So good to see some coverage of #Dunkirk85 as it had been distinctly lacking, with the anniversary almost creeping up on people. We’ll be there as a family next week, remembering my Great-Grandad who thankfully made it home in 1940 despite one or two close calls.
The Little Ships are on their way! Leaving London this morning and heading to Ramsgate - before next week's Channel crossing to Dunkirk 🇫🇷 - for the 85th anniversary of Operation Dynamo 🇬🇧. (photo: thanks to Mick Gentry ADLS on "Wanda") #Dunkirk85 🙏🏻 ⚓️
Honestly the best form of cricket going. Another cracking test match in what has been a great series so far. #ENGvsIND
GET IN! 🦁 Final day Test match wins ❤️ What an incredible contest! 💪 We move into a 2-1 series lead 👏
England vs India day 3 at Edgbaston with the amigos @scott_smith9 @MickeyBeardmore @nickhorner 💯 for Jamie Smith and Harry Brook. Riveting stuff ☀️
RIP Diogo Jota. Such sad news. A player who was very much part of the rebirth of @Wolves 🧡🖤 🕊️
⚫ Muere el futbolista del Liverpool Diogo Jota en un accidente de tráfico en la provincia de Zamora 😢 El siniestro se produjo en el kilómetro 65 de la A-52, a la altura del término municipal de Palacios de Sanabria.
Inspired by @MaxDutton2, here’s my 60 second (ish) explainer on a historic location within @theroyalparks’s Bushy Park which played a big role in #DDay. #DDay81
6 June, 81 years since D-Day. I’ve been fortunate to be in Normandy to mark this momentous day in history in 2009, 2014, 2019 and 2024. Here are four pictures taken on 6 June during those years. #DDay81
The Formidable Five. Normandy Veterans Ken Hay, Richard Aldred, Henry Rice, Jim Grant, John Dennett at Colleville-sur-Mer. Today we host the Veterans for the 81st anniversary of D-Day. #DDay81 📷 PA / Gareth Fuller
Another awful bit of business by Wolves, any other club demands £50m+ for a player like RAN at this stage in his career. Instead the decision makers think that £25m, once the fee is paid to his previous club, is acceptable. Just add this to the long list of bad deals. #WWFC
Manchester City are close to agreeing a £35m fee with #Wolves for Rayan Ait-Nouri. Negotiations are not fully completed yet but transfer will happen. Deal likely to include add-ons. More to follow @TeleFootball #mcfc
85 years ago my Great Grandad Evans made it away from Dunkirk, just two days before the evacuation came to an end. We have this great photo in the family archives showing the men of the 8th Anti-Tank Battery who fought in Belgium and France in 1939/40. #Dunkirk85
No trip to Dunkirk would be complete with a visit to the @CWGC’s Dunkirk Town Cemetery. Gunner Joseph Pass was part of my Great-Grandad’s battery, and almost made it back home. I always make sure to go and say hello. Lest We Forget what happened here 85 years ago. #Dunkirk85
I always get a little lump in my throat thinking about the Dunkirk Little Ships. 85 years ago ordinary people answered the call to rescue British and French armed forces from the beaches and town of Dunkirk. Look forward to seeing the boats at the weekend 🫡 #Dunkirk85

As I said. Defensively really poor tonight. Two losses from two visits to Selhurst Park. Proper football ground though. #WWFC
Off to Crystal Palace. Home team just won the FA Cup. Palace legends last game at home. Wolves on a losing streak (after an amazing run) and giving squad players a game. Fully expecting a home win 😅 #WWFC

As we mark #VEDay80, why not come along to a special celebration taking place in Hednesford today 🇬🇧 Super proud of my mom who has once again been a leading light in making sure this #VEDay event goes ahead 👏🏻 Well done as well to all the Hednesford community groups involved.
