@DriverLiam98 As a signaller, with nothing to do with your early running, we will if can😊

I do like an early finish. Thank you Signallers for all the greens on 5U74 and allowing me to change ends at Wivelsfield last night. Keyed off at 00:57 instead of 01:43 ☺️

@nr147 @TSnooker102 @fanboxing42 Imho I don't think hight has anything to do with it, I'm 5 foot 10 and suffer the same things😂

@TSnooker102 @fanboxing42 If you come to the UK I’ll give you a lesson haha. You look talented but maybe rush your alignment as you look quite tall? I am too and it’s something that needs extra care when you’re tall. Can’t just slot into the shot like Xintong who’s about 5 7

I estimated that I've played about 2000 hours of snooker, and that's excluding the 5 years I practised on a pool table before moving to the real table. Still I struggle with potting basic balls and can't get near a long pot. That, if anything, is a clear sign of being untalented.

@stephen37292ML Its come down as far as the midlands

Great night to see the Aurora

@Champs707007 Heading through Worcester Shrub Hill earlier!

150231 arriving into Basingstoke off to the Mid Hants Railway from Derby.

@emmacruises If you could find all the new cruise ships in one place, instead of searching all the different cruise lines, it would be very helpful 😊

I gotta know, is there anything that really annoys you when you’re FINDING a cruise?! Some of the websites are so hard to use sometimes, it’s almost as if they don’t want me to book at all. 🤭👀

@TSnooker102 Go back to doing what you were doing before 😊

Unfortunately I think I have no choice but to quit playing snooker. Can't pot a ball to save my life. Technique is broken beyond fixing. My downfall is too sad to watch.

@wildey_1 @Exsnookerpro They are, 3p a mile from 2028 apparently. You'll have to estimate your mileage for the following year and pay accordingly, do less mileage, you'll get a refund, do more and have a bigger bill for the following year.

@MatthewTaylor68 @Exsnookerpro With the price of electricity going up and more people opting for electric the governments will lose revenue on petrol and diesel duty do you really expect they wont find a way of making that money up on EVs

Any electric car owners on here folks? Pro’s and cons of owning one please. I’ve had it on good authority that they’re decent. I know the government are backtracking on tax etc, but still cheaper to run than a petrol or diesel surely?

@Exsnookerpro @wildey_1 If you charge them at public chargers, then it'll be more expensive than a petrol or diesel car. If you have solar panels and charge it at home, it'll be cheaper. If buying second hand, then get a battery certificate, otherwise a new battery will cost £5000 plus!

@MatthewTaylor68 @wildey_1 What you mean🤷‍♂️

@Exsnookerpro @wildey_1 It depends on how you charge them!

@wildey_1 They must be cheaper to run overall, Wildey ?

@emmacruises Celebrity Apex, heading for Ponta Delgagda😊

Where’s the last ship you went on now?! 🤔👀 Norwegian Breakaway (mine) looks like she’s doing the same route I did in the Mediterranean. Sail safely big ship! ❤️❤️ App: The Cruise Globe (my free app) ⚓️🛳️

@PremierDarts @anonymous_darts 17

Our new Admin is playing in his pub league tonight Guess the number of darts he went out in a game of 501 and you might just win a prize!

@MWSnooker @markwil147 @leewalker147 Looking forward to it 😀

Do you struggle with finding the correct potting angle? @markwil147 snooker have something very exciting to show you soon… with @leewalker147

@driver__josh We're there in September, looks fantastic!

No words can do the Flåm Railway any justice🤩🤩🤩

@shellienic I'm a relief signaller for Worcester, so I work all the boxes, Shrub Hill would be the most interesting to visit!

@MatthewTaylor68 Consider that a big yes! Although I only drive under TCB, I’m still required to know AB. I used to sign Worcester as a guard as a diversion route for another TOC so I have some familiarity with Worcester.

Today I was excited to visit Birmingham Rail Operating Centre (formerly WMSC). This is where our Control are based & also all the Signallers for a wide area. An enjoyable & fascinating morning & hopefully will get to go back & learn more. #DayInTheLife #TrainDriver

@thecruiseglobe @thecruisemaps @emmacruises 13 nights 🌙

How many days do YOU 🫵 think this cruise was? 🤔💭 #guess #cruisetrivia #cruiselife #cruiseaddict #cunard #cunardcruise #thecruisemaps #thecruiseglobe #mappedmycruise

@emmacruises A i definitely the all-inclusive price!

ad • There is one cruise topic that divides opinion like no other. I’m firmly on one side and I’d love to hear your thoughts! 🫢❤️ What is it? It’s GRATUITIES! On a lot of the big cruise lines they’ll add an automatic daily gratuity (tip) to your account, per person per night. If I’m on one of these lines I just pay it upfront and view them as part of the cruise fare. 🙌🏻💰 What I do find annoying though is most of those cruise lines will add on an extra gratuity when you buy a drinks package and the one I was on most recently made us sign for each drinks again (with a chance to leave a 3rd tip on the paper). Bonkers! 🤭🥂 It makes me appreciate how the British cruise line Marella do gratuities and it’s one of the reasons why I love them so much. ITS ALL INCLUDED! The price is the price! No daily amounts added on, no gratuity added to purchases. Flights transfers and drinks are included too, it’s hard to go wrong with that. 🤭🇬🇧 Let me know what you’d prefer: A: I want everything included in the original price 💵 B: I don’t mind paying the cruise fare and then the automatic gratuities on top 💻 c: I like to tip in cash in addition/instead of automatic gratuities 💸 Marella have a £200 discount code at the moment so if you’re considering one anytime soon >> emmacruises.com/how-to-find-di… You’ll know that’s the price and there’s no surprises! 😉🫢 I have reviews of my 6 Marella cruises on my website and if you’re from the USA you can now book Marella with my recommended travel agents on my website!! 🥰😋

@crucible_pigeon @ChrisHammer180 That's a very intellectual answer from a pigeon 😂

As snooker fans, we love the World Championship format but will it attract future generations to watch? Could it be shortened or, as always, shall we just keep things as they are? Shaun Murphy, Neil Robertson, Mark Selby & Barry Hawkins have some interesting views...

@HfdsStreets Is there any chance the B4218 in Colwall can be resurfaced? Whilst New Street is bad, the B4218 at the Wyche Cutting is horrendous! It's not a good advert for 1st time visitors entering the county!

⛔ROAD CLOSURE REMINDER⛔ Resurfacing by Herefordshire Council as part of £13.5m investment in roads across the county B4216 - New Street, Ledbury 14 to 23 April 7pm to 5am Thank you for your patience during these works Closure and diversion route info: orlo.uk/M4qY3
