Nice to see a proper floaty foxtrot. A bit of proper ballroom. Subject to judges comments of course. Well done John and Katya #strictly

Strictly Come Dancing Live Scoreboard

Those early dancers must be getting a bit sick of the inflation that is happening to the later scoring. The strictlyscoreboard.com is almost in order of appearance and even those not dancing the dance they have been allocated are mid table #strictly

strictlyscoreboard.com

A live leaderboard that updates as the Saturday Strictly Come Dancing show is broadcast. Check previous show scores and compare dances and pairings over the course of the Strictly season.

I'd suggest whoever did the choreography might be at fault for not filling the dance with actual quick steps. Good point that if it is quickstep they are being judged on then maybe they need to do some #strictly

That was very quick and quite steppy #strictly

The judges comments aren't a discussion so zip it, and that includes you Widdy #strictly

There are so many contestants at this stage of #strictly but bringing out Will first was an unexpected bonus #scd. Let the dancing begin

Holiday postcard from an enjoyable week in Southern Scotland. Mainly the Rhins and Machars of Galloway based in Newton Stewart

Well that was an enjoyable #masterchefuk final. Can't imagine the former judges being proud of their contestants and it has been interesting to see Grace switch from snooty critic to proud parent

This sign is in Wigtown for #fingerpostFriday. It is known as Scotland's book town which is why book shops feature on two of the fingers

A green finger post stands 9n a street corner with houses behind. The directions on the fingers are in white text on a green background and include destinations such as book shops and the bird hide

An unexpected delay to my train this morning was #NetworkRail track inspection vehicle 153385 which stopped at the platform for the crew to change ends before heading back south down the Arun Valley line. With recent worries about track conditions it's good to know it is being inspected #ukrailways

Neither Horsham council nor the West Chiltington silver band are on here but great to have a bit of music in the Carfax market this morning. Lots of crowd pleasers from the band and plenty of people sitting in the sun enjoying it

While sitting outside enjoying lunch in Canary Wharf I noticed that the DLR trains were being reflected in the glass of the Market Halls and quite liked it

Loose tea in a pot and rhubarb scones. Rhubarb? Yes. Delicious. Let's just say we enjoyed our lunch in Arundel (Cockburns tea room)

It was a very Bluesky day at Shoreham-by-Sea this afternoon and my favourite local hero sculpture (RNLI coxswain Peter Huxtable) was still looking good by the Adur Ferry Bridge

Visited Leith Hill this afternoon and found the tower open. Thanks to the lovely @nationaltrust.org.uk people for tipping me off on what to look for (Wind turbines off Shoreham, Gatwick, the Shard) and for allowing me to go to the highest spot in South East England at 313m above sea level

Went to John Lewis for pillowcases only to find a pack 'reduced to clear' from £7.65 to £9. So went for a different pack marked at £14 for two which scanned at £10. Needless to say the assistant said it was beyond her control. Disappointing #computersaysno moment

Another month complete. Looking back over the grid is my favourite part - even if sometimes finding a photo on a day when I've not done much can be tricky. 365project.org/nickrh14/365...

You can choose your own reasons why you visit the @nationaltrust.org.uk but even if it is just for the rabbits in the rooms then that is ok. Doesn't just have to be for the history, scones or the plant shop like this one at Standen in Sussex that we visited today

Little rabbits were in some of the rooms if you looked for them. Not just rabbits, active characters like this one with a sewing machine

Looking more like Peter Rabbit this character was sitting next to a black vase or jug

A sign from the cafe at Standen offering the scone of the month for July. Sadly the scones on offer today looked rather small and dry so we didn't get to taste them

An amazing collection of brightly coloured dahlias in the plant shop

Lucky Donald Trump is in the crowd if there is a debate about a #worldcup final red card. Apparently he's an expert

Any Canadians or Mexicans involved in this jointly hosted #worldcup final or has Mr President stopped them at the border?

Nick @nickrh14.eurosky.social · 19/07/2026

Good to hear Tom Cruise referring to football in his pre #worldcup kick off address. Presumably the locals are all scratching their heads wondering why he isn't talking about "soccer"

Listening to podcasts and just heard @bbcwitnesshistory.bsky.social about slip, slop, slap in Australia. Always an interesting listen but, as they warned, it is a catchy tune that is now resident in my head. Catch up with Sid the seagull if you dare... www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w...

Lovely breezy walk at Saddlescombe Farm on the South Downs Way with a bonus of bread pudding at the Wildflour Cafe and plenty of butterflies

Table has a black tablecloth with white flower designs. On that is a flower pot with purple petunias, a small blue plate with a red border which has a slice of bread pudding and a silver fork on it and a brown coloured paper cup of tea

What else do people try to do in the hotel conveyor belt toaster? In my experience the first pass doesn't toast enough and the second pass today's too much, but it is still toast

It's a win win. I get a lightly loaded commute home after an office day and the OH can watch the football which will hopefully be over by the time I get in. I'll still be expecting dinner on the table obviously. Definitely fewer people waiting for the Jubilee Line at Canary Wharf as I departed

As we get to 1 July and the rainbow-washing suddenly ends, it's a good reminder

Sunset at 2119 is lovely but it was 2120 yesterday so you know what that means

With the weather cooling down we visited Kithurst Hill on the South Downs for a butterfly walk. Lots of those to see but that may be because of the wonderful range of wildflowers including these orchids #bloomsky
