I’m doubting whether I got on the correct boat - I’ve just arrived in, what I hope is Dublin Port, to find that it’s not raining and the sun is out! 🇨🇮🇬🇧

Last night I was pleased to give a talk at @OMRS17995839 Cotswold Branch on ‘Dawkita 1897, the West African Rorke’s Drift’. The amazing story of 43 Gold Coast (Ghana) Constabulary men’s four day siege & 40 mile night time retreat after fighting 7,000 of Samory’s slave soldiers

Fantastic to see the @FR_Babs tonight. One of my favourite players ever to have worn the @CrayValleyPM strip. I’m still talking about ‘that FA Cup goal’ he scored a few years ago, to anyone who’ll listen!

A fantastic organisation. I was delighted and privileged to host an exhibition of theirs in the European Parliament, back in the day. They work they so hard raising awareness of #Scleroderma.
RT @Scleroframed: Today, we have put up our exhibition on the green wall @Zuyderland hospital. There were many visitors all day who were interested in our expo ‘Scleroderma Framed’. Also want to meet us? We are there again on Wednesday and …

A superb story for #BlackHistoryMonth. Laurie Nurse, originally from British Guyana, was awarded an immediate Military Medal for Bravery in the Field at Anzio in June 1944. Commissioned as an officer, he left the army in 1962 and died in Birmingham in 1984

Lovely to meet up with Twitter friend @HelloFromMarcus, whose tweets always make me smile. Our increasingly bland world desperately needs more colourful people like him - And I received a lovely video message from his daughter thanking me for the fencing mask and foil. En guarde!

Lovely to catch up with a former colleague and a very dear friend.

Having handled this, I have to say that it is truly magnificent. The skill and craftsmanship is something truly to behold. #VictoriaCross #Gallipoli #orders #medals #militaria #decorations #auction

Thought it would be nice to buy one of the new coins with the king’s effigy from the @RoyalMintUK. Seems I’m not the only person to have the same idea.

Whatever your politics, this has to be one of the most embarrassing Faux Pas’ of modern time. Let it be a lesson to everyone that, when you are on the attack, never lose sight of the finer details.

Does this sound familiar Mr. Putin? 84 years ago today. History will be your judge.
RT @MilHistNow: On this day in 1938, Hitler annexes Czechoslovakia's Sudetenland. "It is the last territorial claim which I have to make in Europe," the Nazi leader assures the world.

Lovely morning at #ColumbiaRoad Flower Market. My family traded for three generations down East Lane, (me over 25 years), so I think I’m qualified to say that it’s a proper & traditional London Street Market.

Lovely to meet up with one of @CWGC’s finest, @WW1_Education, at the OMRS convention in London. Finally meeting in person, having spend much time on the phone and by email, discussing the service, sacrifice and remembrance of native African casualties from the Great War.

I’m off to bed at the end of a most momentous day. Looking down on a beautifully lit @WorcCathedral. #Worcester. ‘The faithful city’. Goodnight all. God save the King.

An immense privilege to handle a truly historical medal. This is the #VictoriaCross awarded to a civilian, Thomas Henry Kavanagh, for his valour during the Siege of Luckow on 8th November 1857. It sold today in our rooms for a world record price of £930,000. @NoonansAuctions

Just arriving into Birkenhead on the overnight ferry and I happened to look out of my cabin window just as we pass the iconic Liver Building, with the sunrise behind her.
