Nimes, France, so impressed with the public spaces and lovely use of water to create calm and cool areas, this reminded me of what we’re missing, Nottingham people will understand!

Just watched two of Nottingham’s greatest citizens, Torvill & Dean, in their Last Dance, very emotional. A wonderful evening at the Motorpoint Arena

Just back from interrail trip through 9 countries to Croatia, most in the EU. The level of investment evident is huge and the quality of design is stunning, and not just in the big cities. We are lagging behind

Had some great times working with hard working and committed Officers at Nottingham City Council. Meetings with the Parks team were memorably positive (particularly compared with the other mad stuff we were dealing with). This is my retirement gift from them, looking fab today, lovely reminder

This lovely wild flower, Common Yellow Wood Sorrel, has taken over the cracks in our patio and gives me much joy, with its tiny yellow flowers beaming up at me while I’m having a cuppa

Been a good day, interesting chat over a cuppa with @cllrjhayes.bsky.social, a stroll through the magnificent Green Heart, then listening to Yr1 & 2 pupils at Southwold Primary talking about the Great Fire of London - do you enjoy history? “I love it”!

Glad to be at Green Hustle today in Nottingham’s Old Market Square. We were talking about @nottsca.bsky.social and our Youth Panel encouraging young people to get involved and shape the agenda for the future

NHS Bowel Cancer testing time. The instructions always make me smile “we only need a little poo to test - please do not add extra!” 😄

I like this visual representation of our domestic energy consumption. Demonstrates both the impact of rising temperatures and the benefits of solar PV. It doesn’t include feed-in to the grid, some of which we get paid for by FIT

Been reflecting today on the dire Labour leadership of Remain. Corbyn nationally & Collins in Nottingham disengaged. Collins said he wasn’t knocking on any doors, a few of us soldiered on. With decent leaders we could have won & avoided the Brexit disaster & letting the far right out of the box

Lovely to see the refurbished Paddling Pool at Victoria Embankment, Nottingham re-opened by the new Sheriff of Nottingham, Cllr Zafran Khan, today. Well done to the Parks team. Can’t wait to take my granddaughters!

I spent £400 on a little greenhouse 5 years ago. It’s one of my best buys ever. It’s crammed full of potential tasty treats - tomatoes, Chilis, cucumbers, strawberries, basil. It has pulled me out of the doldrums! #growyourown
