#chippingnorton defies the rural Tory pattern. Chippy has historic form for radicalism such as early support for #tradeunions and the #CoOp. My walking tours tell stories beyond #chippingnortonsetcliches . @BBGuides @ChippyNews theguardian.com/politics/202…

Water can be amazingly soothing and regenerative. Even a perch next to the humble River Chelt can raise the spirits.
Good to see Cheltenham’s excellent Sandford Lido is sufficiently ‘chic’ to feature in this Times article today. Do you have a favourite lido? thetimes.co.uk/article/best-…
