Took a trip to Melksham today to see my picture on display as part of the #DownTheLine photography competition for #Rail200 celebrating 200 years of railways in the UK organised by @TransWiltsCIC Also some ‘runners up’ pictures at Melksham.

.@TransWiltsCIC thanks to Bob and the team for selecting my picture for display at #Melksham station I hope everyone enjoys the picture. I must try and get across this weekend to see where it is, always nice to have my work on display doesn’t happen very often.

Thunderstorms have formed over the SW of England and Wales, as well as Ireland. As there’s clear blue sky around them in all directions, they should be visible from 50-100 miles away. Share a pic if you can see them! Image: @Windycom

Update on Flight Attendant… She was sitting in her jump seat directly behind the cockpit when Air Canada Express Flight 8646 collided with a fire truck on Runway 4 at LaGuardia Airport. On impact, Solange Tremblay, the senior flight attendant on board, was ejected more than 320 feet from the wreckage. She was found on the tarmac, still strapped to her seat. She was conscious for all of it. Her daughter Sarah Lépine called it "a total miracle." Aviation safety experts agreed, saying her survival was extraordinary given the complete destruction of the cockpit just feet from where she was sitting. Her four-point harness jump seat, designed to withstand extreme crash loads, likely saved her life. But Solange's fight is far from over. Her injuries are severe: two shattered legs with open fractures requiring multiple surgeries and metal plates, a fractured spine, skin grafts needed for the flesh she lost sliding across the tarmac, and complications that led to a blood transfusion. She still faces several more surgeries and intensive rehabilitation to learn how to walk again. Her daughter and cousin have set up a GoFundMe to help the family. The funds will allow Sarah and Solange's husband Denis to take time off work to be by her side as she recovers in a New York hospital for the foreseeable future. "My mother dedicated her entire life as a flight attendant and was very proud of her work," Sarah wrote. "Right now, my mom needs your help.”

It’s that time of year - folks asking us about #bumblebees - WHY THEY’RE SEEING THEM ON THE GROUND - so here’s a thread to explain. Please #retweet! Every queen that survives means a new colony that gets to exist & produce queen #bees for next year! So important to #share! 1/9
