Reading @northern_earth on a surprisingly sun-drenched beach at Mablethorpe.

Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow: rollingstone.com/politics/news/…

@george_ogier hooray!

@george_ogier @brighty hooray! (Cricket tonight, weather permitting?)

@turpit righto. I’d probably quite like the Colossus of Rhodes

@george_ogier aweso- er, I mean, splendid!

@turpit I’ve yet to find anything I’d willingly describe as ‘aweseome’
