Some of you on here will have known Dr Tony Zigmond who sadly died yesterday. He worked for many years as a psychiatrist in Leeds and was an Hon Fellow and former Vice President of @rcpsych. He will be greatly missed. RIP Tony.

I went to Starbase for a recent holiday. Swam in the Gulf of Mexico at the beach next to launch site. It was awesome.

Three years since the first flight of Starship, the next generation is here. New ship. New booster. New engines. New pad and new test site. SpaceX engineers are working to solve one of the most difficult engineering challenges in history: developing a fully, rapidly reusable rocket

@aimless1986 @NASASpaceflight No, launch will be June at the very earliest

@VictoriaCoren -been travelling all day, so the 4 year old got up to join us for Only Connect.

Not only could he answer the Donaldson/Sheffler q., but was also wondering why you were dressed as Mariah Carey (from Fortnite.) Compulsory test cards for the next 2 weeks for him.

@DJSnM Now’s the time to throw out your link to the retailer (and your vid). Hope you’re well.

We are seeing a tragic reminder of what mental health care learned in 1990s, leading to

•assertive outreach teams as national policy - by 2004 every service had one

•community treatment order in a revised MH Act in 2007.

These are still key to preventing patient homicide.

@Erdayastronaut @blueorigin @JeffBezos Good job, Tim. And pretty brave of Jeff B to guide you. I am interested to see what his depth of knowledge is like.
