Canal path proper closed between Cadman Street and Bacon Lane , due to tow path collapse. Can't see that being a quick fix, it's had fencing up for months, but people kept throwing it in the canal and going through. There's is a diversion in place, it's just not very nice #Sheffield

Yesterday Kemi Badenoch was on BBC Breakfast,she was so anxious to score points on Labour, she parroted Trump by accusing the RAF of 'just hanging around' in the Middle East. Must be lovely for the air and ground crew , support staff and families in a war zone to hear they are slacking on the job.

Walking along the Bridle Stile today, first mentioned in 1299. Probably considerably older, this pack horse trail carried good into the small town of Sheffield. Estimated population around 1500-2000 at the time. This section climbs out of Mosborough towards High Lane then onto Gleadless #Sheffield

I've just re-watched the Yellowstone origin story 1883. What a fantastic, powerful and emotional piece of TV gold it is. The final episode is absolutely heart wrenching. Superb performances, stunning photography and a great story 🙌
