Thanks for inviting me to contribute to this important debate. @USWResearch @USW_PerfMedia @uswciri

@YorksCafe we were overcharged by £20 today when purchasing a breakfast in Birmingham. We have left a message but can't speak to anyone. Can someone assist is in getting a refund?

Here is a transcript of my final conference as a full time academic - up in Newcastle last week. paulcarr.org/2024/09/12/fin…

@Prudential - is you website playing up? When I try and log on to my account it just says 'bad gateway'?

@jwilli7 Well done Justin - really great news.

Pleased to announce that, from Aug, I will be Professor of Music at the University of Bristol. The country, world, and sector is in crisis, but would selfishly like to take this moment to celebrate and thank everyone for helping me to achieve this goal. Pictures of me professing:

Fantastic to see this project come to fruition. However, it is only the start - we need more venues on the map. Have a look and add your venue!

Yet another disrupted train journey when travelling from Cardiff to west wales. Once again booted out at Camarthen. @tfwrail really need to sort this / the service is not fit for purpose. It's just #easiertodrive. @BBCRadioWales @ITVWales

@PPLUK So sorry to hear this.

David Harmsworth, PPL General Counsel, died this morning after a short illness. David will be hugely missed by many, and we are all devastated. Our thoughts are with his family. ppluk.com/statement-on-t…

Call for book chapters. #Song #nostagia paulcarr.org/2023/09/04/cal…

@monekrueger Really pleased to hear this Simone - richly deserved x

I'm on top of the world today as newly promoted Prof. Simone 💃

We too were charged 110 euros last week by @Ryanair after trying to book in online for 2 days before flight and speaking to customer services. @eDreams gave us the wrong info, @ryanaire refused to correct the mistake. @BBC_HaveYourSay bbc.com/news/business -66500479. #ripoff

@eDreams I have booked a flight from Greece to UK tomorrow but yoru system won’t let me check in. I spoke to your chat and they told me I must check in at airport - no explanation. Can you help? Very disappointing service.

@samw4lsh @tfwrail Agree - my son tried to get back from H.West today - train cancelled with no replacement bus service that gets him to Cardiff on time. He came up from Cardiff on Wed - had to be picked up from Carmarthen. This is happening every week now!

@pcarr @tfwrail I second this. Every time I go back to Cardiff from Pembs of a weekend, usually a Sunday, trains don’t run from Haverfordwest any more, no replacement bus service either, it means having to find a way to Carmarthen and get on there, Pembs is getting left behind

@tfwrail is there a reason why EVERYTIME my son makes his regular journey from Cardiff to Pembrokeshire - his train is cancelled? Often in the other direction too? The service is becoming unusable!,

@zackmoir Yes all good thanks - starting hols tomorrow!

@pcarr Cheers Paul. Hope all is well with you.

I got the good news a week or so ago but received the contract today so now it feels real! On the 1st of August I’ll start my new role as a Professor. It’s very exciting and I’m hugely grateful for all the support and encouragement along the way!

Really sorry to hear this - Jen was not only a really nice lady but she also was a pioneering force in the Welsh jazz scene - she will not be forgotten. theguardian.com/music/2023/jun…

I am so very sorry to be reading of the passing of Jen Wilson, a tireless ambassador for jazz and jazz history, particularly in Wales. Condolences to her family and friends. theguardian.com/music/2023/jun… Thanks to @ldaviesmusic for alerting me to this.

@CTackley @ldaviesmusic Ah - I am so sorry to hear this. As you say a lovely lady and a really driving force.
