Heathrow to pipe 'sounds of an airport' around airport
The airport has commissioned a soundtrack recorded on site to reflect the "excitement" of waiting to board a flight.

It's #WaterfallWednesday 💙 Scale Haw Force is a pretty little waterfall a short walk from the village of Hebden in Wharfedale. What's not to love about this photograph! 📸 With thanks to Alex William Helin #YorkshireDales #Yorkshire #Dales #Wharfedale #NatureTherapy
A serene waterfall cascades over a rocky cliff surrounded by lush greenery. Multiple streams of water create a misty effect as they hit moss-covered rocks below. Sunlight filters through the trees, illuminating parts of the waterfall and foliage

Hen Tor & Willings Walls Common. Yep, nothing here but species-poor grassland, Molinia, and a bit of bracken. And a lot of sheep scattered about. The opportunity cost of maintaining the current grazing regime on this land is huge. It's as much a failure of the imagination as anything else.
