Inspired by The Dream of The Rood and @ClerkofOxford with the children @ChristChBath this Good Friday. We had some wonderful dramatic recitations of sections of the poem as well as decorating our own crosses, golden on one side and dark on the other #GoodFriday2024

@Emilio4Bath @MysteriosoX @MiddleStumpMich @bathnes @JeffMoodyJourno @BathEcho The Police and Crime Commissioner is "Tory" Mark Shelford - perhaps you should address your worries to him? Or perhaps you should stop trying to politicise a tragic incident? Trying to brand this as a "Lib Dem" problem is really quite appalling.

@Emilio4Bath @MysteriosoX @MiddleStumpMich @bathnes @JeffMoodyJourno @BathEcho I'm sorry Emilio. I'm not really engaging on Twitter any more because it's pretty toxic, but trying to associate "Lib Dem Bath" with stabbings is a new low. It's absolute nonsense.

Lib Dem @bathnes council apparently already have a violence reduction partnership that it leads. Is Dine saying a new group is needed? Has the current group failed ? Interesting revelation . What is happening in Bath?

@MattFinchMusic1 Hi Matt. Is Christ Church, Julian Rd, on your list?

I've contact 25 Bath based choirs this morning. I have another 15 on my list for Friday. If I have not contacted your choir yet - let me know as it may not be on my list and you wouldn't want to miss out! School Choir, Folk Choirs, Church choirs invited too!

Just fantastic to be at a live @bellowheaduk gig again. Brilliant musicianship. And So. Much. Fun.

@sweeneyfiddle *Fantastic* evening Sam. Just brilliant.

Bath - you were insane tonight!! Best crowd of the tour… absolutely bonkers. Thank you!!!! 🥰🥰🥰

(From the opening of the Prayer for the Queen's Majesty, in the Book of Common Prayer.)

Lord our heavenly Father, high and mighty, King of kings, Lord of lords, the only Ruler of princes, who dost from thy throne behold all the dwellers upon earth; most heartily we beseech thee with thy favour to behold our most gracious Sovereign Lady, Queen Elizabeth.

@exultatesingers @stjamespriory I remember that rehearsal - still a fair number of the same faces in that video! What a fine bunch! Happy Birthday @exultatesingers

We're celebrating our 20th birthday today! It's two decades since our very first rehearsal, which took place at @stjamespriory on 8 September 2002. Thank you for all your support over the years - looking forward to the next 20 years! 🥳

@HifiSean @boden_jon’s cover of Kate Bush’s Hounds of Love is top of my list, I think. youtu.be/IEB93XnXWCI

What’s your favourite cover version ? Links below please.

@KiwiinBath @HighCommonPpl @bathnes @CllrKevinGuy @BathnesParks Trying to find out who locked it. As far as Lucy and I are concerned it should be open. Lucy put a fair amount of effort into getting it opened back in April, and we know of no reason why it should be locked today.

Cooor - this is where my solo gig is tomorrow (Sat 18th) - Christ Church, Bath. Plenty of tickets available, you can buy on the door! Do come along 😉 @TheBathFestival @bathboxoffice @ChristChBath

Bath / Bristol friends - come to this, it will be excellent!

They seem to be calling it a "story and song show" and I guess that will have to do, but it was definitely greater than the sum of its parts so that doesn't do it justice somehow. Whatever it was, it was glorious. Thank you both.

Extraordinary evening at @RobGMacfarlane and @JohnnyFlynnHQ 's "Lost in the Cedar Wood" this evening. Not sure what it was. "Gig" isn't right. Not a "concert" or "recital". "Readings and Music" feels too cumbersome for something that was so coherent.

This show based on @neilhimself ‘s book is absolutely brilliant. Brilliantly staged, funny, and deeply, deeply moving. It’s only on until 14th May. If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend you see it.

Hi @VeygoUK - is you website / app broken at the moment? We’ve used you before. Trying to take out temp insurance for my son. The website doesn’t want to accept any input into the postcode field and the app won’t let us log in at all. Are you aware of a problem?

@JayHulmePoet Ahh... Bellowhead. Extraordinary group of musicians producing joyful, life-affirming, and moving music. Oh, and Best. Live. Band. Ever. Get to the tour in November if you can. @bellowheaduk

@StephenSumner15 @sgloscouncil Sorry to hear that Stephen. Good luck with the new role.

Some personal news from me - today will be my last day as an #LDReporter. Four years on from joining the original batch of journos in the scheme, I'm moving on to pastures new with a comms job with @sgloscouncil
