Shout out to Train Manager Mikey on @GWRHelp 1830 Bristol to London. Raising a chuckle on what’s been a long and busy journey up to now 🙂

@GWRHelp such excellent #CustomerService from your Chippenham Station colleague this morning. I’d have paid significantly more if I’d purchased from the online options available to me. Perhaps that’s what you want. Ticket Offices remain a vital service for so many people.

@charlottealexa It is the perfect activity for a day like today. What are you making with the stock (hungry and thinking of food on a train with several hours remaining…)?

Made veg stock today. Cannot believe I have not done this before

@LNER Hi Charlene I was on the 1503 direct from London King’s Cross to Leeds on 17 September

@AlisonCandlin Hello Alison, we can't speak for the Train Managers announcement but the timetable information such as arrival/departure times we get from Network Rail. What service did you travel on and I'll take a look? Did you have any connections? ^Charlene

@LNER 1503 KX-Leeds yesterday delayed by trespassers on the line. We were kept well informed. As we arrived train manager apologised one last time for our arrival being 34 mins late (it was). The app has it at 28 minutes and ineligible for delay repay. Why the discrepancy?

@MaiaDunphy She was the reward for sticking it out through all the insanity.

FFS. After all that, did anyone else call it quits and miss Celine?? 😫😫

@charlottealexa Even the people on the boat are looking a bit bemused

Light the torch , come on 🔥

@capswaggerstick @taskmasterhotel And Phoebe Waller-Bridge

@taskmasterhotel andrew scott????

jess knappet at the eras tour shes one of us

@SF_England Not so easy for supporting parents of a pre-internet loan era …

If you’re a continuing full-time undergraduate student, you need to re-apply for student finance before 21 June! It takes less than 30 minutes, re-apply today to make sure you have money for the start of term. Re-apply now: gov.uk/student-financ…

@charlottealexa @DrPeterWeeks1 And school academies seem a disaster for teachers and pupils …

@DrPeterWeeks1 I am thinking the post office, the Royal Mail, anything that has upscaled to save money. …and that is your answer

I am genuinely curious ,when a GP practice merged/became part of a large organisation have patient’s satisfaction with service increased ? has GP access improved ? Has the GP satisfaction survey results improved ? 🤷‍♂️

@GWRHelp @JohnLister1968 we could visit the boy

My breakfast view this morning has me thinking about how even a tiny shift in focus can make a huge difference to how things look. Don’t get me wrong - I love a building site - but the sunrise and even the ocean are just off to the side if you take a sideways look.

@JaneyGodley I had a pair of red patent startrite Mary Janes for about a day in the mid 70s. A bit risqué for my mother’s liking - I’ll never know why she agreed to buy them - but then she spied a scratch in the leather and returned them the next day for something ‘more serviceable’ 😭

Show me your favourite shoes from the 70s if you are old enough - check them out

@JohnLister1968 @omnis64 Pipe down, please, you two

@omnis64 Smashing that. Struggling here too 😉

@SF_England going round in circles trying to correct an assessment error. Submitted an appeal as advised, but rejected and told this is the wrong process. Can’t get any further advice. Phone lines impossible, live chat can’t handle off-script problems - how best to proceed?

Two bits of advice to those planning to go into higher education ● study what interests you and not what you think will get you a highly paid job. Life is short. You'll be happier, more fulfilled and probably go on to do better things with your life ● Don't vote Conservative

Hello @macmillancancer I’m walking as part of a team tomorrow at the #LakeDistrict #mightyhike. Do all team members need to pick up their number in person, or could one member of the team register us all together, please?

These flip-flopping, in/out school weeks are unbelievably discombobulating for children who need routine. They’re losing not just the days schools are closed but the compromised days around. Broken sleep, anxiety, brain overload and too much learning being lost.

@88Greener @GWRHelp 1902 from Pad just boarding 🤞 Good luck!

@GWRHelp You couldn’t make today up could you 😂 I’m hoping the 19.32 Pad to Yat is on still but nothing on the boards here at Pad.
