Out today! Travelogue from Stornoway to South Wales via Scarborough, Sunderland and some places that don't begin with 's'. Social history from murals to Marx via the banning of leaping on Sundays. Guaranteed to leave the Last of the Summer Wine theme tune as your earworm.
Looking for a summer read? What could whisper 'poolside' more than a gentle meander through some days of rest? Never mind the cocktails and lovely icy lagers, you'll be pining for gravy.

Jonny Howson gave his all for Middlesbrough Football Club... both on and off the pitch ❤️ #Boro | #UTB | #BBCFootball
Booooo. A hero in an age of none, as the Clash put it. A throwback to when players stuck around long enough to grow a deep, meaningful connection with supporters. And just lovely, magic feet.
We can confirm Jonny Howson has departed the club following the expiry of his contract. Jonny provided MFC with wonderful service, commitment and dedication throughout his eight years at the club, and we wish him all the very best for the future.

🚨Discount Bovril latest: they're flying out. Must be the barbecue hit of the summer.
Bovril sale of the century at the Morrison's Daily near me. I can only think an enthusiastic new employee over-ordered after a particularly enjoyable half-time last season. "Trust me, it's gonna be the new Nescafé Azera."
