@ChesterChorus Great piece of music!

youtu.be/w7OAKTkqOrs The "Lacrimosa" in Mozart's requiem is so powerful Nike were using it to sell trainers more than 200 years later. Have a look, it’s a great ad. Come and hear it for real on 21st June. It's even better live! tickettailor.com/events/chester…

@drewhill79 Just noticed, the person behind her has got a whopping great rucksack!

@andyjashton I guess it was the ‘underfoot’ locker by the end of things?

Toronto crash: Hats off to her, plane flipped upside down but this lady still got off the with her massive bag. Do you think she calmly got it out of the overhead locker?

@hlpdesk_manair hi I have booked car parking with a non amendable booking starting at 1pm. I now need to get flight hours earlier in the day so need to park at 5am. Can I book another slot 5am to 1pm and the two will count as one session? Or do you need to drive out and back in?

@MartineBBC I am 40 days into a long cycling trip across Europe. The apartment where I am staying in Bailesti, Romania has BBC News. You don’t know me of course, but just to say it was great to see your friendly face and hear your excellent, always slightly wry, delivery.

V excited to be part of the @bbcproms this summer with @RNSinfonia!!🌟 🐉 🏔️
