Used to be quite fun. Leggy supermodel fashionista & socialite trapped in the body of a middle aged Marlborough mum of 3. Juggling lots. Dropping bits.

@zsk Completely this. And if I do see a post from a friend - it's often about 5 days after they posted.

@bbcweather The otters in the River Kennet in central Marlborough are the only ones finding this weather entertaining

@krishgm Here’s Dolly at the polling station on Tresco on the Isles of Scilly

God I miss him.

[James O'Brien @mrjamesob]

This is very good. The best articulation I’ve heard.

[H @helenmelons]

@MarTEAnisEddy It absolutely is. Pretty sure I've called most of my besties that or something very similar at some point or another. I think taking offence is a reach.

Listening to @maitlis and @jonsopel advise @Guto_Harri on why truth matters. I needed mid week wine to get through his pathetic justifications @newsagentspod

@MarlboroNews Hello - don't want to be 'that guy' but it's 'Kington Langley' with no 's' . Thanks for the info though!

[H @helenmelons]

So I'm running (well let's all call it that 'kay??) @LondonMarathon for @BrainTumourOrg in memory of Bobby Cox, who died of a brain tumour in 2014 just before his 6th Birthday. His mum Harriet and I are hauling our carcasses around London in his honour https://t.co/OL5RJQ49Oc

@GaryLineker Thank you for continuing to demonstrate such integrity.

The BBC is censoring Gary Linekar and David Attenborough for fear a tweet and programme about rewilding undermines their impartiality, but standing by a Chair who parliament itself has said hasn't told them the whole truth about his loans to Boris.

Funny old world isn't it..

[Nathan @NathanAClark]

Gary Linekar is not a radical.

He's a soft, warm, easy centrist liberal. He's not a fighter. He's not a protestor. He exists perfectly comfortably within the system. But they've managed to make his easy and obvious position a radical one.

[Victoria Derbyshire @vicderbyshire]

‘Are we seriously having a discussion that a tweet from @GaryLineker has done more damage to the BBC’s impartiality than your Chairman?’

@campbellclaret on the Linekar tweets

[Sam Freedman @Samfr]

These are the BBC rules on social media and it is v hard to see how Lineker broke them. (Via @kitandrew1)

I have informed the BBC that I won’t be appearing on MOTD tomorrow night.

Everybody knows what Match of the Day means to me, but I’ve told the BBC I won’t be doing it tomorrow. Solidarity.

It's my #Twitterversary! I have been on Twitter for 14 years, since 12 Feb 2009 (via @twi_age).

[Isabel Oakeshott @IsabelOakeshott]

The death penalty demeans us all. The machinery of state should never be used to kill citizens, however monstrous their acts. I can’t believe we are even having this debate.
