The whole country will be deeply concerned by the news from Buckingham Palace this lunchtime. My thoughts - and the thoughts of people across our United Kingdom - are with Her Majesty The Queen and her family at this time.

Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova has said that the denial of entry to the EU for Russians who need medical services is outrageous. Maybe stop killing Ukrainians and we might be able to think about it?

Well here it is at long last, a year’s worth of work in print. I’m so proud to have played a part in its production, a document which will show the Army the way to fight wars until at least 2027. He who desires Peace, prepares for War…and gets bloody good at it!! 😂😂

Thank you everyone for your thoughts & messages. They’re very much appreciated. Here’s the proof of life photo taken by @monty_lyman. I’m home & pretty much back on track. I look forward to catching up with everyone in person or online over coming months. See you at DREI!
Thoughts with Rob Lyman as he recovers from his Sunday morning medical scare. Gifts of fine claret and unsmoked salmon have been prescribed, but ones of Beef Wellington & fine Stilton, I fear, are outlawed. Speedy recovery, mon cher ami @robert_lyman
