The web of the spiny orb-weaver spider is an amazing feat of engineering, built from multiple types of silk, each with a particular function.

I want to reassure Doncaster, the spike in cases from 25–31 May was due to widespread testing in our care homes. Where a number of asymptomatic cases were identified. Testing from 8-14 June shows significant fall. I ask that people follow the social distancing advice & stay safe.
We’re getting a lot of questions about the possibility for a local lockdown in Doncaster on the back of recent figures.
Here’s an update from our Director of Public Health Dr @RupertSuckling.

My Decision time cartoon for @WeAreCyclingUK.
(I stupidly put an unbranded version of this picture in a reply by mistake yesterday. If you post this image I'd really appreciate this one being used (and me + @WeAreCyclingUK credited) - thank you.)

It’s been a pleasure to produce this @BBCRadio4 #SundayWorship with great reflections from @FictionFox and @PeteWilcox1564 and lovely varied music from ‘I was glad’ to ‘Hallelujah Anyhow’🎶 bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000jfn…

Brilliant letter in the @thetimes today. Showing @JustinWelby 's true colours. When the cameras are off he is just getting on with caring for people - just like Jesus.

I wrote and recorded six short stories for Good Friday this year, under the title ‘I was there...’ imagining the responses of six different people to Jesus around his crucifixion.
You can listen to them here.

Profoundly moved and troubled, He weeps (Jn 11:35). We ask the Lord for the grace of weeping today before all the people who are suffering the consequences of this pandemic. May today be for everyone like a Sunday of tears. #HomilySantaMarta

“We must lead by example. Staying at home and demonstrating solidarity with the rest of the country at this testing time, is, we believe, the right way of helping and ministering to our nation.”

I’ve found that most problems aren’t rocket science, but when they are rocket science, you should ask a rocket scientist.
A great article on living well in isolation... nytimes.com/2020/03/21/opini…

Here’s an image of the remote licensing of @revsophiejelley as Bishop-designate of Doncaster earlier today. In the words of @LtotheJtotheB, ‘It was a happier occasion than the expressions on people’s faces might suggest’. @DioceseofSheff

Well, it’s not quite what I hoped to be doing at 11am tomorrow but I’m still looking forward to this! @DioceseofSheff @revsophiejelley #Bishop-designate #PrincipalCommissary

I’ll be praying the Lord’s Prayer with Pope Francis and millions around the world tomorrow. Please join us wherever you are. Prayer unites us in testing times. #PrayTogether
We want to respond to the virus pandemic with the universality of prayer, compassion and tenderness. Let us stay united. I invite all Christians to direct their voices together toward Heaven, reciting the Our Father on Wednesday, 25 March, at noon. #PrayTogether
