“I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” ― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

Feeling rather #proud of myself and all the #TeamRMAT Peaky Climbers today! Honestly couldn’t have done it without @MissBinnsPE and her other half being the BEST cheerleaders! Thank you to the @RodillianMAT for organising, and to @BBGAcademy for the support! 💙💚💙⛰️⛰️⛰️

"I’ve never fell off a big chimney. You only fall off one of them once." #OnThisDay 1979: Extraordinary steeplejack Fred Dibnah was introduced to the nation.

Fred Dibnah: Steeplejack, 1979

Steeplejack Fred Dibnah single-handedly demolishes a massive chimney stack, brick by brick, from the top down.

If you see this tweet QT with the most recent photo of your pet. No cheating. (One of each...and no Brucies were harmed in the making of these photos)

This was just an awe-inspiring finish to watch. I am a dilettante park runner, and have so, so little experience in running beyond the whole ‘trying to keep me sane’ vibe - and this so was flipping amazing that I called my daughter in to watch.
