Where shall we #travel today?

Without a doubt the most moving and thought provoking thing we have seen on this trip. The women's #gulag at #Alzhir, near #Astana, #Kazakhstan.

New blog from our #CentralAsia trip:

#Astana, #Kazakhstan was an interesting place to visit, but lacked a bit of soul as it's a brand new city!

It seems that #InleLake in #Myanmar #Burma has been very badly hit by the #earthquake. Thoughts and prayers are with everyone in this stunningly beautiful location.

Thoughts go out to those suffering in #Mandalay, #Myanmar, #Burma. Such a lovely place. Seven years since I was there. #prayformyanmar Only time will tell how bad the devastation from the #earthquake is. #bhafc

Thoughts with all those in #Myanmar #Burma today. #Mandalay is beautiful. Very fond memories of my visit. Time will tell how much devastation the #earthquake has left behind.

Sad, sad news today, and especially for those like myself in the international aviation community. The air traffic control tower is reported to have collapsed with the loss of all those working inside at the time. #RIP #prayforMyanmar

Never been to #Cottbus in eastern #Germany? Great #architecture, cool #aviation museum, industrial #heritage and a weird #library! Also a great #football team making their way back up the league!

Want to join #SeagullsOverSpain in #Torrevieja to watch the FA Cup game against #Forest then (hopefully) celebrate with a #curry afterwards? Please let me know as we need numbers for tables. #bhafc @officialbha.bsky.social

It's not easy going to #Myanmar #Burma today, but on our trip a few years ago we went to the capital, #Naypyidaw, and visited their amazing #Military #Museum. They even had a #spitfire.

As I get myself ready to fly to #Manchester tomorrow, thought I'd share this week's #SeagullsOverSpain cartoon. If you see me around with the Spanish flag, please say hola!!

I'm back from #GranCanaria, #Spain, but what memories we made! #PuertodelasNieves in the North West corner was incredible. One night only but wish we'd stayed for more! Fresh fish in the restaurants - top notch!

I'm back from #GranCanaria, #Spain, but what memories we made! The hike up to #RoqueNublo in the #clouds was amazing and the sun came out for our descent. Make sure you book your slot though!!

I'm usually more #offthebeatentrack but the #dunes of #Maspalomas on #GranCanaria, #Spain, were well worth putting up with a few tourists for! Quite easy to get away from them, except for by the #sea.

The magic of the #FACup returns for the #Albion on Sunday. Can #bhafc @officialbha.bsky.social #Brighton keep their dreams alive against #Newcastle? We sincerely hope so!

Fancy a bit of cherry picking? Hope #bhafc @officialbha.bsky.social are up to the task again. I'll be in Maspalomas, Gran Canaria, for the game if anyone happens to be on holiday in the area.

At the moment I'm in #LasPalmas, #GranCanaria, #Spain where I have witnessed the #powerofthesea in all its majestic beauty. I'm not a #surfer but it's not hard to see why they love it here.

No #SeagullsOverSpain meet-up this weekend as I'm in Cambridge for work! Doesn't stop me producing another #cartoon though.

Come on you super #Seagulls! Let's bounce back quickly. The magic of the #FACup eh?!

Watching The Chase Side by side, the teacups steam,We settle in, the perfect team.The clock strikes five, the questions fly,Another afternoon drifts by. Fingers poised, our guesses shared,Disagreements seldom spared.โ€ฆ

Some #AIpoetry to give you a #laugh this afternoon. Any fans of #TVQuizShow #TheChase out there?!
