@KM_newsroom How can we, the ordinary people of Kent, who have to negotiate the nightmare gridlocks caused by this 4 month closure, be heard? Somebody, please at least do something about the roadworks still being allowed along the A2.

[Hilary Spon @hilaryspon]

@Kent_Online It's a nightmare. How can we voice our thoughts and is anybody going to listen? It took me 1 hour 20 minutes to get back to Canterbury from Sittingbourne last Friday - and that was before the M2 slip roads were closed!

[Hilary Spon @hilaryspon]

@Kent_Online Huge disruption in Sittingbourne since closure. It was already bad due to numerous roadworks with traffic lights and gridlocking at Snipeshill. I go to Sittingbourne twice a week and to date I have not seen anybody actually working there; and this is set to last until Jan.!

@CeneMagazine @DreamlandMarg Can't wait for the release. Actually saw myself in the teaser, dressed in mint green, going up the stairs in the specially built cinema foyer: a couple of seconds of film that'll probably be the only shot of me from 2 long days of filming - but worth it!

[Hilary Spon @hilaryspon]

@peter22sut @savebutterflies Yes, I'll leave it to my husband, who is signed up to iRecord, and tells me I could use it on my laptop if I wanted to! Sorry about my rant and thanks to everyone who told me about iRecord.

I just counted 10 butterflies in the Big #ButterflyCount but annoyingly couldn't record the Wall Browns or Skippers that we saw as they're not on the list. How useful is this incomplete count? Help @SaveButterflies & join in. https://t.co/pbDuMkZmkz #ButterflyCount

[Hilary Spon @hilaryspon]

@savebutterflies Understood, but what about Large Whites, Common Whites and Green Veined Whites - I bet people get them wrong - but I suppose they are not considered so important in the grand scheme?

[Hilary Spon @hilaryspon]

@patriciaclegg @savebutterflies I think it's a first for our garden in Kent.

[Hilary Spon @hilaryspon]

@thenorfolkcoast @savebutterflies Thank you to everyone who told me about iRecord. I'll have to consider whether or not I want another app; it would be good if people who don't have smart phones could be able to take part in a meaningful way.

[Hilary Spon @hilaryspon]

@Mayfieldbirder @savebutterflies Yes, they are difficult, but I had my husband to help and he does other counts for BC. Large Whites, Small Whites and Green Veined Whites are all problematic so I'm sure they are probably wrongly identified a lot of the time.

[Hilary Spon @hilaryspon]

I just counted 9 butterflies in the Big #ButterflyCount. Plus Brown Argus and Small Skipper (not on list!). Help @SaveButterflies & join in https://t.co/SMzw7g22gf #ButterflyCount

A merlin on the marsh in May!?!? Bit of a surprise yesterday. Wonderful to see but watch out waders!!

[AusPlantSoc @GondwanaPlants]

Super to see Mona's garden featured in the @RHS Garden magazine with her wonderful collection of Australasian plants and #NationalPlantCollection of Corokia

[Hilary Spon @hilaryspon]

@fossilplants @BBC @BBCEarth @bbcstudios @Love_plants Yes, saw that, well done. Just being nosey, but can you say what aspect of the programme were you involved in.

[Hilary Spon @hilaryspon]

@neish397 @ElmleyNNR Wonderful; one of my favourite places. We were there yesterday and lost count of the number of Marsh Harriers we saw during the day.

@GdnMediaGuild @Vikki_Rimmer @Plantbaseuk @BBCRadioKentAG Graham trying to blend in at @The_RHS #ChelseaFlowerShow excellent camoflage

[Hilary Spon @hilaryspon]

@HG_Philip Commiserations Philip; that's RHS judges for you, but at least you featured in The Telegraph at the weekend.

[Pineview Plants @ColinMoat1]

My new favourite plant, always like an Eryngium, especially E. zabellii and this is ‘Blue Star’ blooming gorgeous!

[Plantbase @Plantbaseuk]

grevillea leucoptra, pungent flower though.
