@RossBeadle @historian1914 @sworrall @policybloke @AndrewRawson11 @SeaSpitfires @ChristinaNoyes8 Would be great to see some analysis of Robertson as CGS to Sir John French, for example.

@RossBeadle @historian1914 @sworrall @policybloke @AndrewRawson11 @SeaSpitfires @ChristinaNoyes8 Agreed was just thinking about this the other day Ross.

@sworrall @policybloke @AndrewRawson11 @SeaSpitfires @ChristinaNoyes8 @historian1914 I’m still pretty much stuck in 1915! (Except for Mesopotamia and Palestine)

A betwixtmas visit to Norfolk and stopped into Swaffham, where I took the time to visit the town war memorial, the wonderful memorial window in the church, and the grave of Sir Arthur Kynvet Wilson, VC.

@battlegames Wow Henry I’m coming to yours next year! LOL

[Nigel Atter MSc @nigel_atter]

@battlegames Well said Henry

A wonderfully uplifting story about groundbreaking surgery at @RoyalPapworth, where surgeons transplanted a pair of lungs revived outside the body in a hi-tech box.

Medical science doing its magnificent, awe-inspiring, life-enhancing thing 💙🫁

Very first time I see the words on the Cross in Afrikaans!
What is the rule @JuanMaree @jaffergullam ?
Windhoek Old Cemetery, Namibia, WW1 and WW2 casualties.

@visit_leicester @VisitEnglandBiz Yes, also a tradition in Lincolnshire. My dad always had a piece of pork pie Christmas morning,

I learned an astonishing statistic over the weekend - 10% of Gypsy, Roma, and Traveller people die by suicide. The NHS Race & Health Observatory has launched a series of short films that present the lived experience of people from these communities. Please share.

@PunkRockStory The Clash by The Clash!

[Stephen Chambers @SteveJChambers]

A Polish #SOE agent who wreaked havoc in #WW2 German occupied Greece, accounting for the sinking of two Nazi U-Boats amongst other targets. The film named ‘Agent No.1’ about his wartime exploits is worth a watch

[Nigel Atter MSc @nigel_atter]

@nickfshort Same. We didn’t have a video recorded so I used to tape the audio and listen back to it before the next episode

[Nigel Atter MSc @nigel_atter]

@LouBell Congratulations Lou 🥳🥳🥳🥳

[Spencer Jones @historian1914]

Join @DanHillHistory & I on the #podcast this week as we discuss one of the definitive weapons of #WW1 - the machine gun. How did they work and why did they reshape the Western Front?

Available wherever you get your podcasts! #war #History

@UKFCOT @HealthRegLawyer @TheHCPC Can’t see it happening with their current methods and processes. Change is required. HCPC is not fit for purpose to met the PSA’s standards on FTP. It hasn’t done so for at least 7 or 8 years now.

@MartinSLewis My patents bought two, £1 each. One in 1958 and one in 1959. They haven’t won anything.
