My David Attenborough story, for his 98th birthday.
A few years ago, I decided to write to David to let him know how much his work meant to me - he was one of my childhood heros, 'Life On Earth' was incredible to this 5 year old...
So I wrote a letter...
🧵
A week later, almost by return of post, I received a handwritten reply, thanking me for my letter and saying how much he appreciated my taking the time to write.
It was so lovely to receive.

'The #Pulborough Area' #torc was found in #Sussex in 2019. At first glance, the torc appears to be an #IronAge example. However, closer examination suggests it may be later 19th/earlier 20th century in date.
But if it is, how on earth did it end up in a Sussex field? 2/6

Just voted & discovered that you can make an official complaint about requirement for photo ID at the vote - election officers will take down your complaint name & address & pass it to the elections teams... so please folks - have your say!
#Vote#PhotoID#Elections2023
... and please folks, if you do this, be kind to the election staff- they're doing a thankless task and are likely to get a lot of trouble today. If you have to wait when it's busy, wait kindly.
