#bbcradio4 Your Thought for the Day segment is irrelevant and ostracising, it being given almost exclusively by a Christian leader. Likewise, Women’s Hour must be one of the most outdated concepts in this day and age. Time to catch up on the last few decades of social change

#bbcradio4 Dear BBC radio 4
You have nearly 7000 followers on Instagram but not a single post. If you are trying to reach a younger audience I think this is a wasted opportunity.

We're off the road for a while now and I've got a wicked recording studio at home good to go. So if you need some drums thumped on your record, then email [email protected]

Cheers!

Dad has dementia. Sometimes he drifts into another world and I feel like I’m losing him. He is never more present, however, than when he plays the piano.

He came to mine today and I asked him to play one of his compositions. He thought he wouldn’t be able to remember it.

Another example of the power of music in helping people with denentia 🎼

82-year-old Maurice used to sing professionally before being diagnosed with Alzheimer's five years ago. His support worker, Diane encouraged him to perform again and now he can't stop singing. 🎶

91-year-old Eileen suffers from anxiety brought on by her dementia. But get her listening to music and the change in her is just startling! 😍

#Music gives people caring for the person a sense of connection & identity that may have been lost. We also give those with #dementia some respite from the confusion in a safe & supportive atmosphere. 👏 Life Long Song #Chorley #M4D2020 https://t.co/j4vgBmM8iD

My grandma has had Alzheimer’s for about 11 years now. It’s hard for me to remember what she was like before, but that rare smile on her face is just a glimpse and reminder of the love I know she still carries with her. You have to appreciate the little things in life sometimes!!

@NOWTV or should it be nevertv? Just paid up for your services to watch GoT only to have the player shut down mid way through watching the first episode.... what am I paying for exactly?

Waited 7 hours for an engineer to turn up. Boiler apparently needs only a standard valve replacement, but the engineer didn’t have the part so I have to wait 2 days for it to be ordered which is 2 days without hot water! Paid £150 and still not fixed! Disgrace @247homesecure
