Cancellations are absolutely shite but MASSIVE love to the party that cancelled, then still paid for their pre-ordered food, which they collected and donated to a homeless kitchen.

Sault charging £100 for a show in 3 days 😮‍💨

so katherine ryan wasnt even in the doc and yet shes being blamed, body shamed, abuse thrown at her for what? for a video that came out where she DID NOT NAME ANYONE. that's the reason why women dont come forward

I’ve been celebrating today, and six people I’ve have said “you’re pregnant!?” No, I’m celebrating that three months into my own business I’m fully booked and I’ve booked a trip to Paris. Can we stop assuming that a woman in her 30s must be pregnant if she’s got exciting news?

Food-loving friends. I am working on the launch of a new app that's launching in Manchester in October. If you have some nice pictures of food that you've made or eaten out recently, let me know. Will buy you a pint/some scran in exchange for helping with some testing. 🍻

@callum_berridge @Simon_Naylor must know someone!

looking for recommendations for northern working class theatre designers preferably with lived experience growing up in former coalfield communities preferably have been in working men’s / sports & social clubs before where you at? 👀

@HelenGradwell How am I gonna tuck it into my low rise cargos though

@NinaSawetz The last bit especially - can't do the work until they've responded. Or can give it a go and ultimately end up re-doing it. SO frustrating.

@HelenGradwell Have you heard of the perfect white t-shirt though? I've heard it's going to take your outfit to the next level 🫠

@eatcookexplore_ Cavendish in Cartmel is one of my all time favourite pubs!

Any tips on the Lake District? Best easy day hikes, gastropubs and food producers? #journorequest

I am very excited to be working on the launch of a new app for Manchester food lovers 🤪 watch this space!

Do you hang up on cold calls? I do, but I always feel bad for the person whose job it is to be ignored 100's of times a day

A new location, but the same stunning mural by the master @Akse_P19 of Ian Curtis 👏 It's World Suicide Prevention Day today, and there's support out there for those who need it via @GiveUsAShout who provide a free mental health text messaging service

Hospitality operators: are you planning a January discount? I would love to talk to you about why you are or aren't. And if you are, how? #ukhospitality

Hold on, the new @msmrsounds single is the Peep Show theme tune

Google Meet tell you how much time you spend looking at yourself in a meeting

@Simon_Naylor @bevcraig @ManCityCouncil Yes! The team behind it is doing amazing work but the next step needs to look at who can really impact changes for real situations - ie. night bus drivers! When it was released, I thought the overall tone was "tell women Manchester is safe", but it does seem to have progressed.

@fiionaking I was at a meeting with these guys the other day. @bevcraig was ace, the team were brill…But actually what we need is a #MansAwarenessCharter. Women aren’t the problem…asking them to be safe isn’t the fix. Sorry this happened. @ManCityCouncil - train the men. Reach the problem.

How can you believe in Manchester Women’s Safety Charter when a bus will close its doors on you to go and wait at a red light 10 yards away?

Hello wonderful friends! This weekend we had a tough one…a party booked that were unable to pay their required spend. This isn’t much to many but, to us, it’s wages for 2 staff! Although we’re chasing it, it’s a big hit. If you can, please do! ➡️53two.com/donate💙💜#Mcr

@53two Argh, this really sucks. Sorry!
