PLEASE BE AWARE that there has been a large landslip at #Seatown, Dorset overnight. @DorsetCouncilUK are aware. Be cautious and do not put yourself at risk. If you are in these areas, stay away from cliff edges and do not sit at the base of cliffs. 📸 @JLP_Dorset

Possibly the best encounter I’ve seen with King Charles as part of today’s royal visit to #Poundbury 🧖🏼‍♀️🧖🏼‍♂️
Replying to @JournoMikeT
Quite an encounter - Tess and James have a quick chat with the King on a spa day! @DorsetLive_

We often talk about ‘community spirit’ on @BBCRadioSolent. But the community spirit demonstrated by this group of people is amongst the strongest I’ve seen in my (almost) ten years of BBC local radio. And the stories I encountered were not what I was expecting… 👇🏻
Portland residents are trying to raise £100,000 to save a much-loved community centre 💷➡️ bbc.in/3RtcG1z

If you’re struggling, these three minutes demonstrate there can be light in the darkness…👇🏻 Thank you to the inspirational Brandon Waine for sharing his story on @BBCRadioSolent this morning. #mentalhealthmatters #oknottobeok bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0dz7s…

Beautiful and so fitting.

Waking up for work at 4:05am and seeing the queue is still nearly five miles long… Wow. #QueuefortheQueen

Sterling work by my colleague @EmilyKHudson who was looking at London hotels late yesterday morning, in the capital by early evening and has been providing us with insightful reports into ‘queue life’ ever since. #QueuefortheQueen
My queue buddies as I report from the queue for lying in state near Lambeth Bridge. Strange - an almost jovial happy atmosphere, chatter - then I turn the mic on and ask about the Queen and the tears come. @BBCRadioSolent

Love this. A small moment of light at a time of such sorrow…
'...and the cheese stayed on the table!' Brilliant tribute to the Queen by former Prime Minister Theresa May...

Floral tributes continue to be laid in Queen Mother Square, Poundbury, where Her Majesty officially unveiled this statue on her last visit to #Dorset in 2016. One person here, laying a bunch of sunflowers, told me we’ve lost a “cornerstone” of British life. #QueenElizabethII

The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon. The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.
