Spotted at Salisbury rail station. Who’s going to count the cost of not tackling climate change? Your children. And my grandchildren. #NetZero

After two previous failed attempts (kids with tantrums, car break down) we finally saw the Bayeux Tapestry today. It was worth the wait

Beautiful spring day for #parkrun at #Clapham Common. Only marred by going face down over a tree root. Thanks to the kind marshals & other runners who picked me up. What a great community. PS. I still finished in reasonable time

It’s been a while since I’ve been involved with WHO but came across these name badges today. Reminder that Trump withdrawing is absolute folly while the world faces emerging global health emergencies.

Choose twenty books that have stayed with you or influenced you. One book per day for twenty days, in no particular order. No explanation, no reviews, just covers.
