Emotional meeting w/ wounded Ukrainian soldiers at Superhumans Rehabilitation Center in Lviv. I was in awe of their courage, patriotism, optimism for the future, total lack of bitterness + self-pity and confidence in Ukraine’s victory. True heroes!

As my football team depressingly struggle to get into the play-offs in English football’s fifth tier, happy memories 39 years ago when @Official_NCFC beat Manchester United - and Manchester City were fighting a relegation battle. 🙂

A lovely weekend in Newquay speaking at the @rotary1175 District Conference in Newquay. After two years of Covid, it’s great to be networking again and catching up with good friends.

Persuaded a couple of journalism friends to visit @UCFB to discuss media trends. @chriswarburton_ from BBC Radio 5Live was joined by former Southern Daily Echo editor, Ian Murray, to talk to media students, despite the din of soundchecks before Sunday’s Carabao Cup Final.

Finally completed running the 100-mile South Downs Way with a tough finish in Eastbourne. Final 7 mile 15th stage over the Seven Sisters from Exceat was gruelling. A fabulous adventure running along a spectacular, hilly route. – at Eastbourne, England
