The media isn’t mentioning that the pound is now higher than before the mini budget. The UK is the largest place for investment from the USA, and the sun will always come up in the morning. Whatever your politics, it’s time to talk our country up. We’re luckier than many realise.

Phoned my energy supplier today to query our £2k bill. It transpired that there’d been a computer glitch & our account was a few hundred quid in credit. Others must also surely be affected. Moral of the story? If you pay by monthly direct debit, phone them & query your balance.

The gas pipeline crisis again sends prices soaring. As I’ve already said, domestic energy security is a serious issue that needs to be a fully costed part of future party manifestos. I genuinely believe that the public will come to treat this as important an issue as the NHS.

Nice to have a balanced discussion about my thoughts on Kier Starmer’s conference speech with @Elliottjwebb on @bbchw earlier this morning.

Forgetting about ’Remember you’re a Womble’ what were the first single and album that you ever bought? Me:

Album: Setting Sons, The Jam

Lovely morning at 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.

Why the media silence on the week long uprising in Iran? Reports of unarmed demonstrators being massacred. This is surely the best chance of restoring some degree of stability in the Middle East for many years. Our politicians also say nothing. They’ll be judged for their silence

The monarchy has its detractors, (far less than the quiet majority), but there is no better advert for the UK. And before anyone moans about the cost, just remember that outside of sport, no advertising agency could ever hope to produce a global event, watched by 5.1bn people.

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

So many emotions have gone through my mind on this monumental day. Sorrow, pride and reflection, to name but a few. Her Majesty’s example of public service and duty should be held as an example to us all. Thank you Ma’am. Rest in peace. God save the King.

I’ve no idea who the singer/guitarist, who performed at ‘The Botanist’ in Worcester last night was, but he was excellent. Such a talent.

I feel so sorry for the people who queued for so long for their personal moment of reflection, when paying their respects to Her Majesty, only to have it completely ruined. That will sadly be their memory of such a solemn occasion.

An immense privilege to handle a truly historical medal. This is the 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

With all the tanks, vehicles and military equipment captured during the retreat, it looks as though, ironically, Russia has become largest arms exporter to Ukraine.

Pleased to have got back from Northern Ireland in time to have been able to attend this afternoon’s proclamation of King Charles III at Guildhall. As to be expected, the good people of ‘the faithful city’ did His Majesty proud.

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.
