As someone who has suffered several major episodes of #depression, including a short spell in hospital, I offer my heartfelt condolences to the family of the great #grahamthorpe. There is life on the other side. Hang on to hope @LifeAfloat @Rethink_ @mind
"They want to heighten the awareness of the illness that took him, but also want to emphasise that his life should not be defined by that. There was far, far more to him than that."
Graham Thorpe's family have shared their memories of the great man in a moving piece in today's edition of The Times.

We're lucky to have a selection Nick's work for sale at An Tobar, both framed and unframed prints are available so if you're in Tobermory, pop in and say 'Hi!', the staff are a friendly lot

We towed a hydrophone 14,000km to estimate that 2,800 sperm whales live in the Mediterranean Sea (corrected for acoustic availability). Most surprising result for me was the high densities off Algeria 🇩🇿, near a busy shipping thoroughfare #ACCOBAMS #ASI

An inspiring read of a truly remarkable man and an extraordinary journey. Be careful though. This book might inspire you to buy a sea kayak... it happened to me 😉

A good programme to watch Rhod highlighting HPV head & neck throat cancer.
It’s a tough gig but HPV cancer can be avoided with the next generations so please check out the vaccine for boys & girls around 12 to 13 years old.

Home for the long weekend. Cracked a @WildeChildBeer and reading this amazing book by @LifeAfloat. Nick, your writing really makes me feel like I'm living it with you. Excellent.

The sea has no memory, and cares not about your past or future. Yet there is comfort to be found in its cold perpetual present. #estuary
