Some very sad news to bring you.

Former Formula 1 team owner and television pundit Eddie Jordan has passed away at the age of 76.

He had been battling prostate cancer for the past 12 months.

Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time.

Please help us save Shepperton Open Water Swim lake. The lake is under threat of having a channel cut through it, as part of the Thames flood relief scheme. This lake brings so much enjoyment to so many.

Tube on strike, I dawdled to Paddington on Friday. Passing the old wrought iron sign for Pizza Express, I was reminded of an event 30+ years ago, when I got caught up in a drama that resulted in a divorce, two marriages and many changed lives.

It began with a heart attack 🧵

I’m beginning to confuse the honours list and the sanctions list. But I suppose it doesn’t matter.

Can't believe I've only just got around to watching the documentary on the 2020 Tour of Flanders, having devoured the previous four. Watched it to get me in the mood for the worlds. Like the others, it's so, so, so good. Maybe the best.

Today, Denmark lifted all restrictions & COVID-19 is no longer deemed a "societal threat".

I led the country's largest behavioral covid-project (@HopeProject_dk) & advised the Danish gov.
