@maudemuttley @alisonwallis60 @toontoon999 V&A certainly pays its public-facing staff peanuts

@victoriamoul @DrFrancisYoung In around 2008 I was being asked at school if the Pope told me to do something which the Queen had banned, which one I would obey. Tbh it was an interesting question

@SimoninSuffolk I think it seems entirely reasonable if they have had problems in the past with people using the cathedral as a free space for commercial activities (which the wording of this suggests) or they raise money by selling photographs of the cathedral commercially

@a_wassen Totally agree! I need to be smart-casual for the office and it's hard to find good clothes

[AnonymousAlto @AnonymousAlto]

@JohannaTC Miss Read - cosy with *lack of romance*

If you tell me to dance along pretending I'm a child again, you're not getting uninhibited boogie, you're getting someone hiding behind a curtain. Who else couldn't freestyle as a child?

@QuireMemes Bonus points if there's a page turn just before

Please don't make all your security questions about your spouse and children.
Some of us have neither.

@mcbryson @clhubes I once looked grits up. Still absolutely no idea

[AnonymousAlto @AnonymousAlto]

@clhubes Oatmeal. Is it porridge, is it oats, is it some sort of oat flour?

@musomusings @PatrickAllies I agree a folder is way more practical (and looks better) but I definitely sing better with individual copies - holding folders for too long gives me serious backache

@HelenaCooke8 I have never found a more strident hymn than O God of earth and altar

@joanna_mward Would you take an absolute beginner who just enjoys playing around with notes for fun but wants to improve? Or would you prefer someone with actual musical education/ambition?
