After missing it when it was aired as Euros were on, have finally finished Tattooist of Auschwitz - powerful and brilliant tv. As someone whose visited there it captures everything about it

William the Conqueror - I have Northern heritage, my French isn’t great and I’m not too keen on religion - not sure he’d be too keen on me!

With little one it was Duxford - wonderful museum. Got to see Spitfires fly and some wonderful exhibits. Even if little one’s favourite bit was the (admittedly amazing) play area

Deffo a hard one to choose - so many!! I’m going to cheat and choose 2 one for me and one with my daughter! For me it was Zadar old town in Croatia - Roman ruins, Venetian architecture, and damage from Balkan civil war / Homeland war all interspersed

I know the feeling. At 43 regularly the oldest player in the side. Also one of our y11s from 2 years ago is now stepping ip to our team - not sure I like him calling me β€˜Gareth’ instead of sir

This book is simply wonderful!!! My Dad (ex-soldier) gave it to me to read and I devoured it in days! Another similar read is β€˜Junior Officers Reading Club’ by Patrick Hennessey

Such a hard choice, changes often but at mo:

1) wonderwall (will always be 1)
2) rockin’ chair
3) live forever
4) don’t go away
5) don’t look back in anger
