I have celebrated #DollyParton day in the best way possible. Standing up for myself, listening to her music, adding extra shifts to my volunteer work. She will always be an icon 😍

It’s cool to like Dolly Parton. And I am so glad that so many of us did. But it’s cooler to act like Dolly Parton. I hope more of us will. We can all do better.

So very sad tonight. @DollyParton truly is an icon and will remain so forever. Her music and legacy will remain in our ❤️ My DD misheard the lyrics to 9 to 5 as a child, and always sang 'its enough to drive you crazy and doolally' instead of if you let it. We still sing that now!

What strikes me the most is that members of Cleveland Police Family liason support officers will be expected, and are no doubt doing an incredible job of supporting these kids families, yet grieving the unnecessary loss of their colleagues. #supportourpolice
People blaming Tiktok for the A66 crash in Middlesbrough who still believe its some kind of tragic accident need to wake up Cole Worthy, Jakub Hewitt, Makai Saddington, Michael Ray and Theo Rae were not just some random kids following a tiktok trend They were part of a group of scuffy ***** that make life miserable for the good people of our town Torturing old people, robbing, hitting people as they pass on their bikes, throwing stones at random people, Vandalism. I could go on all day Their families and friends are holding balloon releases and vigils. They genuinely believe they are the victims here. "Good lads" "Wouldnt hurt a soul" Maybe you should have given a f*ck about them when they were alive and they wouldnt have turned into complete and utter scumbags Now two police officers have been murdered. Call this what it is No shame, no common sense, no morals, no respect for others, no social awareness (they never have it) See it all the time here The real people of Middlesbrough hate you with a passion

Robert Bush: Sentence for Legacy funeral boss 'never enough' bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cre4… This is a despicable sentence. It isnt even 1 year for each victim. I am shocked at the leninecy. The British Justice system is a joke and it only leads to more suffering for the families. 😪

This is incredulous. Our beloved pets are family. To think they were/are treated so badly. I want to say inhumane treatment but what is the animal equivalent? Inanimale? No matter, this is beyond horrendous and needs immediate action to be taken.
What happened to a dignified end for people’s beloved pets? 😡😥 Herefordshire Council has confirmed that an investigation is ongoing after reports were made about Animal Funeral Services, based at Litfield House Farm in Kington, after photos emerged that appeared to show an unlocked van filled with bags full of animal corpses, and a pile of ashes and bones on the site. A spokesperson for Herefordshire Council said they are aware of concerns that have been raised and its animal health team is making enquiries to establish the circumstances.

I don’t cross post from FB very often, but this horror story needs to be heard and made public. If you’ve ever had a beloved pet cremated or care about the dignity of animals then please start screaming about it. This pet crematorium is local to me. facebook.com/share/r/1CLhFkV…

Today's news has made me very sad. What a sad reflection on our society today that people feel it is ok to publicly deride someone who has been murdered. Where has the compassion and respect gone from society? If you don't agree in views, fine. But show some humanity.

Biggest point of ‘I Swear’ inspired by John Davidson, that goes viral was this scene, for a reason. It's trying to normalize tourettes and explain to people that they can't control it. Forcing a person who has tourettes to apologize for every single thing is hell, shame on you.
Does Tourette’s make you unable to apologize tho?

I've always said films are nothing without a magnificent soundtrack... think John Williams and ET.. incredible. This is how I feel about the #WinterOlympics2026 @Tim_Warwood and @snowedleigh you are awesome. I wish I had the superlatives that you do to describe your performance.
"OHHH WE'RE HALF-WAY THERE!" 🎤🎶 Day 12 delirium in the snowboarding commentary box as Ed Leigh and Tim Warwood break out a brilliant rendition of Bon Jovi 😆

What a wonderful moment. 😍 Someone at the Palace has a great sense of humour... the playing of 'Golden' whilst Sir David was knighted.... genius! Congratulations Sir David. Well deserved.

Rest in peace, Patricia Routledge 🙏🏻 In memory of her, I encourage everyone to read these words of hers from February last year. Whether young or old, you're bound to get something out of it. ***** "I’ll be turning 95 this coming Monday. In my younger years, I was often filled with worry — worry that I wasn’t quite good enough, that no one would cast me again, that I wouldn’t live up to my mother’s hopes. But these days begin in peace, and end in gratitude. My life didn’t quite take shape until my forties. I had worked steadily — on provincial stages, in radio plays, in West End productions — but I often felt adrift, as though I was searching for a home within myself that I hadn’t quite found. At 50, I accepted a television role that many would later associate me with — Hyacinth Bucket, of Keeping Up Appearances. I thought it would be a small part in a little series. I never imagined that it would take me into people’s living rooms and hearts around the world. And truthfully, that role taught me to accept my own quirks. It healed something in me. At 60, I began learning Italian — not for work, but so I could sing opera in its native language. I also learned how to live alone without feeling lonely. I read poetry aloud each evening, not to perfect my diction, but to quiet my soul. At 70, I returned to the Shakespearean stage — something I once believed I had aged out of. But this time, I had nothing to prove. I stood on those boards with stillness, and audiences felt that. I was no longer performing. I was simply being. At 80, I took up watercolour painting. I painted flowers from my garden, old hats from my youth, and faces I remembered from the London Underground. Each painting was a quiet memory made visible. Now, at 95, I write letters by hand. I’m learning to bake rye bread. I still breathe deeply every morning. I still adore laughter — though I no longer try to make anyone laugh. I love the quiet more than ever. I’m writing this to tell you something simple: Growing older is not the closing act. It can be the most exquisite chapter — if you let yourself bloom again. Let these years ahead be your TREASURE YEARS. You don’t need to be famous. You don’t need to be flawless. You only need to show up — fully — for the life that is still yours. With love and gentleness, Patricia Routledge ***** Once more, rest in peace. 🤍

Replying to @Keir_Starmer
@Keir_Starmer You talk of "peaceful protest" as if the crowd in Whitehall was defined by the handful who lashed out. Hundreds of thousands marched behind their own flag - families, pensioners, workers - and you smear them all as thugs. Violence is wrong. Nobody serious disputes that. But you twist the acts of a few into a moral cudgel to delegitimise the many. That isn't leadership. It's evasion. You speak of people "feeling intimidated because of their background or the colour of their skin." Yet it is not Jewish children hounded off buses that concern you. It is not young girls preyed upon by imported grooming gangs. It is not women threatened by men from cultures that see them as chattel. Those victims vanish from your concern. What you mean by "intimidation" is simply the sight of your own countrymen standing up for themselves. And then your sleight of hand: you claim the Union Jack "represents our diverse country." No. The flag does not represent whatever passing ideology a Prime Minister chooses to drape across it. It represents Britain - its history, its duty, its people. To redefine it as a corporate logo for "diversity and respect" is to strip it of meaning. You say you will never surrender the flag. But you already have - not to Tommy Robinson, not to rallies in Whitehall, but to the very forces that are dismantling the nation beneath it. That is the truth across the West. In Britain, in America, in Europe, the Left has hollowed out symbols, institutions, and traditions, then handed them over to supranational dogmas and imported loyalties. The flag is reduced to a backdrop for speeches about "tolerance." The police are reduced to political enforcers, indulgent with pro-Palestine mobs yet heavy-handed with patriots. The language of "diversity" becomes a mask for mass immigration that no public ever consented to. You want to claim the mantle of order, but you preside over disorder. You want to pose as a defender of the flag, but you recast it as a brand for the very policies that betray the people it belongs to. That is why the streets filled. Not because of violence. Not because of extremism. But because the nation knows it has been sold off - piece by piece, principle by principle. So don't lecture Britain about "never surrendering the flag." You and your kind surrendered it long ago. The question now is not whether people will reclaim it, but when - and whether they can do so peacefully, with discipline, before the anger you have sown breaks the country apart. "The flag does not represent whatever passing ideology a Prime Minister chooses to drape across it. It represents Britain - its history, its duty, its people."
