This is awful. The last ever Denby Pottery going to the kiln. Why is there not uproar? Where’s the government in this?? We all have Denby in our homes, in family heirlooms, as our history and now it’s closing through lack of support, such a sad sad day. #SaveDenby @denbypottery

A work colleague sent me this photo of sheep in a field of dandelions taken on his evening walk. I think it’s beautiful. He gave me permission to post it and reckoned it might get 100 likes. I bet him it would make at least 1000. Off you go folks - do your thing 😂

Law firm Axiom Ince collapsed with £64m of client money missing.
