Martin Smith

Many thanks to Nick from @Ubuild_UK for leading a really engaging and hands-on session for 1st Teddington Cubs and @scouts #inspiring the next generation of architects, constructors and innovators

@theroyalparks @theroyalparks Auto closer on that pedestrian gate into Bushy Park was broken again yesterday (28th Feb). Needs replacing with a better product, not just a fix.

@MgsmithMgs Hello Martin, thank you for alerting us to this - we have made sure to let the park team know.

@theroyalparks Please can you ask the Bushy Park team to do some maintenance on this pedestrian gate? The auto-closer is broken again. Don't want to lose any deer! Near Ted Cricket Club, towards Dora Jordan Road

@RoyalMail Can you please straighten up the Mo Farah gold post box in @Teddington_Town (Broad Street, North Lane, TW11). It has been hit in the last couple of days when the road has been closed for EDF repairs. Their CCTV may help identify who hit it (not the red car in this pic)

@LBRuT_Help When will the footpath be resurfaced near Elleray Centre, Teddington? North Lane footpath has been full of puddles for years, trip hazard at entry to new Hall, puddles in tarmac at junction with Middle Lane. Accident waiting to happen, especially for senior citizens

@StravaSupport Any chance of an update to ticket 3198066? Was raised on 20th January

@StravaSupport Hi, still looking for an update to ticket #3198066. You told me it has been escalated to an agent but no actual progress. Help please

@StravaSupport Hi @StravaSupport Any update on when someone will be able to help with this?

@MgsmithMgs Hi Martin, we apologize for the delay as we are currently experiencing a higher volume of tickets. Your ticket #3199390 was merged into ticket #3198066, which was escalated to an agent. Reference your ticket status through your email or here: bit.ly/2BzpYqW Best, Kim...

@StravaSupport I have raised 2 support tickets today and both are marked "solved" but it is not. Please can you help?! Last ticket was ID 3199390

@StravaSupport How do I switch to a Family Plan? I can't find an option on my account. I have tried cancelling current subscription but you have now auto-renewed ne for another year!!

@LBRuT_Help Can you get drains unblocked and leaves/sludge cleaned from full length of High Street @Teddington_Town before #TeddingtonLightsUp on Thursday? Huge puddle outside @TeddingtonArms Road sweepers primed from 3:30pm to take advantage of parking suspensions?

@TfL can you change the signs in bus stop 01270141 please? All 3 are pointing the opposite direction from reality. Not sure if bus stop on opposite site of Broad Street @Teddington_Town has the same problem

@TravelodgeUK how do I contact you to discuss a booking which appears to have been lost, which I can see the payment on my credit card?

@VELUX Hi, how do I get a replacement cord for one of your blinds? Your website is sending me in circles and not helping?

@keithdunn @prodnose has just sold his extensive music collection via omegaauctions.co.uk so that could be worth a look Keith

Music collectors - where are the best places to find obscure, out of print vinyl and CDs? Related: I listened to Siddal yesterday for the first time in a while and remembered how much I loved their music. Elaine Winters was an absolute dream.

@keithdunn @JasminKParis Congratulations @JasminKParis #smalleuropeanwoman #BM100

Jasmin Paris @JasminKParis finished loop five of the #BM100 in 59:58:21.

@keithdunn @RndmForestRunnr Has John really not gone back out yet?!!

John Kelly @RndmForestRunnr and Ihor Verys finished loop four in 45:46:32, :36 #BM100

@LBRuT_Help Please can you urgently get this broken lid made safe? Teddington, junction of High Street and Vicarage Road. Too many vehicles cutting corner - need to ensure new lid is stronger

@cornish_jack @CityStrides CityStrides will suck up previous strava, garmin, etc data files and report what % of the London boroughs you've already completed, plus a measure against the 39298 streets of Greater London. Someone has managed 40% of it so far! I completed the Borough of Richmond last year

@MgsmithMgs @CityStrides At the moment I'm putting them on by hand onto a Google map plus colouring in my A-Z. I've signed up to citystrides and need to investigate further! jackfcornish.com/london

Hillingdon is probably the London Borough which I've explored the least, so I decided to go for a 13 mile wander at the weekend. A few things I found in the 🧵 below incl. this concrete bridge which carries an ancient right of way, the focus of protests in the 1900s & 1920s
