@simonrug In Wales we can scarcely afford to lose the quality journalists and journalism that we have. Thinking of you and your colleagues Simon.

Even though I knew it was coming, still not a nice feeling opening the email this afternoon. After more than 30 years doing a job I love, it’s tough to know it could be about to come to an end. Thoughts with all my colleagues in the same boat.

More than 70 journalists working for Reach Plc in Wales are at risk of redundancy, staff were informed today. The NUJ says it's over half the workforce at papers like the Western Mail and digital services including Wales Online.

Recognition in these UK wide PR 🏆 would usually mean a 🎉 in London, but in covid times, it's turning the radio up, popping an extra sugar in the tea and reflecting on the life-changing experience of @homelesswrldcup Cardiff 2019 #CIPREXCEL
CIPR Awards@CIPR_Awards

For taking a multi-layered approach to deliver both results and a legacy that impressively show how strategic PR can be used as a catalyst for social change, our #CIPREXCEL Social Purpose Campaign Mark of Excellence goes to @WorkingWordPR for ‘Homeless World Cup Cardiff 2019’!

@JamesTCobbler It's fabulous to read that. I often use the Timpson shop in Cardiff city centre for repairs, watch batteries, straps etc and always love the excellent service I get. Needless to say I'll be going back 👍

The furlough top up for our colleagues to 100% of pay costs us £500,000 a week, not £500,000 a month as it says in today’s Sunday Times. It’s worth every penny to help our colleagues and their families through some tough weeks.

@josh_salisbury @agirlcalledlina The US gun lobby is but a pale imitation of the all-powerful UK garden centre equivalent. Our inalienable right to bear bedding plants. NRA wouldn't stand a chance.

@Sabresonic10 Fabulous series. My family is always amazed at the work of the researchers - not just the obvious well chosen contestants and locations, but how on earth do you set up the incredible job opportunities for contestants with employers who are so completely off grid??!! #InAwe

Brought you by #TimsTwitterListeningParty this list has 40+ recommended music books on it and a direct link from each mini-review direct to an independent bookshop. Like record shops, indie bookshops are part of our community, a resource, an inspiration. Let's support them.
Tim Burgess@Tim_Burgess

We got some music book recommendations from friends (and independent shops where you can order them). Check out the choices of @petepaphides @rocking_bob @Mr_Dave_Haslam @eavie_rose @Beathhigh @Markbeaumontuk @amy_raphael & me timstwitterlisteningparty.com/pages/books.ht…

@rhodritd @BBCWales Asking the obvious but do you have the rights to reshow the Euro 2016 games? Chronological broadcast of the entire campaign including build up and aftermath would be great. Don't mind if you don't show England game 😁

@ffwtbol I had completely forgotten about what was possibly the best save I've ever seen by a Wales keeper.

Sad that Nev’s save from Klinsmann has been largely forgotten. Very much like Banks in Mexico. #WALGER

Desperately sorry to hear of the death of the most consistently wonderful Cardiff City player in my years watching #CardiffCity - the incomparable Peter Whittingham. Thoughts are with his young family. So many happy memories watching him. Genius... youtu.be/simDhhSmM2Q
