I've been speaking to boaters trapped on the canal in #Bath Many river-dwellers are heading onto the K&A to avoid the Avon's winter floods, but a closed tunnel means they are all crowding onto a single mile of canal 'I’m just glad to get a place' one boater told me #LDReporter

It was a bit stormy on this morning's walk here in Glastonbury. Rain showers and very very windy.

On 21 October, we celebrate #AppleDay. Dorset and Somerset folklore tells of Lazy Lawrence, a green-eyed pixy pony who gallops through orchards guarding apples. His name is said to refer to the inability to walk after drinking too much cider: “Lazy Lawrence has got your legs!” 🍎

Autumn-flowering Cyclamen hederifolium has the curious old name ‘sowbread’, recalling the wild pigs said to root up its tubers to eat. Vita Sackville-West saw something altogether more delicate in its swept-back petals, likening them to ‘leveret ears laid back’. #FolkloreThursday

We can't seriously expect people to choose rail when it costs three times as much as flying. We need a clear duty on the Secretary of State and Great British Railways, to improve the affordability of travelling by train and make fares fair.
