I have no recollection of the show's content but it was Animal Kwackers and I still inexplicably remember the theme tune. Bongo, Rory, Twang & Boots were the band members.

A wonderful idea to help rewild a little corner of N Wales and provide a range of habitats in a largely agricultural landscape. @glaslynospreys.bsky.social www.dailypost.co.uk/news/north-w...

I’ve been frustrated to see so much of the ongoing story about asylum seekers and the protests against them covered without hearing from those seeking asylum and now being met with hostility and hatred I set out to speak to those directly affected to find out about the impact this is having 👇

We escaped war and torture but now we feel unsafe in Britain

Special report: Amid protests and rising aggression towards asylum seekers across the country, we spoke to those being targeted

For over 25 years, science and discovery centres have been at the heart of inspiring millions of people to explore, question, and be part of UK science and technology. But they're seriously under threat… 1/3

It's pay day. I donated £30 to the UN World Food Programme who last week delivered 350 truckloads of food to Gaza under extremely dangerous conditions. But it’s not enough. They want to rush in as much food as they can. Who will match my £30 donation and pass it on? donate.wfp.org/1244/donatio...

I teach history and couldn't agree more. Always annoyed me.

A wonderful shot of a fascinating building. We visited Lagrasse recently and I wondered if it would ever feature in your work!

Crows will not just play in the snow - they'll teach themselves to snowboard too. (Thanks for reminding me of this great video!) youtu.be/PBlxNkyrMJs?...

The refereeing in the Prem is making me feel like a conspiracy nut and this sort of thing isn't helping.

The NHS should just stop paying the Royal Family rent. What are they going to do about it? If they really want to pick a fight with the NHS they're toast.

As Terry Pratchett wrote: No one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away... While you remember them, while you scramble over hut circles and defensive ditches, they are still with you.

Last saw them in Nottingham but 5+ yrs ago at Rescue Rooms. Thunder and Quireboys, though... don't tell me David Coverdale and Joe Perry were at the bar to complete the Donnington 90 reunion.

Wow! Takes me back 30 yrs, that!

The Quireboys in a brewery? What more could you ask for on a Saturday night? V envious!

A chip off the old block. My daughter has the same toy but uses it to make a train shed for Thomas and Percy. As a history graduate, I play along through gritted teeth and drop in words like 'gatehouse' and 'battlements'. She won't buy it. "Shhh! Silly daddy!"

The effort is all worth it for moments such as today, when a Y4 student asked me about how "Basil Brush knew it was an Anglo Saxon ship" when he excavated Sutton Hoo.

As an undergraduate, flitting between the Archaeology and Classics department, I wondered what exotic path my studies might take me on. Fast forward 30 years and I'm currently on 18 masks cut out, 12 more to do.

A pile of masks based on the Sutton Hoo helmet sit on a cutting board alongside a craft knife.
