So proud of my little boy going back to boarding school after four months away. A smile and an assurance that Daddy didn't need to carry his suitcase back to his dormitory. Daddy did though!

That's it. I'm going home to fill in my daughter's passport application form and eat. At one point we had 21 vehicles stranded. With help from some brilliant people in the police services of Assam, Jharkhand, Meghalaya and West Bengal we got them all back on the road.

Enjoyed seeing @WBPolice and @KolkataPolice playing such a prominent role in today's #azadikaamritmahotsav2022 celebration. A special call-out for the officer who stood in the torrential rain providing security for us diplomats. She is a 🌟. @UKinKolkata

To those across Odisha, West Bengal and my adopted city of Kolkata touched by Amphan, my most sincere wishes for an early recovery and a brighter future where we put the travails of the first half of 2020 behind us. #CityofJoy always was, always will be. @UKinIndia @UKinKolkata

This is the Grand Staircase @FCDOGovUK . I'll post the commentary in my next "tweet". Colleagues will be amused to know that when clearing out my Mum's house, I found a 1,000-piece jigsaw with this view. I'd bought it as one of Mum's Christmas presents from the old FCO Shop!
