We really hope those of you l following our day by day, hour by hour, blow by blow #SiegeOfColchester posts, are getting a feel for what the town endured back in 1648.
If so, you might also be interested in these video siege diaries from @ColMuseums:

West Ham fans of a certain age know, every blade of grass on the Upton Park pitch was nourished by that man's sweat and blood.
Remembering Billy Bonds.

NEW: 93 murders in London (pop: ~9m) in 12 months to October.
The city's murder rate is now lowest for decades; perhaps centuries. https://t.co/T0o7Q0bgVw
@johncoffeyqc Midfield is difficult. Stewart Robson won hammer of the year, Kevin keen played loads too, but who else do you pick in central midfield? Not many fringe players there.
For no reason at all, here's my West Ham 80s, fringe 11.l:
G: Tom McAlister
D: Paul Brush
D: Tommy MacQueen
D: Steve Walford/Gary Strodder
D: Paul Hilton
M: François Van der Elst
M: Stewart Robson
M: Kevin Keen
M: Bobby Barnes
F:: Sandy Clark
F: Steve Whitton

Today’s deferment of the loan note protects shareholders and restores value; allowing #AVCT to focus on the advancement of preCISION.
TVR5 would like to see Richard Hughes move into an executive position. His track record of protecting shareholders is clear.

So, I've just spent a bit of time looking into the debate on IHT and farming. I... got a shock. First, a note: I have a friend who runs a family farm. In his view, the whole thing is a something and nothing. 🧵

I work for HMRC, over 85% of those new vape shops and new barbers that are opening up on every high street in the country are money laundering operations. We know this but we don't have the resource to stop it.
We’re in Colchester teching Unbelievable before it opens. It’s the loveliest place. @mercurytheatre is sensational (can’t imagine anywhere finer to open a show), and the pretty town has Porto’s Coffee, where Porto himself sometimes plays Spanish guitar behind the Marzocco.
@RoshaneSport I have to say from a west ham standpoint this transfer was handled the best I can ever remember under Sullivan. We didn't undersell our best asset, we offered him a lucrative deal which he respectfully refused and Rice form never dipped in pursuit of a move. Rare for us 😅
