Our previous generations of black swans are getting on really well, sticking together and showing just how strong the family bond can be. With Dad, Bertie, being as dominant as ever, it’s probably for the best they’re keeping close – there’s safety (and sanity!) in numbers 😅💪
With @BetteJBaldwin at Remembrance Sunday #Nailsea#NorthSomerset war memorial at Holy Trinity Church. A good attendance by the community in beautiful Autumn sunshine.
We all need scrutiny but calling the National Trust's staff & members lunatics and marxists and zealots over what gets served in our cafes is not scrutiny. Attacks on independent institutions have been growing in democracies around the world. Every little matters.
We’ve enjoyed a fabulous day remembering L/Cpl Fred Room VC at his former #Bristol home where a @BristolCivicSoc blue plaque was unveiled. Photos on this link plus a detailed look at this remarkable man’s life. Please do RT as it’s been a lot of work!

Pleased to attend the blue plaque ceremony in StGeorge Bristol at former home of Fred Room, gallant VC recipient. Lots of research into Fred’s life by @jbanningww1 & Clive Burlton - a fascinating story worthy of celebrating. @BristolCivicSoc @frothelhorse
For some time I have been working with my colleague Clive Burlton on getting a @BristolCivicSoc blue plaque erected on the #Bristol house of Fred Room VC. It's happening on Friday at 11am, details here: bristolcivicsociety.org.uk/unveiling-of-b…
Please do come along if you can!

Well, almost back in Bristol after this year’s Western Front Footsteps tour. It’s been an absolute joy with such a lovely group. I’ll post some more photos in the next few days.
