Tonight was pretty special. Nearly 5 years ago I watched @MusicManProject rock the @RoyalAlbertHall. I’d played a small part in the plan by Sir David Amess to get them there and pack the place out. Here’s the video I took that night where he set out their plan to play Broadway..

Brilliant event with @Alone_Soldiers. Commemorations and celebrations, opening two new yurts. These will provide warmer accommodation for the veterans camp at Cumberland fort. Well done everyone 👍🏼
Gary and his team paid moving tributes to all those they serve, and today to Marc who they lost in recent weeks. When these guys invest so much in each other it is very tough for the team when a life is lost.

The detail of what is needed to eliminate discharges from storm overflows in England, and the costs and benefits of those actions.
