#ICYMI this week saw the 150th anniversary of the #Thorpe railway disaster, which killed 25 & injured 75. It's being remembered in a variety of ways - but by marking these big events, do we risk forgetting everyday accidents which hurt far more people? railwayaccidents.port.ac.uk/the-thorpe-dis…

Oh, this is very sad news. Tony Soper's passion for birds initiated my lifelong love of ornithology and nature. I'm sure many other enthusiasts my age were originally inspired by this great naturalist. That's some legacy.
