It's certainly not boring supporting Shrewsbury at the moment! Couldn't quite get it over the line for the win, but a good point on the road, and we are well in contention. Wishing George Lloyd a speedy recovery 🤞 #Salop 🔵🟠

Who or What am I? Hint 1: The upper leaves turn a deep purplish-red, especially when exposed to bright spring sunlight. They have a long flowering season that can begin in February and last until November. Second hint - I am aiming at before 1pm

A piano tuner lifted the keys of a donated piano in Shropshire and found 913 gold coins hidden underneath. The owner was never found. Peter Reavill of the British Museum on the piano hoard. #ArchaeologyRocks #treasure

99:43, down to 9 men and we still won 1-0! A great day to be a Town fan... What a result and so pleased for Lloydie 💙🧡 #Salop #STFC

My Dad used to do Littlewoods Pools (and Spot the Ball). We had a number of collectors over the years, latterly a nice chap called Richard (a fellow Town fan). Do you remember doing the Aussie games during the summer, Mon?

Hi Shroppie, I remember my father doing the pools. We lived on The Wirral back then. A man from Littlewoods Pools used to come to the house to drop the sheet off mid week and then collect it with the money. Whenever we went to see my godmother we passed Littlewoods Pools. It's long gone now.

Owdo me owd butties can you remember doing the football pools? Who with and who used to collect your coupon? A huge thank’ee to Sandra Twyford for very kindly allowing me to share her wonderful photograph of John ‘Jack’ Burgess and his dog on their rounds in Castlefields Shrewsbury

Who or What am I? Hint 1: A carnivore with no sweet taste receptor, but one with Jacobson's organ which allows them to taste scents. With more vertebra than we have they can they can rotate their body in mid air. I will attempt to put up the second hint around noon.
