@shreyas_fan It was a bit hard to tell. One or two certainly looked normal average cars, but they could have been unluckily caught in it.

Accident on the A12 Leyston 9pm. Nothing online about it though? Anyone know what’s happened? How long to clear? I’ve been stationary with my 2 year old sleeping, until she woke. I guess sadly it’s likely a fatality and they’re gathering evidence?

Can’t believe how good the photos are of the #aurora tonight just with a phone and no tripod, compared with when I first saw this 22 years ago, the grainy pictures then. The excitement hasn’t changed though!

@NatWest_Help how do I stop you sending post for a previous occupant? Emily Gilson. I don’t have her date of birth so the help line guy said he can’t help, then hung up on me!! See PM. Stop the spam!

@KensingtonRoyal I’ve had cancer and been through chemo twice. Good support is so important. I wish you and anyone going through cancer treatment tolerable side effects and a speedy recovery. Rest well. And everyone else maybe use this as a prompt to donate to @CR_UK Cancer Research UK.

If anyone is wondering what the flag is in this @BAS_News photo (by Lewis Bumstead) of the #SDA crew and scientist - it's WBB code flags, from Westminster Boating Base @WBBwatersports
2nd officer Fergus used to sail there.

@CUH_REACT are you running again now? Radiotherapy seems to think you are but I can’t see any other recent sign.

[Breast Cancer Art @ArtBreastCancer]

@ArtBreastCancer @nottsbrcancer I hope the opening went well, sorry I couldn’t join you. Well done putting it all together. X

@TalkTalk Have you tried turning it off and turning it back on again?

[Elaina Ford @ElainaFord]

@TalkTalk There’s a DM in your inbox…

[Elaina Ford @ElainaFord]

@TalkTalk No they haven’t. I still have no internet. I’ve rebooted the router dozens of times. Please fix. I’ve reported and spent and hour and a half on a broken live chat at lunch time. Still nothing fixed. It’s not just an email problem!

[Elaina Ford @ElainaFord]

@TalkTalk When is asap? It’s been all day.

[Elaina Ford @ElainaFord]

@TalkTalk my internet has been down all day, apparently it’s a problem with the phone line. 4G can’t cope as everyone is on it instead. When are you going to get this back up again? Please hurry up! CB10.

[Elaina Ford @ElainaFord]

Great to be at the @arctic_passion general assembly meeting in Denmark led by Michael Karcher @AWI_Media. We’re working on @EUPolarCluster through this project.

#RRSSirDavidAttenborough noses into the ice as it heads further into Antarctica.

The SDA can move through ice up to 1m thick at 3 knots (5.6km/h).

Thanks to Rich Turner, Purser on board the SDA for this incredible photo!
