Thank you for all the messages here after tonight’s @BBCNWT. I’d normally try to reply to them all, but there are so many. Thank you for your kindness. My thoughts are with all those families directly affected and the brave first responders in Southport today. So sad.

The Paterson Building at The Christie is one of the world's leading cancer research centres. 700 experts now call the building home. Ahead of the official opening on Wednesday, take a look at how we rebuilt it following a fire that destroyed the previous facility in 2017. 👇

My son & I went to get döner. He ordered his meal in German, and the employee politely asked questions in German about sauces, salad vs. fries, & drinks. My son answered every question. Afterwards, the man helping us smiled SO kindly & said, in English, “You did a great job.”💗

Replying to @TheCoopLive
@TheCoopLive A restricted view is not what we paid for! As a friend quite succinctly said- I'd be wanting my money back for that (that not even restricted view, it's more every so slight view of stage, probably see more from the car park).

Fortunately, the very lovely staff at the arena were very helpful and understanding and ensured we had better seats, once we'd shown them our less than perfect view!

📅 ON THIS DAY It's a whopping 31 years since much-loved funny man Les Dawson died, in 1993. A Fylde Coast resident for many years he's remembered in the seafront gardens of #StAnnes. 👀Take a look👉bit.ly/pea-hap-st-a

Where has the time gone. Just over a week since #GreatManchesterRun @Great_Run and what an atmosphere there was that day. No crowds today though to cheer me on, but keeping the motivation going with my 10k finishers tee & proud of it too. Boy did I earn it!
