I'm a 19th Century, Regency square in Cheltenham. Although I say so myself, I'm rather lovely, so please look after me. Currently dormant.

Found under a tree in Clarence Square. Rather a good & robust bit of kit. Do any of you know if anyone has had one pinched recently?
Nice of @StarbucksUK to leave the place looking a mess. Perhaps someone could come back and sort it?
@CleanGreenChelt @CheltenhamBC I'm sure you'll monitor and take any necessary action.
Having collected about 10 kilos of litter I was a bit fed up. Then my favourite cat Maggie cheered me up simply by her presence. #maggietheclarencesquarecat
I know @bertie_lakeland would try to chase her, but please give her a retweet!

Many former tennis players are such superb analysts, EG McEnroe, BJK and Henman. But listening to the wonderful Andre Agassi is almost as enjoyable as watching the incomparable, extraordinary Carlos Alcaraz.
Vamos Carlos!
Thank you @BBCSport

Good morning @CheltenhamBC & @CleanGreenChelt
The excellent Ubico team have cleared up. But they shouldn't have to be picking up sandwich boxes from all over the place. Please do try to take action as this behaviour drags Cheltenham down. Thank you.
I don't know whether this is from Loakes, The Workplace, Bridgman or someone else. But whoever puts food waste in their commercial waste bags is selfish and stupid. The gulls are all over it. @CheltenhamBC @CleanGreenChelt please pursue.

Thank you to Ubico et al for the cleansing in Clarence Square today. Despite some people ignoring the signs, no parking cones, WhatsApp messages & notes on windscreens, it looks a lot better. Perhaps they'll sweep up when they move their cars.....I won't hold my breath.
Solstice sunrise, appropriately enough on the lovely Midsummer Hill. One for you @DaveThroup
The trolley has gone. Thank you @Tesco and @Trolleywise. Thank you to @CheltenhamBC whilst I'm at it. The Square is looking lovely. Despite the dog mess, esp from the honey labrador that is permitted by an errant owner to poo with impunity.
@Trolleywise and @Tesco
Could someone please collect this trolley? What 3 words location is supporter keys potato. Thank you.

We’ve now had a closer look at the resurfacing on The Strand and spoken to businesses and residents. It’s of appalling quality. We will check that it hasn’t been signed off and paid for by @GlosCC. If this were your drive, you’d refuse to pay for the shoddy workmanship.
The bizarrely named 'abrdn', AKA Standard Life, are in the news. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cz9n…
Perhaps they'd like to restore confidence by actually doing something about this lovely listed building? As absent landlords they are one of the worst. Just a line on a spreadsheet....
Thank you @CheltenhamBC and Ubico for the cleansing & general tidying in Clarence Square today. Unfortunately as you know (evidence attached)not everyone could be bothered to move their cars, but I'll try and clear the leaves once they do.
Sometimes I despair. What effort did it take to insert these into the tree rather than a bin? I won't stop picking litter. Cheltenham deserves it, even if many morons lucky enough to live here don't. Today's collection also displayed. @CleanGreenChelt @KeepBritainTidy
Having just seen the brilliant @AlexHorne & the @hornesection at the splendid @Bristol_Beacon, it seems opportune to reshare this uncannily familiar face.

Have you got a sideline in Spanish wine production? I have to say there is a striking resemblance. And a remarkably appropriate name.
It's 100% true that nothing other than the obvious should be flushed away. It's also true that wet wipes are a terrible thing. But the biggest problem is shareholders being paid dividends instead of profits being invested into our crumbling sewers. @Feargal_Sharkey

Swapping Gotham City for a trip down one of our sewers. But this DC doll is rather PC, and not usually what causes problems. The biggest causes of blockages? Wet wipes.
#BlockagesAreNoJoker #STBeABinnerNotABlocker
Agreed it could have been worse, but that's scant consolation for the many homes and businesses flooded via roofs, from the street &, worst of all, from backed up sewers. Did the culverted Chelt also contribute via dodgy/unconventional connections?. #cheltenham #floods
Blimey. I've seen flooded properties in Pittville & Fairview this evening and people experiencing really stressful situations. Thank you for sharing - people need to realise that this isn't normal, our climate is changing.
@DaveThroup - Cheltenham calling!
An important report from @HistoricEngland outlining the value of the heritage sector to the economy (although a credit for Broadway Tower would have been nice).
The heritage sector is an integral part of England's national economy.
We commission a detailed economic study each year to capture the heritage sector's economic footprint, and the results for this year are now available.

Plumbing spares - much of them new - have been dumped in Clarence Square. It's been safely removed and stored having, I suspect, been stolen and dumped here. It can be reunited with the owner if they make contact.
@cheltpoli
Brilliant. I'm sure @RobbieStamp42 will love this.
