Morning from a Sunny Looe and another day working from home. My thought for today is for everyone to try and do one act of kindness for someone a friend, loved one or neighbour. Make it a better place to live #StayHomeSaveLives

This looks fun and some great prizes on offer. We got beaches and fields we can socially distance in, so get creative giggers!

Absolutely heartbreaking to read this tonight. But the right decision and we thank the WPGC committee for taking swift and decisive action. This is a unique, special event in the gig rowing - and indeed rowing - calendar. The impact will be felt far and wide. 😥😥💙💙

Our crowdfunder has reached our first goal of £100k, a huge milestone on our mission to raise the £300k needed to buy the lofts With another £200k to raise, we can't slow down. The crowdfunder is still open and auctions are coming up so please help spread the word 💙 #Cornwall

It’s funny the memories that social media can throw up. Two years ago, myself and some *incredibly* talented colleagues at BBC Cornwall put together a special documentary on the World Pilot Gig Championships. (THREAD) Dick Straughan | BBC Bristol

So we made this, alongside all our radio work. We gaffa-taped mics and cables together, held cameras in one hand as we commentated with the other... basically, we busked it as we went along. But the end result was something pretty special. (3)
