@drjoannehill Sounds like a great initiative and project. Sending all the collaborations vibes to your team and many more!

Thrilled to be spending the next few days at the @LSA2024! Today’s opening session has me motivated to finish that article I’ve been plugging away at over the past year for @WorldLeisureJ. I appreciated the conversation of reviews as a process of fostering development.

Arrived in Paisley for @LSA2024 and very much looking forward to the conversations. Might make a wee adventure to Glasgow and Edinburgh while here!

@SwissportBags trying to get support. Phone numbers at Glasgow airport are invalid, no response to emails, and no one at the airport is at the desk. Your bio says to private message, which isn’t an option on your twitter account. Help!!
