Tonight, Cardiff Castle will light up green to mark Dwarfism Awareness Day. 💚 The illumination celebrates diversity and helps raise awareness and understanding of dwarfism. orlo.uk/S4Qel

A quick coffee in Andover this morning, where the choice of cupcakes was epic! And yes, I cracked and treated myself!

A fantastic day out with friends @PHDockyard, today. The Mary Rose was brilliant, HMS Victory undergoing a huge amount of refurbishment/preservation and I’m not sure I want a ships biscuit! We ran out of time to visit HMS Warrior, but we’ll be back!

Happy Trafalgar Day! In the immortal words “England expects every man to do his duty”, I felt it my duty to have a glass of rum…

An unexpected visitor in my garden this morning. I think it’s the second time a heron has dropped in. Last time the ducks made one hell of a racket!

An excellent Friday night at the Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry Officers Dinner, (even broke out my Prince of Wales tartan trews!). I sense that tomorrow might be a struggle…

Someone think of the wine!!
Forget about oil. There are only a small handful of tankers in the world that transport wine, and WINE TRADER (8808707) can carry 6.32 million liters, which is 8.4 million bottles.

A trip to the big smoke today for the Cavalry Lunch Club (CLC) - great food, lovely people and a fascinating talk. And I got my CLC tie! Love the colours!

Utterly abhorrent stuff. How far we’ve fallen…
Six pro-Pals were arrested today for criminal damage after the Battle of Britain memorial was attacked. Wreaths lie broken and smashed at the feet of the monument dedicated to those brave warriors who defended us against the Nazis. Utterly shameful.
