- Mon, 12:36: Immediately apparent how much more sedate the #tourdefrance crowds are today. Smaller and much less inclined to embrace Frenchness.
- Mon, 13:03: itv commentators talk bollox! Saffron Walden a town not a village and never known as Saffron Crocus (it was Chipping Walden) #tourdefrance
- Mon, 13:07: Saffron Walden is lovely but the turf maze in the park much more fun than anything at stuffy old Audley End #tourdefrance
- Mon, 13:08: Wondering if Hebden Bridge and Saffron Walden #quakers right on the route did anything to mark or support the #tourdefrance
- Mon, 13:13: Trying to get intelligent #tourdefrance coverage from France 2 instead of the #idiots at #itv but it's blocked :(
- Mon, 13:32: Is it my imagination or are there fewer ad breaks in the Essex stage of the #tourdefrance with not much going on? Is it 'cos it's Monday?
- Mon, 13:34: Also, much less yellow-jersey #tourdefrance whimsy on church towers etc. English emotional constipation confined to the SE I think.
- Mon, 15:28: Oh no, London is a lot of things but a beautiful city it ain't! Not remotely like Paris. #itv #tourdefrance
- Mon, 16:09: Yay!! Allez Kittel! Allez Sagan! #tourdefrance
