TODAY Saturday at 2.30pm cyclists will place a white wheel in memory of Lee Stallwood behind The Deva Tap. Lee was killed on Hoole Bridge on his bicycle. If you believe it should be safe to cycle in Chester please come along. @ShitChester @standardchester @Dee1063

Remembering:
The people who had fought in WW2, when they got home, voted in a Labour government who then established the Welfare State and NHS.
They had been fighting AGAINST people who:
Persecuted minorities
Liked flags
Got off on their own bogus sense of racial superiority.

@NorgeChester @Chester_Cycling A very fine racecourse!

Another of Ellie Slorach’s mind boggling warm ups. Never seen in concert, a good warm up is essential to get the vocal cords, and the brain into the right place for rehearsal and performance. Performing 21st June, St Thomas’s Church Chester https://t.co/43pXx5lHWi

The "Lacrimosa" in Mozart's requiem is so powerful Nike were using it to sell trainers more than 200 years later. Have a look, it’s a great ad. Come and hear it for real on 21st June. It's even better live!

How to react to wildfires in the mountains. Increasing risk of encountering this, even in Scotland. Doesn’t seem to UK advice yet but this seems pretty sensible https://t.co/4evkd8xWG3

@drewhill79 Just noticed, the person behind her has got a whopping great rucksack!

Toronto crash: Hats off to her, plane flipped upside down but this lady still got off the with her massive bag. Do you think she calmly got it out of the overhead locker?

@hlpdesk_manair hi I have booked car parking with a non amendable booking starting at 1pm. I now need to get flight hours earlier in the day so need to park at 5am. Can I book another slot 5am to 1pm and the two will count as one session? Or do you need to drive out and back in?

@disgustedoftwe1 @BBCNews Increasing the price of tobacco has decreased the number of people smoking. Alcohol minimum pricing has reduced deaths by alcohol in other countries. You can’t eliminate addiction but you can reduce consumption

If you are usually a car driver but you are interested in cycling around Chester, there are lots of low traffic routes that you may not know about. CCC run a cycle buddies scheme where you can be shown routes near you so you can cycle without having to tussle with the traffic

Chester Cycling campaign kicked off ATfest (ActiveTravel) with the “Glamorous Gals and Dapper Chaps bike ride. Dressed up smart and on all manner of bikes, they explored the cycle routes of Chester

@MartineBBC I am 40 days into a long cycling trip across Europe. The apartment where I am staying in Bailesti, Romania has BBC News. You don’t know me of course, but just to say it was great to see your friendly face and hear your excellent, always slightly wry, delivery.
