So this Saturday we have a chance to say our final goodbye to our former leader Chris Jacklin. There will be a memorial and celebration of Life Service at St Mary's church Burnham Market 1pm. Followed by refreshments at the Jolly Sailors. – at Burnham Market, England

Over on Instagram @ChefTomKerridge has posted this about the 27 people who booked for @kerridgesbandg on Saturday night and didn’t turn up. It’s a completely justifiable howl of rage. If you book a restaurant, either go or cancel in good time. Don’t be a dick and just not show.

Let’s put things into perspective! @BorisJohnson currently has 34 special advisors (all paid £75,000 + with 10 of them being paid £95,000+) but if he can’t run the government without DC - then why have 33 other spads (who clearly do nothing without Cummings involved) #cummimgs

“Norwich won’t have the same levels of immunity as other areas,” This may, says Professor Andy Jones at Norwich Medical School at the University of East Anglia, cause some difficulties coming out at the other end #KeepTheLockdown
Our local surgery has just put out an alert saying they are seeing a rise in Covid cases locally. So not all areas are past the peak, while complacency seems to be becoming the norm. Local nursery & pet food store was packed at the weekend & more traffic on the roads every day.

Every time you go out, you increase the risk to your family, friends and community.

The 'Historical #Maps of #Norfolk' website is a great free resource for researchers of all ages wanting to learn more about the county's historical/geographical development. Visit bit.ly/2yEaoZh (Pic Norwich Cycling Association, 1939) #learnathome #homeschooling

Did you know that you can explore @museumofnorwich virtually through Google Arts & Culture? See the entire museum & explore the collection without even leaving the house! Can you find the shoe nicknamed 'The Toast Rack' by factory workers? ow.ly/LGyp50yROQY

Your grandparents and great-grandparents were called to defend their countries. We are being called to stay at home and wash our hands. Don't let them down.

Boris Johnson told Sophy Ridge on Sky News this morning that the naughtiest thing he has done is “cycling on the pavement” forgetting being sacked twice for lying, writing racist newspaper articles & agreeing to get a journalist beaten up, and more. – at Byker, England

Ok I understand that if you have party loyalty it’s easy to dismiss certain things but... “Inequality is essential for the spirit of envy” SURELY finishes him off with every working class voter in the country? What more do we need? How much clearer could it be?
This is the utterly stunning video that Boris Johnson hoped and prayed you would never see. Remember his words: “Inequality is essential.” This should finish him. #GE2019 #SackJohnsonSaveBritain

This is so true. We KNOW how to fix rivers. We KNOW how to bring back the birds and the insects. And we still sit in offices, terrified of doing it wrong, or of loosing control.
Last week I was on Taransay with Roy Dennis. We are agreed that the time for talking is long gone and that we must act now to start restoring what’s left. There it may be great yellow bumblebees. We do not want to spend more time sitting on pointless committees. We want to do.

It is with great regret that we have decided to cancel our new years celebrations @TheJollySailors. The decision was made last night as we will not have any musicians. Benny our banjo man is in hospital and Ken our guitar player is having surgery on his foot. – at Burnham Market, England
