@scenicviews @ccfest I'm logged in with my renewed Rover membership and am seeing just a handful of "big" shows (Transatlantic Sessions, Lankum ..) available. Nearly all are "not on sale".

@WillCMaddox @robjordan @Advocate_ED @chughesbabb Strange. She seems much younger and more glamorous than the person @robjordan is usually seen with.

@SW_Help There are no Advance tix available on the 7:48 WIN to WAT on 11 Mar, yet the trains are running normally and other trains that morning all have Advance tix on sale. Is this intentional?

It's only 2nd July but definitely autumn! Hundreds of Avocets, Curlews and Black-tailed Godwits on the Thames this evening and even a Little Stint on the new scrape by Coalhouse Fort. Time to start taking the scope again @EssexBirdNews

@arjtee @pdcawley @owenralph Spens was stitched up by his enemies. He knew only too well that he was a lousy sailor but he had no way to defy the king's order.

@tomjbirding Is that really the plural of twite?

@ClaraTheCoder No! You can't go to Scotland.

#FantasyCycleTour, day 8.
I'm sure many of you have visited cities described as "the Venice of ...". North, South, East and West all have claimants; even a Venice of the Pacific.

#FantasyCycleTour, day 7.
We are in Porto. JK Rowling plotted the Harry Potter books here. Many of the city's landmarks have claimed an association, especially the lavishly beautiful bookshop, Livraria Lello.

Today we entered Portugal, crossing the frontier on the Santa Rita de Cassia ferry across the Minho river.

#FantasyCycleTour, day 4, with @monxton:
Multiple caminos converge on Santiago de Compostela (a 'Mecca' for pilgrims). British people talk about the Camino Francés, which starts in France, as if it is THE camino. Our cycling route today hugged the Camino Inglés, from Ferrol.

@xavignu @robjordan Yes, the photo is somewhere on the line from Foz to Viveiro.

#FantasyCycleTour day 3:

We've spent the day chugging through Asturias and Galicia on a little white, yellow and blue narrow-gauge train. Curious-looking; one correspondent said it resembled a milk carton, with its squared-off shape.
