@quantick @liveid6 @EMFTheBand @theglobecardiff I tried, I really did! But it didn't come off this time.
Now, if I'd realised earlier than last nite R. March was support, I'd have thrown myself into the effort sooner w/ redoubled Brum vigour - Bentley's woulda sorted it out!
Hey ho; didn't go. Looks ace tho - well jel! Xx

Rehearsal over, God I Love playing in @EMFTheBand got some treats for you on tour. See you @theglobecardiff on Thursday

@FordTimelord I mean, you SAY that; but we've been busy w/ a LOT of Taskmaster, Bake Off, Limmy & podcast homework since we began season 2; & loads of non screentime shiz too (gigs, birthdays, Christmas, anniversary).
It's not like we've been steadily watching one ep per weekend!

myself and @bootbutton have been slowly working our way through twin peaks (my first time, not hers) and it feels like we’ve been in season 2 for eight years

@chris_hawkins @BBC6Music Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite.
Hey, I was a pre-teen, and it was about sweets and fairies and mice; and it was a (compatively) cheap example of one of those really pretty tiny records made of rainbows!! 🌈🌈🌈

@classytart He is flippin' great, innee?
I decided it would be a grand idea for me and my sweetheart to get around to watching Banshees for the first time on Boxing Day.
Oh, Jenny 💔
Oh, everything.

Cardiff Bus's ability to convey accurate info about public transport also up the spout, caught betwixt an underfunctional app, a phantom bus station, and a million temporary stops.
So no bitter tears of Peter von Kant at @chaptertweets this eve for me, either.

Srsly, who do I have to kill to find out whether one can buy a ticket on the door to see @EMFTheBand tonight?
It shouldn't be this hard to find that out in 2023, surely?!
English
@GlobeCardiff @EMFTheBand Any tix available on door?!
I know set's started, but can't buy online, and no info
I can find out re: ticket availability at venue ☹☹☹

@EMFTheBand @theglobecardiff @quantick And no getting in touch w/ venue/promoters. Been fannying round freezing my arse off in central Cardiff for the last hour, tryna suss out if any tix left to buy on door, and just getting colder & wetter 😩
Just wanna know if I CAN go to the ball, even if I miss kick off! 😄
English
@EMFTheBand @theglobecardiff Any tix left on the door, anyone know? Our kid @quantick gave me a heads up on this gig a few days ago, but I wasn't sure of my availability till a couple of hours ago.
By which time online tix no longer on sale 😭

Its artist may have been Florentine, but this zebra is clearly Neapolitan.

@daytriprecords @cardiffcouncil Roughly speaking, here's where a few services were (pre-)2008 and relative distances now - pink dot for National Express coaches, green dot for Cardiff Bus info shop (limited opening hours), yellow for Cardiff Central train rail. It's woeful. Bus info scattered &contradictory.

@daytriprecords @cardiffcouncil Since then, what remained of the station (what you'd have used accessing Bristol airport) has closed, partially reopened (ahead of the 2012 Olympics events here),closed again in 2015, & I've lost track of how many 'new bus stations' have been announced & scrapped.

Given that this capital city hasn't had a fully functioning bus station since early 2008, maybe you'll forgive my scepticism about your commitment to 'improved bus services', @cardiffcouncil.
Cardiff Council@cardiffcouncil
What are those changes? Well, going car-free is one of the best things we can do for the planet, so they’re pretty major - it’s the network of segregated cycle lanes we’re building, it’s the South Wales Metro being developed by Transport for Wales, it’s improved bus services…
