On this day, July 16th 1969, we were “GO” for launch – and at precisely 13:32 UTC, #Apollo11 lifted off from @NASAKennedy to transport three mortal Americans – Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins and myself – to the Moon. The hard work, dedication and focus across the entire @NASA enterprise came down to this – even though it was only the beginning of our journey. But as Walter Cronkite remarked at the time, “The dawn of this day heralded the dawning of a new age. It’s a time of exhilaration, reflection, hope, fulfillment – as a centuries’ old dream starts toward reality.”

Just watching the news. I’ve circulated the world non-stop for over 40 years and met people I like, admire, trust, respect, adore, and love. Others I dislike, mistrust, and don’t respect. Gender, nationality, ethnicity, religion, or sexuality, or for that matter education and profession, are never the defining factor either way. We are endlessly privileged and responsible to live on the only known inhabited planet of billions in the endless galaxies, why do we threaten, hurt, maim, and kill each other? Live and let live I would say, realising it’s totally wishful thinking.

Not impressed @FeverTreeMixers. Kept in a cupboard away from direct sunlight, as advised and a week later it looks like this.
Disappointing as nothing now to have my birthday Patron Silver with!!

I’m a doctor originally from Afghanistan who is now proudly serving people of all backgrounds in NHS.
Despite the fear of violence against my faith & background, I won't be intimated. UK is my home & I will continue to help anyone who needs it.
We shouldn't give in to racism.
Full agreement with @PeterStefanovi2 Deliberately misleading the public has to stop
Jeez. At today’s Manifesto launch @RishiSunak tells public
“this year EVERYONE in work is getting a £900 tax cut on average”
IT’S BOLL****!
Once impact of all tax changes factored in average worker saves just £340 in 2024/25 & those earning less than £26,000 will be worse off!
Heart broken 💔 Thoughts with Rob’s family. What a truly inspiring individual & family. RIP
It is with deep sadness that the club can confirm that former player Rob Burrow CBE has passed away, aged 41.

A must watch video as always!

Conservative MPs are again out making insane calls for the UK to join Russia & Belarus as the only European countries outside the Human Rights convention & attacking the Civil Service for upholding the rule of law
If UK News Shows won’t call this boll**** out I WILL
Such a beautiful piece. In tears #RolandRatzenberger 🇦🇹 @brabsracer

Dave and I were so chuffed to be nominated once again for the Fortnum & Mason Food Personality of the Year Award for the 4th year running. Dave was so proud of this award, particularly because it’s voted for by our loyal followers and fans, the people who matter most to us.
It’s really strange for us all not to have Dave around but for now, we will keep posting on the Hairy Bikers socials to keep in touch with all those people who have been so kind over many years and particularly in recent weeks.
We’ll also keep you updated on the events and projects which will live on and I look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at some of the Summer festivals this year.

Voting closes at 12 Noon, 29th March 2024.
