of the NJ Capitol building at Trenton.

Two director chairs, clearly sold as a paid, @charlesbentley — and yet there are two sets of instructions in two plastic bags, and two Allen keys.

@nationalrailenq But not Southern between CLJ and Portsmouth?

Thanks to everyone who messaged about my brief appearance on #hignfy last night. Always wanted to be introduced by @XanderArmstrong (still available for a newsreaders edition of #pointless, Xander!) Should say I knew nothing about this at the time, and there has been an apology.

Thank you to my friend @AndyGriffee for an advance copy of his latest canal-based crime novel, Tulip Murders. It’s set in Amsterdam, has a body count off the scale, and is a rollicking good read. And it’s out today on Amazon.

Quite what this glittery tennis ball trophy was doing outside the @bbcradio2 news studio I have no idea. But I’ve claimed it as our latest decorative addition. @OwainWynEvans

@BBCSteveR He’d have been really tickled by this!

[Adam Porter @adam1uk]

Absolutely shocked and saddened at the loss of Steve Wright. To anyone to worked in radio, he was radio. He worked incredibly hard to make his craft sound effortless. Getting to work with him was a privilege, as was being given a Wrighty nickname. A radio legend.

[Adam Porter @adam1uk]

Fantastic to meet you too!
