Forever thankful that friends and colleagues were all safe on that terrible day nine years ago today. Thinking of the 32 people who lost their lives, their families, and all those injured in the bombing attacks on Brussels Airport and Maelbeek Metro station, my local stop at the time 🖤💛❤️

Super-excited at the prospect of the men’s Tour de France 🇫🇷 coming to Wales in 2027 🏴 I was lucky enough to see Greg LeMond win his third @letour on the Champs Élysées in 1990 🏆 It’s going to be even more special welcoming the race to Wales in two years’ time 💛 #cycling

Enjoyed visiting some of Den Haag’s museums and galleries today. In particular the Gevangenpoort where visitors are directed around by cat silhouettes 🥰
