Latest from me: a story sill overlooked. When ministers talk of preventive health policy, they should be reminded of this theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Did you know that at the #Paralympics this year, athletes with a #LearningDisability will only be able to compete for a tiny number of the medals that are up for grabs? 🏅
Just 4% of medals that will be won at #Tokyo2020 will be in their reach. 😧 (1/5)
ALT Athletes with a learning disability are only able to compete for 4% of gold medal chances in this year's Tokyo Paralympics.

💬 There needs to be more investment than ever, to secure the next generation
#TeamGB’s Olympic heroes @adam_peaty and @lukegreenbank97 have called for increased funding to ensure swimming clubs and facilities are financially viable so more people can take up the sport ⬇️

Driver in #wycombe who sat for 2 changes of lights on the A40 Abbey Barn Jnc with no cars coming waiting for the additional filter light to come on. It wont unless you move into the box. Please TAKE YOUR HEADPHONES OFF. You would hear the rest of us getting annoyed.

Last week we sat down for a meal to celibrate the Architecture degree achieved by number 1 daughter. We talked lots about the journey, the incredible long hours and hard work that went into the five year course.
When reflecting the person noted as being the biggest influence on that success was not a parent or teacher but her swimming coach, why? Because he showed her if she believed in herself and worked hard she could achieve her goals.
So thank you to @KevBrooksCoach for being such a great coach As we end another season remember we wont all be like @adam_peaty but the possitive lessons we can learn through the sport and from our coaches shape the rest of our lives.
What better way to recover from spending all weekend at a swimming competition than a sunny lunchtime swim @WycombeRyeLido suddenly I like swimming again.
